Blistex Lip Infusion

This is what Blistex has to say about Lip Infusion:

Blistex Lip Infusion is a unique liquid lip balm that glides on with an ultra-smooth rolling tip.

A lip balm like no other
Blistex Lip Infusion is a liquid lip balm with an ultra smooth rolling tip. The applicator is
stainless steel – it feels cool and smooth on your lips.

Sheer liquid balm
Blistex Lip Infusion has a liquid formula, so it feels light and comfortable on your lips even as it
moisturises and protects.

Penetrating formula
Blistex Lip Infusion bathes your lips in moisture and the sheer liquid formula goes in quickly and
deeply for effortless hydration. It leaves your lips feeling soft as silk.

SPF 12 – Moderate Protection Sunscreen PABA-Free.

And here's what I think:

This is a really strange balm, and not one that I'm particularly fond of. I wouldn't call it a balm, because it's not moisturising at all. It's a very thin gloss, that only lasts for about 15 minutes and needs to be constantly reapplied. The roller ball does give a nice cool feeling when I apply it, and it has a pleasant, sweet taste, but that's about all I like about it.

If you're looking for a very light, non sticky gloss, then this is the product for you, but if you're after a lip balm, don't buy this!

Would I buy it again? No way.

Ingredients: octyl methoxycinnamate, oxybenzone, benzyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol, butyl hydroxybenzoate, cresol, butylated hydroxyanisole and saccharin.

  1. I didn't like this one either. It just felt dodgy to me. Other than the cool feeling of metal on my lips when it touches them, this did nothing for me.
