I have both Blush Basin and Scarlet Soaked. The former is almost exactly the same color as my natural lip, while the latter is a very pretty and bold shade of red. It goes on smooth, and definitely has been helping my chapped lips - my lips tend to dry out and chap if I go a day without lip balm, but this is a good substitute. It lasts for a few hours, but I've noticed that the color fades a little after 15 minutes or so - it's not a 'long-lasting' color, but lasts long enough for most situations. It doesn't seem to get caught on my teeth like some lipsticks, which is a bonus. I haven't had any irritation from this product, but I don't usually get irritation from lipstick anyway. I would combine this with a lip exfoliator for best results, because it does a good job to keep lips moist once you get the dead skin off, and perhaps some translucent powder if you prefer a matte finish, since it's quite creamy.

I must admit, I'm torn between 2 and 3 stars for this lipstick. While I love the color of my Sunset Cruise (just pink enough for pulling off a “no-makeup” look), the texture has become grainy and uncomfortable to apply, almost as if it had bits of sand mixed in. More's the pity, because it didn't start out that way. I still use it though, because if I'm careful, the lipstick CAN go on smoothly. It would just be nice NOT to dread reapplying it during the day, and it would be great NOT to be reticent about buying another color because of the poor quality of this one.

Burt's Bees Lipstick is a fantastic product to wear everyday. I have Fuchsia Flood which is on the pink side and it looks good on me. I like how it glides when I apply it. Its not a matte lipstick so you'll feel a bit of moisture and see a bit of a sheen when applied. I still put on lip balm underneath because my lips tend to dry up. Even though the brand is known for lip balms, this is a lipstick and has to be reapplied often. I would definitely purchase this in the future & try different colors.

I love this lipstick! It goes on smooth and makes my lips feel smoother while I'm wearing it. It is moisturizing, not drying out my lips as many lipsticks do. You might consider it more along the lines of a colored lip balm. The bold magenta color draws attention to the lips without looking gaudy and goes well with a variety of clothing styles and colors. It's easy to wipe off when you want to remove it, but unfortunately that also means it rubs off on everything your lips touch, i.e., glasses/mugs, silverware... If you get it on your teeth it does rub off of those easily too. It doesn't have much of a taste (doesn't taste chemical-y as many lip products do). Because it rubs off so easily, I would recommend bringing it with you so you can reapply. It's about the size of an average lipstick tube. The corners of the tube are a bit pointy, though not sharp enough to hurt yourself on when reaching into your bag, and not sharp enough to make me concerned that they might damage any of the bags that I carry. It is nice that the tube doesn't roll. This Burt's Bees product is made in the USA. The ingredient list is in one of my pictures, for those who like to know what's in their cosmetic products. Overall, I am quite pleased with this lipstick. I love how smooth it makes my lips feel and the confidence boost it gives me!

The lipstick is not too creamy, not too stiff, goes on smooth and stays put for a long time even when drinking from a water bottle. It does not dry out your lips and make them peel. And it is not greasy or overly shiny. My only complaint is that the Fuchsia Flood is NOT the same color as in the picture advertised. I wanted the deep almost purple shade in the photo, but it is more of a baby doll pink. Luckily, I'm pale enough to be able to wear it. But it is not a dark color. I also like the case. Since it is rectangle rather than round, it does not roll off the table or the counter top.
