I bought this after trying other good Rosebud Salve lip balms, wondering how this one would be. It works well as a summer lip balm.
Cons
When I first applied it to my lips, I felt a slight aversion to the scent. But I got used to it quickly, though in my opinion, Mint Rose or Rose were better.

🐷One-line Review Recommended for those looking for a refreshing, moisturizing lip balm. 🐷Usage Experience I've tried both the Salv and Mandarin variants, and the texture is slightly firmer compared to Salv. While Salv melts and glides on like a liquid, this one applies a bit more thinly. But because of that, I've been using it for a very long time without running out.
Cons
🐷Fragrance The citrusy mandarin scent may be appealing to some, but I personally found it a bit artificial-smelling. But fragrance is a matter of personal preference. 🐷Packaging After using it for years, I've found the tin case to be quite disappointing. The edges tend to discolor over time, and the lid doesn't close tightly, so I've gotten into the habit of not closing it all the way. That's why I've recently switched to a tube packaging, and purchased the more spreadable Salv variant instead.

There are so many of them!! It seems like I've been using it for almost a year, but there's still a lot left... And the tin case is so pretty! I fell in love with this tin case at Olive Young and bought it. It may look like it will have a pretty color payoff, but it's actually colorless. The moisturizing power was also really good! When I apply it generously before bed and sleep, my lips are in such great condition the next day. And it's not too sticky or too oily, so I'm very satisfied!
Cons
The scent might be a bit polarizing,, At first, I thought it was fine, but the more I used it, the more I got tired of it and felt averse to it, so I use it along with several other lip balms!
Tip
If you apply a lip color and then put this lip balm on top, you can create a lovely glossy, hydrated lip look! The moisturizing power also lasts a long time and is great!

Apply it before bedtime and it will help with great exfoliation the next day!
Cons
If you apply it when you're active (awake), it tends to cause a lot of yogurt-like effects ㅠㅜ So I only apply it when I'm sleeping ㅠㅜ
Tip
Apply it before bed and gently rub it off with a towel after washing your face - this is the ultimate way for exfoliation!

I've been using the same company's products since I first tried the original Rosebud Salve about 7 years ago. During that time, I've tried the original, strawberry, and this rose mandarin variant, and out of the three, the rose mandarin is the most runny and the most moisturizing. The scent may be divisive, but I've grown accustomed to it after using it for a long time. I've tried most of the well-known lip balms - from Burt's Bees, Eos, Kiehl's, Carmex, and Paw Paw Cream, to Korean drugstore products and those sold at pharmacies like Manyo and Green Cross. But I haven't found anything that surpasses this lip balm yet. The main ingredients are the same as Vaseline - petrolatum. While Vaseline forms a protective film to prevent moisture loss, these lip balms get absorbed into the lips, making them feel soft and moisturized, and they also do a great job at exfoliating. That's why I always apply this lip balm before bed.
Cons
The tin case lid can be a bit tricky to open sometimes. And the rose mandarin variant in particular has a very soft texture, so it might melt easily in warmer temperatures. It's not sold in Korea anymore ㅠㅠ Now you can't even find it at places like Olive Young, so I can only purchase it through overseas direct buying.
Tip
In terms of texture, moisturizing ability, and softness, the order would be: Strawberry < Original < Rose Mandarin I'd recommend using the strawberry variant for carrying around and using before and after makeup, while keeping the original and rose mandarin at home to use generously before bed or when your lips are in very dry condition.

This is truly a life-changing product, but why did Olive Young discontinue it?
Cons
The price range is a bit disappointing, but it's worth stocking up when it's on sale.

My lips were very sensitive, and nothing seemed to work for me, but this product is perfect for me! It's moisturizing and long-lasting, which I really love!!
Cons
It's a stick formula, so you have to be careful in the summer... It's heat-sensitive and can melt. Ugh, it's not a big deal when it melts, but when it melts and gets all messed up, it's a total disaster...

My lips get really dry, and even in the summer, I have to reapply lip balm every hour because they crack and peel. But after using this lip balm, that doesn't happen anymore. It absorbs quickly and the moisturizing effect lasts a long time!!!
Cons
Sometimes it takes a while to open the lid, so I can't apply it right away when I want to.
Tip
You can use it as an emergency treatment not just for your lips, but for other dry areas as well.

I've been using lip balm constantly, and this lip balm was just so good. The amount is generous, and if you apply a generous amount before bed, your cracked, peeling lips will transform into beautifully moisturized, glossy lips!! The moisturizing effect is not too oily, but just the right amount of hydration. The scent was also so lovely ㅠㅠ
Cons
The lip balm is a bit pricey. But I think there's a good reason for the high price. Of course, the amount is generous as well!!

It seems like the perfect expression of all the glossy, luminous, and radiant terms one could use. The application is incredibly smooth, like melting an orange candy on your lips.
Cons
Aww, as shown in the photo, it melts and drips down a lot, probably because it's so soft... It even gets all stuck to the lid.
Tip
Don't leave it in a hot place, keep it on your desk.
