Personally, I carry it with me everywhere and apply it generously throughout the day.

While I didn't find any particular drawbacks, it's worth noting that this is a cooling-type lip balm. Those with super sensitive skin might want to steer clear.

I'm a frequent lip balm user, and I'm thoroughly satisfied with both the feel and formula of this one. I've repurchased it multiple times and am currently using it. I even stocked up on a few more!

메디케이티드 립밤

Usually, I apply lip balm to both my upper and lower lips, but with this one... phew! I wouldn't dare do that again (at least for me).
I'd recommend just lightly applying it to your lower lip and then pressing your lips together. That should do the trick!

I wouldn't say it was disappointing, but it might not work for everyone. In my case, I noticed some swelling on my upper lip after application.
(It might have been working a bit too hard!)
If you have super sensitive skin, you might want to be cautious with this one or consider a different lip balm altogether.

Wow, this product really worked its magic! I was genuinely shocked at first by how effective it was.
The hydration level was moderate, and it's a decent go-to product when you're dealing with those pesky dead skin cells. Just apply it occasionally when you notice flaking, and you're good to go!

If this review was helpful, please give it a like.

There's nothing particularly disappointing!
However, if you have sensitive lips, it might be irritating, so choose a different lip balm!

As you can see from the photo, I've used it up to the point where you can see the bottom, and I'm leaving a review because I love it so much...
✅Texture: It's not as sticky as other lip balms. Even if you apply multiple layers, it feels clean. Since it's not sticky, I recommend using it in summer.
✅Feel: Right after application, there's a cooling sensation due to the menthol ingredient. I personally enjoyed the refreshing feel.
✅Packaging: The outer design is sleek, making it suitable for men to carry around too.

It's sold at a much lower price in Japan, so I tend to stock up when I'm there

While the cooling effect might not suit everyone, I personally don't have any complaints

• I love the cooling sensation, it's really appealing
• Skin feels smooth immediately after application
• Absorbs well and has decent staying power
• The price is wallet-friendly

Pick these up when you're traveling.
Sometimes they're even on sale for about a dollar!

The hydration isn't as intense as pricier options, but it's so affordable you can keep them everywhere and apply frequently.

I went on a shopping spree at Don Quijote and got a ton of these. It's definitely a Hwahae moment, and I'm feeling great about it!
The price is unbelievable - about $1.50 each. You absolutely must grab these!

진짜진짜 없어요;; 그냥 완벽합니다ㄷㄷ 짱짱 강추!!

사용해보고 너무 좋아서 일본에 갔을때 왕창사왔어요!! 일본에서는 2개에 2천원도 안되는 가격에 팔고 있어서 부담없이 바르기 좋아요!! 한국에서 사도 타사 립밤들에 비해서 효과도 좋고 가격도 저렴한 편이라 많이씩 바르기 좋아요ㅎㅎ 저는 밤에 자기전에 듬뿍바르고 자는 편인데 바르고 자면 아침부터 밤까지 하나도 한트고 부드러워서 매트립 바를때 각질부각 1도 없어요;;ㄷㄷ 특유의 민트? 박하향과 쿨링감이 있어 여름에 사용하기 좋을 것 같아요!!

There's nothing to complain about - it has a slightly warming sensation while also feeling refreshingly cool.

It melts with a firm consistency, so you can use it for an incredibly long time.

수시로 여러번 발라주는 게 어떤 립밤이든 효과를 보는 거 같습니당

겨울에 사용하기에는 입술이 시려워요. 여름에 쓰면 훨씬 좋긴합니다.

쿨링감 매우 미쳤어요. 각질도 잘 가라앉고요. 보습력이 매우 좋습니다.

Just keep it with you and apply it whenever your lips feel dry.
I carry it around like it's a part of me, and I feel anxious without it...

There are no downsides... at least not yet... What more can I say about my savior?

I've been using this lip balm for almost 3 months now, and I'm already on my third tube after finishing two!

About three years ago, when I started using lip tints, I discovered that my lips are quite sensitive. For the first few months, everything seemed fine, but gradually my lips' condition worsened. I'd wake up with crusty discharge, sometimes even with cold sore-like bumps, and my lips would feel rough and textured. It was really uncomfortable and painful, and I even had to be careful when opening my mouth.

So I began trying various lip balms, but none of them felt quite right. Vaseline was somewhat better, so I used it a lot. Then I heard somewhere that the Mentholatum lip balm was good for lips like mine, so I immediately bought it and tried it... and it's great! My lips aren't in perfect condition yet, but before, when my lips got completely dry, it was unbearably difficult. Now it's... let's say, more manageable.

Anyway, thanks to Mentholatum, my lips have really improved a lot! When you first use it, it feels a bit firmer than other lip balms, but as you continue using it, it just feels so good. It's not sticky or moist, and it doesn't have that oily feeling typical of lip balms, which makes it even better.

Oh, and it's a cooling lip balm with a minty scent! This might be a love-it-or-hate-it feature for some people. But if you haven't found your go-to lip balm yet or if you have lip concerns like me, I really recommend giving this a try...

Nothing really. There's a slight menthol-like tingling sensation, which might be uncomfortable for those who don't like that feeling.

Honestly, I think this is the top-tier lip balm out there.
Unlike other lip balms that seem to just coat your lips with oil,
this product truly shows you what deep hydration means.
It used to be available only in Japan,
but now it's easier to find since it's stocked in Daiso stores.

Sigh... Is this a solidified pain relief patch?

I had high hopes for this lip balm since it was highly recommended on Japanese shopping lists, but I'm disappointed with everything from the scent to the texture and application. The smell is like a medicated patch, despite claims of menthol. It feels like applying solidified liquid pain relief patches! The texture isn't a soft butter-like consistency, but rather a solidified transparent gel - if you're familiar with Bl*st*x clear lip balm, it's exactly that type. It's an unusual texture for lip balms, and one I personally dislike. The application is terrible. It's stiff, lacking any hydration, moisture, or softness, and doesn't last long on the lips.

I remember buying this in Japan for about 1,000 yen each, which was quite affordable.
