Murad's Magic Balm . . .
I lamented to a friend that my lips kept chapping and peeling, no matter what I did. The situation had gotten so bad that there were tiny cuts in my lips; lipstick application just seemed to exaggerate the situation, but I never leave the house without color on my lips (I could easily pass for a ghost). I was absolutely miserable. She seemed relaxed on the phone, told me to rest easy, and not ...read moreto worry. I suspected she was up to something; a few days later, an envelope arrived at our home, with a tube of Murad's "Energizing Pomegranate Lip Protector SPF 15" and a note saying, "Here's an end to your problems." I love Murad products in general, and I especially liked the pretty sheer pink color of this balm and the wonderful smell. I learned early that a little goes a long way. It is not heavy or very glossy but does leave a layer of protection on my lips in a pretty, subtle rose shade. The layer stays on for several hours, even through eating and drinking. The real beauty of this product--and the reason why my friend sent it to me--is that it doesn't need to be continually reapplied. Pomegranate is a powerful antioxidant with its own natural sunscreen. It is actually a heavy-duty treatment. Dead, peeling cells are exfoliated from lips, and new ones are brought to the surface. It's not a "Catch 22"--apply, reapply, apply, reapply. After several days of using it, I found that I didn't actually need it any longer. However, I still continue to use it because I love the smell, the feel, and the shade. Just a word of advice: Since you're applying it to your mouth, use it on a clean finger so that the product is not contaminated in any way. It's another winner from Murad!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

MURAD ENERGIZING POMEGRANATE LIP PROTECTOR SPF 15
I got this and tried it and it was fine. My daughter has had problems with sore lips and even had cream from the doctors, which didn't resolve her problems long term. She has taken this off me now and she uses it every day and she hasn't had any more sore lips. She thinks it's great and so do I. It also has an SFP which many lip creams do not have! I love this product. Although it is rather pricey...read more, there is a LOT of product, and no matter how much I use it, the package looks full! (I've had it for 4 months now and have been applying every day.) Although people are saying that it looks like petroleum jelly on your lips, it really doesn't. You only need to put a thin layer of this on your lips and the glossiness stays on for around 2 hours. This isn't like MAC lipglass where the gloss is incredibly shiny and shimmery. This is very sheer and after the gloss is gone, it leaves your lips very moisturized and with a pink tint! I love this Murad product to DEATH. I highly recommend it. :) You won't regret! It is more of a gloss than a balm as it is very shiny and pretty. Gives my lips a light pinkish sheen. It is not at all lasting, even for a lip gloss - that suprised me actually. The taste is great and I love the fact it has an SPF in it so this will be great for spring and summer. It is pretty tacky and sticky. It just doesn't do a whole bunch. It doesn't moisturize any better than an actual lip gloss, nor does it treat chapped lips like a lip treatment should. Your lips need to be in perfect shape in order for this to look decent on. Packaging is cute and it has an angled tip. It has a pretty sheen to it and smells nice, but is a bit sticky.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 3 people said helpful

Nice texture to your lips
I love this product. I especially wear it on the days I am outside or extreme weather for extra lip protection.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful

Smells gooood.
This is a little glossy, but not sticky whatsoever. It smells great, and leaves behind a bit of colour. It also has SPF, and lasts a long while but doesn't stand a chance against food or drink as expected, though it does stay on for a few hours if left alone. It's a bit expensive to boot, but overall a good lip balm/light lip gloss if that if that is what you're looking for.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Murad Pom Lip with SPF
I have to admit that I LOVE this product! It is a treatment which is different from those temporary products like chapstick or carmex that only help for the few minutes after you apply them and make your lips addicted to them. This is a trement which exfoliates off the dead dry skin cells to bring forward the fresh hydrated and healthy skin cells. It does not require repeated use every 5 minutes...read more! Pomegranate is a wonderful antioxidant, it has 1,000 times the vitamin c of an orange! It also has natural sunscreen properties. Yes, you can get skin cancer on your lips too! I love that it has spf for when outdoors, my ONLY complaint about this product is that they do not make one without sunscreen! If I will be indoors and not outside or if I apply it before bedtime I do not need sunscreen and would prefer not to apply sunscreen on my lips when it is not needed! You barely need any of this product, a little goes a very long way and I NEVER touch my lips to the end of the applicator. I apply just a touch to my finger and apply that way. This ensures that no bacteria gets into the product and you can share it with friends if they are in need of some. It is excellent for prepping your lips for makeup application as well. Nice hydrated, smooth, and no dry flaky skin makes your lips ready for the best lipstick application ever! Great for makeup artists to have on hand as well! Great for traveling to dry climates, great for the beach or pool thanks to the sunscreen, and perfect for places like windy Chicago in the winter or snow/water skiing activities to not get those dry chapped, windburnt, and sunburnt lips! I give this product a 9 only because I think they need one with and one without sunscreen! I forgot to also add that it tastes so yummy, like pomegranate!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Love the smell
I like the slight color & shine this provides - so I only wear it when I'm going out. I haven't noticed that it is particularly moisturizing - but I have another Murad lip care that i use for intense moisturizing. This is a fun, lip product to use & I like the spf factor!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Quality- only need a little
I have had this for about a year. You only need a little bit. It isn't the type of gloss to last through you eating and drinking all day- but it lasts awhile. It smells nice helps my lips A LOT. I love that it has SPF. It is great for the summer and winter weather.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Moisturizes well
I love the consistency of this gloss, not glopy or sticky like other glosses. Only downside is the slight scent. It looks pink in the tube, but it does not add color.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

Really awesome
Really awesome product, adds just enough shine without being sticky and actually lasts a decent amount of time. There's just enough color to brighten up your lips as well.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
