What it is
This lip balm plumps and smooths lips that tend to become rough and hard. Its adhesive coating formula locks in moisture inside the lips, preventing dryness and protecting the surface from external irritation. Designed for lips with a thin stratum corneum, it contains moisturizing ingredients like "moisturizing ceramide functional ingredient (humectant)" and plant-derived moisturizing ingredients. It penetrates the stratum corneum of the lips, increasing moisture density. It also contains an anti-inflammatory agent (active ingredient). It prevents rough, cracked lips.

I've only just started using it, but it's neither good nor bad! I ran out of the lipstick I was using before, so I tried Curel, which has good reviews. I personally like it because it's fragrance-free and doesn't bother me after application. If I continue to use it and it's effective, I'd like to buy it again.
I was running out of Mentholatum lipstick so I bought some for the first time in a while. I use it as a lip primer and it doesn't dry out my lips, so it's great!
This is my favorite stick-type lip balm. It doesn't melt smoothly and sit on your lips, but rather it applies thinly and moisturizes. The next lip balm you apply doesn't slide off, making it easy to use, which is a plus.
It's so good that it makes you wonder what your worries were. It doesn't dry out quickly and stays moisturized for a long time. My lips were always peeling, but since I started using this lip product, the chapped lips have healed and my lips have stayed beautiful. I'm so impressed!
I'm using my second bottle. I have sensitive skin and my lips get dry easily, so not everything suits me, but I bought this one because I thought it would be okay for sensitive skin. It's easy to use and doesn't dry out my lips or leave them sticky.
