Really good lip balm. Great formula and nice scent and application. Bit pricey and can probably find a cheaper dupe but still love this product.

It’s alright
Just like the lip mask it doesn’t really do much moisturizing for lips, they are similar but I think this one is formulated differently and a bit lighter, but the gloss is pretty. And the flavor is yummy! For the price and size it’s probably not worth it for $18. I think there can be better dupes for this.
