"Super neutral. I think it could actually go over a lot of my lipsticks just for a touch of color. [...] That's hard to get out. Also very sheer."

"I finished off one of the Naturium Phyto-Glow lip balms. It was all right, I just would not put it in any of my favorites."

"Cupuacu butter, Plant Squalene and Geodiamond pearls. Leaving lips soft and shimmering. High shine formula and sheer wash of color with luminous finish. Contains natural vanilla flavor, nourishing and hydrate lips for $12. You have Stardust, which is a frosted baby pink. Eclipse, Supernova, Cosmic, Orbit and Galaxy. I love the original formula anyway, so if it's the same deal, I'm going to really like these. And I do like it has a bit of a shine to it. Not everyday wear for me, but for other people it is. I love this applicator. I love that little dip in the applicator, means that it's going to pick up a little bit more product. Some product is going to sit within that dip and you're not going to have to go backwards and forwards, reapplying it. It's kind of like a standby. I really do like the shade range. That nude, I think that's beautiful."

"I picked up the Naturium Phyto-Glow Lip Balm. It's actually not a lip balm, I don't know why it's called that, it's a gloss but it's kind of a heavy hitting gloss. Straight off the bat I didn't like it. I just found it really sticky and I just didn't dig it. I did like the color, which I'm wearing right now, it's called Jam, but that was about it. Over time I found myself reaching for this more and more and I came to realize it actually has better staying power than any of the other glosses I own. I also really love the little doe foot applicator, it's just perfect."

"When they launched this product they only did colored versions of it which gave a nice lip tint, but for a lot of us we want something that looks natural on the lips that doesn't add any additional color but just works well. These are packed full of nourishing ingredients and a wonderful blend of oils which are going to deeply nourish, hydrate, and actually prevent irritation. The clear is completely transparent and it dries down to such a nice finish. It's not dead pan matte so you definitely have a touch of gloss from this, but that's what a lot of people do enjoy. This will last you all day. Apply it in the morning, apply it in an evening, and pretty much that's all you need. You might want to take it with you for a little top-up during the day but it's not one of those lip balms you have to reapply on the hour every hour, which really is a sign that they're not working. This delivers, and it's £10 here in the UK. I'd say this is kind of the upper price point that I'm willing to pay for standard lip balm, and this I think is worth every last cent, penny, pound of that because of that beautiful blend of different ingredients. I absolutely love this."

"What I like about these as well is they don't shift. They don't shift at all. They stay in place. They're the right consistency as well. They're not too light, they're not too thick. They transfer a little bit like any lip balm does, but more of the balminess and not the tint. I feel like I get my money's worth more with the Naturium Phyto-Lip Balms just because they stick around for a lot longer."

"I have every flavor and I absolutely love them. I love a natural kind of like sheen to my lips, so hibiscus in particular is my favorite for a glowy lip that's kind of like my lips but better and juicier. They have phyto derived esters, shea butter, and squalane, so you get this really nice moisturization without it being sticky like Vaseline, you know, whilst nourishing your lips. It's a really nice option to go for if you want to play around with a bit of color whilst also caring for your lips."

"I have the Naturium Phyto-Glow Lip Balm in the shade latte, so it's really just going to be the shade of my lips, but it feels so good and I love to be glossy. I wear it all the time."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
