As someone who constantly deals with chronic exfoliative cheilitis, I've been using this product for a long time without any blemishes. Among the 15+ tinted lip balms I've tried as a beauty enthusiast, this one has the best color payoff and looks the prettiest. While other tinted lip balms may have slightly disappointing colors, this one can easily substitute for a lipstick. Plus, it doesn't turn pink over time (yay!). Being a natural product, I didn't expect much in terms of staining, but it actually stains quite well! Most tinted lip balms fade after drinking water a few times, but this precious product is one of the few that still has color left when I'm leaving work, even after applying it at lunchtime. What's really amazing is that the color payoff became noticeably more vibrant after about 2 weeks of use! (I didn't use any other color cosmetics except this product)
Since it's a natural tinted lip balm, it's best not to have high expectations for its longevity or staining power. While it's really good compared to other tinted lip balms, you obviously can't compare it to regular tints!
