How to use
Use by extruding about 1.5cm. If you extrude too much, it may break. It spreads easily, so apply it lightly 2-3 times. After use, pull the lip balm back down fully and close the cap. If you do not pull it down fully, the lip balm may stick to the inside of the cap. Do not store in high temperatures. Do not use if you have any abnormalities such as cuts or eczema. If you experience any abnormalities such as redness, itching, or irritation, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.

I've tried a lot of cheap lip products, but this is the most moisturizing.
I was looking for a lip balm with UV protection and bought this. It's moisturizing and easy to use! I've used more expensive ones, but I think this is good enough.
I gave this to my elementary school-aged child as a sunscreen lip balm. It's short, so it fits easily in a uniform pocket. It's not overly flashy, so my child has no problem carrying it. It's yellow, so it's easy to see. He also likes that the cap is long, so even little hands can easily open it. It's scentless, so he says it doesn't bother him even when wearing a mask over it.
I think this lip balm has a mild texture and is easy for anyone to use. I use it as a base for Lipmon. Depending on the drugstore, it is sold at a very low price, so it's easy to try.
I've been using the fragrance-free version of this series for quite some time now. This is my first time using the UV type, and it's similarly fragrance-free and easy to use. This might be a good choice for the seasons when UV rays are a concern.
