Perfect Gloss - 03.13.10
It gives just enough pinkish (and even can go red if you add more) tint and it smells lovely. I give it as a gift to all my friends (it is hard to remember who I have already given it to!).

Smells Awful! - 03.08.10
Worked well enough, but I couldn't get past the terrible smell. Reminded me of fish. Returned it.

A very soft balm that protects my lips and adds some natural color! The rose scent is very pleasant too!

Liked it but.... - 02.24.10
I liked this product but couldn't stand the smell! It smells like...I'm not sure what to compare it to - maybe grandma's lipstick with a hint of plastic?
As for the color and texture - Yes! I am fair skinned and it gave a nice hint of red and was not sticky at all.
If the smell were different I would repurchase but I can't stand it...sorry.

Gives a nice subtle colour, like lip gloss, but not sticky at all. Would purchase again. Would probably look good on any skin tone.

New Love - 02.15.10
Quick Take: hydrating

I've seen this product before but was always real hesitant about it because I CANNOT rock red lips, but just recently one of the benefit counter girls at Macy's put it on me and I fell in love. It can be a real sheer color that looks almost pink, or you can layer to achieve the red lip. It's not super long lasting, but it's a lip balm so what do you expect. Very moisturizing and convenient. Like I said, LOVE!

Very Hydrating! - 02.06.10
Quick Take: hydrating

I love this lip balm. It moisturizes and gives my lips a natural rosy tint. It is not sticky at all. The scent of it is okay for me because it is not that strong, rosy smell anyway. I use this every morning when I am in a hurry for school. It has a tint, it's moisturizing and it has SPF. Loove it!

What took me so long to get this?? - 01.28.10
I have used cheek and lip stains for years. I use Benefit's Posie tint on my cheeks but didnt like how it wore on my lips. I finally purchased the benetint lip balm and quickly realized this was the product I had been looking for! I am a fair skined red head so this turns a pretty wind-burned rosy color and it looks fantastic. I LOVE IT!

Not much color but nice consistency and texture - 01.18.10
Quick Take: hydrating

Very nice lip balm. Don't buy for color--it's barely there but it's a great non-sticky gloss that hydrates and is super cute. I like a pot as much as a stick style so it's fine, but keep that in mind--it takes 2 hands to apply!

Very Hydrating. Nice glossy finish. The colour goes on very sheer at first but is completly buildable. So sad i lost this, and it is no longer available in canada :(

Moisturizing - 01.08.10
Quick Take: hydrating

This balm is very moisturizing, but I was disappointed that it didn't have more color to it. It also had a very odd taste to it, sort of like shampoo.

Pretty color - but dries lips out - 01.02.10
This is a lovely berry stain that looks great on lips, but leaves them feeling dry and cracked about 30 minutes after you put it on.

Very Sheer - 12.28.09
I like this balm and the color it gives my lips but it's more sheer than i expected and I wouldn't complain except you can't really layer it. It's a little moisturizing but I find it gives my lips that wrinkled look. I like this a lot better than the actual tint though because it applies evenly.

Good but not great - 12.23.09
Quick Take: hydrating

Good color, divine smell. Problem is that it doesn't last, considering it's marketed to be a 'stain'.

Quick Take: beautiful

I love this...I have very light skin and it still looks great. I never wear red lip color, but this looks great on me. I gave it 4 stars only because of the price, but I think if it lasts a while it would be worth it and I would buy it again.

i usually am shy about colors for lips and normally go with nude colors. but this rosy red is great, i love that it's a lip balm. very hydrating, especially for the winter. and it helps give me some color so i dont look like a corpse. smells great and easy to apply.

Rosy color that brightens your lip - 12.14.09
I will forever be a fan of BENEFIT! THis lip palm gives my lips a hint of red which brightens up my lips,but it sometimes it does dry my lips. I recommend putting on lip conditioner before putting the lip palm.
