Within the framework of stick (solid) lip balm, there doesn't seem to be any particularly disappointing performance aspects. I bought a Philips automatic coffee machine and needed a coffee oil-specific cleaning agent, so I bought it directly and the cleaning agent seller gave it to me as a free gift. Before that, I didn't know the Valera brand, so I just thought it would be similar to Nivea lip balm just by looking at the appearance. I used it vaguely, but when I actually used it, it was quite nice!! It's not sticky, has little shine, is not greasy, is light and has a refreshing feel, which is good for daytime use, and most importantly, it's a lip balm that can be partially edible, so it's made with mineral oil-free ingredients, providing mental and physical stability. I can't say much as a Jeju native who buys nicotine, but at least I want to eat lip balm with good ingredients. Among the strange stick lip balms, there are some that get drier and drier the more you apply them, but this is not one of those. It doesn't recharge moisture or remove existing dead skin, but if you swell the dead skin with a lip serum the night before and remove it well in the morning, this can prevent the formation of dry and painful dead skin during the day. I'm satisfied with this level.
Cons
1. If you are someone whose lips are constantly cracked and dry every day throughout the four seasons, 2. And you are also someone who finds it troublesome to carry and apply lip balm consistently, 3. And even though you can't resist peeling off those thick and hard calluses, 4. You are still in a state of care with lip balm applied. It's as if you're in a dilemma of the lips, where even the feeling of moisture is suffocating. You've been suffering from this for 35 years. That's me ๐ค. There is always a coexistence of calluses, wounds, and scabs on my lips. 1. The freshly formed calluses that make your mouth water before peeling, 2. The half-peeled calluses that are frayed like lace around the edges, 3. The wounds that are bleeding from just having been peeled, 4. And the scabs that are recovering from yesterday's peeling, all coexist peacefully, forming the ecosystem of my lips. The reason I still like this friend is that it's less suffocating and bearable. However, I can't expect much in terms of moisturizing effect. When I buy a highly moisturizing lip balm that is known for its great effects, the suffocating feeling bothers me, and I unconsciously lick and eat it, or I just bury it and don't apply it, letting it rot until the expiration date. But I can tolerate this much. This is the limit of my compromise. If I had to choose between unsustainable high efficiency, sustainable low efficiency, and the inefficiency of the average person, this friend seems to be the most reasonable choice as the sustainable low efficiency.

The fragrance is nice and it seems to be well moisturizing. It's fine to apply it frequently.
Cons
The moisture feels like it disappears quickly, but you should apply it frequently.

- It has good value for money at around 2,000 won. - The yellow color of the product is cute. (I couldn't find any other advantages when using it...)
Cons
- It has almost no efficacy as a lip balm. No matter how much I apply, it only lasts for a moment and there is no moisturizing effect. - The strong vanilla scent is not very pleasant.

It's affordable, applies smoothly, and has a nice fragrance. I liked the purple case since I'm fond of that color.
Cons
While it applies smoothly, it doesn't absorb well and leaves a lingering feeling.

The only positive I can think of is the relatively affordable price? ๐ To be honest, it's hard to find any real upsides.
Cons
It has a slippery, uneven application. It feels like oil and water, with no moisturizing benefits whatsoever - a real disappointment. The Vallea ampoule was good, but this lip balm just doesn't work for me.

I've been using the one my friend gave me. It has a nice fragrance and applies smoothly.
Cons
1. It's not moisturizing enough. 2. It accentuates flaky skin. 3. It lacks lasting hydration, requiring frequent reapplication.
Tip
If you apply it regularly, it might not be too bad.

It's affordable in the 2,000 won range, and most importantly, the moisturizing effect is amazing. The scent is also nice, and it seems to have the best cost-effectiveness.
Cons
There is absolutely nothing disappointing.
