Balmessence Lip Treatment

I live in Utah. The climate here has freaked out my skin and lips. Add to that I have lupus and a lot of allergies to most skin care items. I am constantly on the look out for lip products that help and don't taste like the most awful thing ever. I have tried other more expensive products ($60 for 0.32oz) with disastrous results. I also go thru tubes of lip masks a month that cost $25. So I didn't think too much about trying this item with a $35 price tag, however, I was floored when I had the product in my hand. It's small. Like "oh my goodness that's tiny" small. But it didn't smell bad, I wasn't allergic to any of the ingredients, so I tried it. Mine is pretty solid so I didn't use very much and I like it a lot. When I lick my lips there isn't a horrible taste. Most of it soaked right in so there is no glossy lip look going on. I use so little that I know it will reduce my agave lip mask purchase from $300 a year to almost nonexistence. While there is less than half the amount of product than I was expecting, I use less product less often thru out the day. This will be an overall cost saving for me. The packaging is nice, but I will have to take extra care and not leave it floating around in my purse since I think the lid comes off too easily. Before choosing to purchase consider the size and whether it is a justification for your lip. For me, so far I love it and will continue to repurchase.

Winter has been sucking the life out of my lips. They have been dry, chapped and difficult to soothe. My normal go to are the Fresh Sugar lip tints and balms. Yet, they haven't been able to soothe my dry lips for more than 20 minutes, as of late. And I don't want to repeatedly reapply lip balm throughout the day.

I have a new favorite lip treatment. I winced at the $35 price point; then decided to give it a try as my lips were on the verge of cracking. I am not disappointed with my decision. From the moment I applied my lips felt relief. Due to the density and weight of the lip balm a little went a looooong way and it adhered to my lips. I apply twice a day. Thanks to Mary's review I think I might add it to my night routine before bed.

Oribe Balmessence Lip Treatment was a great buy and a welcomed addition to my beauty routine and a treat for my lips.

I listed a review in June 2017. I've been using this for more than a month now. This lip treatment is working BETTER than I hoped. Great things come in small packages. I use only at night now and occasionally during the day (twice during the day this week). I have been able to remove all other lip products from my routine. I still have 3/4 of this product left. I do keep it in a cool place to keep it solid. I love it.

I love lip products.. lip treatments to clarify. I always move on to the next, typically without even finishing the product.

I had to rebuy this after finishing one I purchased in January. I’ve never had softer lips. Many lip treatments will add hydration, but only lasts temporarily. I put this on in the morning and I’m good until mid day. I prefer to wear it on its own or with a shear lipstick on top.

I put it on before bed and wake up with pouty lips !! I love it.
