Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love it!! I love this so much I've used it a few times and it makes my skin look so glowy and healthy!! There's some fragrance but it goes away after a bit.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Youthful look I love this balm! It definitely not a primer...but I looove the hydrating look it gives the skin. I'm 32 and my skin is starting to look more mature(genes). This balm is definitely one of my go-tos, specially when I'm doing a more natural look. It's a little bit on the sticky side,but nothing that feels heavy or something you won't be able to stand.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pocket-sized Moisturizer! The first time I actually put a bit too much (to be fair it said 'apply all over skin', so that's literally what I did lol), so it made my face greasy and a bit itchy as I have sensitive skin. I was a bit disappointed as I had hopes for it. But then the next day I tried applying just a bit at a time and blending it in, and it worked perfectly! I use it as a moisturizer, so being pocket-sized, it is very convenient to carry around. It has a nice, fresh feeling, and smells spring water-y, if that makes sense. Overall it gives my face a nice, fresh, dewy feel.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Messy! Leaves my skin oily and sticky. The idea of reusing a stick on your face doesn't sound very hygienic to me.Also not a lot of product in there! Not to mention my order said it would come with a free lip stain and it didn't.
