I expected the usual size like a glass jar or L'Occitane lip balm, but was shocked to see the opening as big as a 500 won coin. Used it consistently for 2 weeks and the amount hasn't decreased at all.. Apparently, you can apply it not just on lips but anywhere needing hydration. Highly recommend for those with dry skin. Should be fine to apply around chapped areas near the lips too. ✓ No scent, no flavor, no taste I'm very sensitive to scents and tastes in lip products. Even if I like the texture and color, I tend not to use products with unpleasant scents or tastes (lip balms become paperweights..) Anyway, for a daily lip balm, if it tastes bad or smells weird? Straight to the drawer it goes, but this one truly has none of those issues. Highly recommended for pregnant women who are sensitive to scents.. ✓ Sun protection Need to observe this aspect more.. but it seemed to provide decent sun protection when applied around the lips and philtrum area that tends to get chapped
Cons✓ Greasy like a deep fryer For real... The moment you apply it, you feel like you just came out of a chicken shop These days lip balms have a nice dewy finish, but wow.. this one is so greasy it doesn't absorb at all.. Might be okay for stretch marks, but for lips, I'm really not sure.. ✓ Suggest reducing the quantity and price There are so many lip balm options these days for around 1,500 won.. It feels unnecessary... Of course, the sun protection is a big merit, but it's too big... Might expire before you can use it all up..

It's great that it also provides sun protection, so you don't feel like you're doing your lips a disservice. However, due to the scent, I couldn't bring myself to apply it to my lips. Instead, I used it on dry areas like around my nails, especially in winter! I love how moisturizing it is. Personally, I prefer thicker lip balms for my lips, and using a lip product on my body felt a bit sticky and uncomfortable. But this one is pleasantly hydrating. While the moisturizing effect isn't extraordinary, the hydration does last quite a while.
ConsThe smell is so overpowering it almost made me sick. As someone very sensitive to fragrances, the intense scent nearly made me nauseous. Also, it feels like it just sits on top of the skin without absorbing properly, so I don't think I'll reach for it often... As mentioned above, I plan to use it only on my body! While I was lucky enough to try it as part of The Hwahae Testers, this isn't a product I would have purchased with my own money.

The scent is lovely. It has a subtle, sweet vanilla fragrance that makes me want to use it constantly throughout the day. 2. It provides rich hydration. When I apply it before bed, I wake up with moisturized lips. 3. The quantity is impressive. Although it's a soft texture that might get used up quickly, the volume is more than 4 times that of a regular lip balm. I think it'll last me the whole year.
ConsIt feels more oily than hydrating and tends to sit on the surface when applied. As a result, while it's fine for nighttime use, it doesn't last long during daily activities. When applied to bare lips, it makes them look greasy, as if you've just eaten something oily. When used as a base for lipstick, it unfortunately reduces the staying power and color payoff of the lip product.
TipIt works well when applied before bed or under a matte lip product. It provides moisture while allowing the lip color to maintain a matte finish on the surface.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, I have a habit of picking at my lips, and if I don't apply lip balm even for a short while, my lips easily become dry and develop dead skin cells. Unlike other lip balms, this one has an 'oily' feel to it. The moisturizing effect is neither particularly good nor bad. If I apply a generous amount before bed, almost to the point of feeling greasy, my lips feel a bit softer the next day. I think it's great that it provides sun protection. It should be reassuring to use before outdoor activities in summer. And it's huge! I'm not sure why it's so big, but it's nice that you can apply it to both upper and lower lips in one go.
ConsBecause it's oily, it feels like it sits on the surface a bit. If you're looking for deep hydration or have extremely dry lips, you might not enjoy the feel of this product. I guess it's a matter of personal preference.
TipI think this could be good for use on areas other than the lips, so I've been applying it to the keratosis pilaris on my calves... I'm using it as a substitute for jojoba oil.

It's a big lip balm, so you're less likely to misplace it. The scent is a subtle vanilla and coconut blend as described, which is pleasant without being overpowering. It reminds me of milky candy or old-fashioned cream candies. While the hydration isn't extraordinary, its SPF makes it more suitable for sunny summer days than winter.
ConsWhen applied, it feels a bit greasy on the lips, and doesn't provide an immediate sensation of moisture, which is disappointing. Due to its large size, it's not easy to apply precisely along the lip line.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsHere's my review after using it for a few days. It seems great for outdoor workouts. The lip balm itself is very rich, so it absorbs well. It melts nicely at body temperature, making it comfortable to use. It's not sticky and feels quite light when applied. Sometimes lip balms can actually cause more dead skin cells, but this one didn't. Among the lip balms with sunscreen I've tried, this was the most hydrating. It has a vanilla-like scent and is wide, making it easy to apply. It's big enough that you could use it as a makeshift sunstick in a pinch outdoors. The case feels sturdy. Among twist-up stick products, this one had the most robust-looking case.
ConsWhile the feel isn't bad, it seems a bit lacking on its own for winter use. When applied to dry lips, it feels like it sits on top rather than absorbing. If you want to use it as a lip sunscreen, you might need to apply a separate lip protectant underneath. The size is too big. I'd like to carry it for outdoor workouts, but it's not very portable. The scent isn't strong, but I don't like it. Those who dislike sweet scents probably won't enjoy it.
TipI'll definitely take it with me for outdoor workouts. Thinking of it as a sunscreen, I believe it'll work well enough if I use another lip protectant and layer this on top.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsPackage: I loved that the container doesn't leave many fingerprints! It's also great that it's a simple twist-up lip balm. Being a solid balm rather than a tube type made it hassle-free and convenient to use. Quantity: True to its 'jumbo lip balm' name, I love that it comes with a generous amount. I used to think of lip balms as consumables that needed frequent repurchasing, but not with this one. Plus, its size being much larger than regular lip balms means I'm less likely to misplace it. Function: The UV protection feature is a major selling point. We know sunscreen is a daily must, and apparently, our lips need the same care. In fact, even office fluorescent lights and reading lamps can cause damage. So it's great that this balm provides both moisture and sun protection. I'm really impressed.
ConsTexture: The texture is quite disappointing. It's too slippery. Rather than feeling like it's absorbed into the lips, it feels like it's just sitting on top. After applying the lip balm, I'm very aware of the product on my lips. It keeps drawing my attention, which isn't comfortable. Scent and Taste: Given that this is a product applied to the lips, I expected more attention to these aspects. While I understand the ingredients are safe to ingest, the lack of taste was bothersome. It was unpleasant when the balm occasionally made its way into my mouth. The scent was similarly problematic. Being so close to the nose, it became quite bothersome. Even though the product might be effective, it's not one I personally enjoy.

While searching for a lip balm with sun protection, I was lucky enough to be selected by The Hwahae Testers! First off, it contains shea butter, which creates a protective layer on the lips when applied. Since my lips are quite dry, I apply lip balm frequently and generously. Thankfully, this comes in a large size, so it should last a while. Despite some drawbacks, I'm really happy with the UV protection it offers, so I've been using it regularly during the day!
ConsIt's a bit disappointing that the lip balm doesn't adhere closely to the lips, instead feeling like it's sitting on top. Also, no matter how much I apply, it dries out quickly. Because of this, it's not effective as an overnight treatment - you won't wake up with smooth, scrubbed lips.
TipSince it's a UV-protective lip balm, I'd recommend using it during the day rather than at night.

The biggest advantage is that it's a lip balm with sun protection built in.
ConsIt feels like it sits on top of your lips in an oily way. As someone who prefers matte lips, the oily application makes it a bit awkward to use before or after lipstick. However, it might be fine for those who only use lip balm or prefer moisturizing lip products. Lastly, the hydration feels a bit lacking. I think layering a tube lip balm over this might work better.

Compared to products that focus solely on hydration, this one applies incredibly smoothly and has almost no stickiness, making it perfect for daily use.
ConsWhile others mentioned the scent was pleasant and sweet without being off-putting, I guess it's a matter of personal preference. I felt a bit overwhelmed as soon as I applied it. It's somewhat bearable without a mask, but working in customer service, I can't avoid wearing one. When I put on the mask after applying this, the sweet scent kept lingering around my nose, which was quite uncomfortable. I don't think I'll be able to continue using it.
