I love this product. I bought it on here initially but had some problems with the product so I was given a refund.
It had nothing to do with the product per se but rather the delivery issues.
Anyway- if you want high protection for your lips- spf 30!- smooth feel- staying power for hours: this is the balm!
My sister uses this daily because she has a horse and is in the sun every day. Aside from face sunscreen, she wanted something more appropriate for her lips.
She loves this stuff ,too!
I wear it bare. She wears it with it under her lipstick and both the balm and lipstick last for hours.
She said it actually acted like a lip primer!
And she has noticed if she wears it and just lines her lip with a lipliner- then fills it in with the liner, the color stays.
How's that for a product that protects against the sun but also lets you have color on your lips if you want, and helps it stay?
A winner all the way around. Oh, I am also hooked on Alba Botanica's UN-PETROLEUM. A product that moisturizes and removes make up. It is formulated like Vaseline but without petroleum jelly or that petrol smell!
(Rread up on the internet why Petroleum Jelly is not a positive thing to have in products)
Since you are on Amazon browsing- why not give both products a try-they are usually available on Amazon for a very fair price!

Good alone or over matte lipsticks and glosses.
I wear a lot of matte lip glosses and they dry out my lips and also make my lips look wrinkly when they are on. I bought this Alba Botanica lip balm to use for hydration and over the matte glosses.It has a faint scent of vanilla, certainly nothing strong, and no taste. It glides on smoothly and leaves a bit of sheen behind. It is a bit heavy but feels protective. It only has SPF 18 in it which is sort of a let down. It would be great if it were SPF 30 or more so I could wear this in full sun but at least it has some sun protection. It looks good over my matte lipsticks and glasses and, because it has no petroleum, it doesn't make them smear or lose their long wearing abilities.For under a buck, I am happy with this balm. If it had more SPF, I would be super happy. Still it does the job well enough although it IS a tad heavy on the lips.
