Review of Fresh Sugar Lip Balm Duo

Fresh- Sugar Lip Balm Duo

Today's post is going to be a quick review of a lip balm duo that I got as part of my Sephora birthday gift. These are mini sizes, so the regular size is going to be bigger than the tubes shown in these pictures. 

The set comes with two lip balms-the regular Sugar Balm, and the Sugar Rose balm, which has a pink tint. Both of them have SPF 15. 

The regular Sugar Lip Treatment is just a clear balm, great to use if you're lips are super dry, or if you need a base for another lip colour. 

The Sugar Rose Lip Treatment is the same formula as the regular, but with a rosy tint instead. It looks a lot brighter in the tube than it actually is. 

Here are swatches of the two. The regular is on the left, which you obviously can't see much of, but you might be able to see a bit of shine.

The Rose one is on the right, and as you can see, it's a pretty toned down pink, which looks nice and natural on the lips.

Now that I've talked about the colours, I'll talk about the formula.

For starters, these lip balms are VERY THICK. The downside to being so thick is when you put them on, they seem to just sit on your lips instead of actually sinking in and making your lips super soft. They leave an almost greasy feel.

They are very moisturizing, more so than any other lip balm I've tried. You just have to make sure to rub your lips together to work it in. 

They are also very creamy. If you leave these in your pocket, or in a purse, they will melt. And for the price that these lip balms, you can't afford to let that happen!

Overall Rating: 7.5/10 

I would give them a higher rating if they weren't so thick. But once they do sink into your lips, it's worth the extra effort.

These cost $26-28 CAD for a regular sized single lip balm at Sephora. 

Thanks for reading!
