When applied during normal to good lip condition, it moisturizes the lips and adds a nice sheen. When my lips are in good condition, the moisturizing effect also lasts a long time. I don't necessarily need a lip balm, as my lips don't get very dry even in the dead of winter, even when I use matte lipsticks or mousse-type products. I just carry it around to apply when I feel like it or when my lips feel bare. But since I'm a lip balm enthusiast, I've tried pretty much every lip balm available on the market in Korea. If there are any I can't find in Korea, I even have them purchased through proxy shopping services so I can try them all. I have acne-prone and seborrheic skin, so I'm taking Accutane, but it has no effect on the chapped lips caused by the side effects... I bought this even though I knew it was for chapped lips, but it had no effect, so I ended up rotating through several other lip balms to find one that works for me. I stopped taking Accutane for about a month, and recently started taking it again, but tried this lip balm again, and it's still ineffective. It feels lightweight and oily, so it seems to just disappear really quickly. I have to reapply it every 5 minutes. Since my lips are in such poor condition, I don't get any deep moisturizing feeling, just a surface-level effect. The severely cracked and bleeding parts of my lips aren't healing at all. For severely dry, cracked, or peeling lips, you'd be better off trying a different product. The price varies across pharmacies, but I think I paid around 5,000 won. But it's not really worth that much... It's not as thick and waxy as Vaseline, but has an oily, slippery texture, so it's not a good idea to apply it thickly like a mask and sleep in it at night. And since it's so oily, you should apply it after completing all your other lip makeup, or else it will just cause everything to slide around.
