This is a nice colored lip balm. The color is quite pink, but still very natural. I find this to be quite expensive ($6-8) for a lipbalm. I don't find this to be as moisturizing as a lip balm, but as a lip tint, it does slightly stain your lips. The stain does last for quite a long time, however. The packaging is made of plastic, and that ruins the structural integrity of the tube, as it is prone to breaking very easily. The twisting mechanism is also prone to breaking, and it doesn't always twist up properly. For the price, I think the packaging should be much better.
I have since ordered the berry and orange shade of this. All of these tints have Red 6 Lake (CI 15850) which is the ingredient that causes it to change color, so all of these turn pink to some extent. The pink one turns a light fuschia color, the berry turns into a berry pink, and the orange turns into a coral color. The berry one is my least favorite of the bunch, as it changes color unevenly on the lips. I'm a little surprised at the color variety offered as other lip tints change colors to the same pink.
I have enjoyed this product, it gives me a nice color without being too overdone.
Pro: A little goes a long way, bright colors, feels nourishing on the lips.
Con: Tiny bit sticky on the fingers but not on the lips
