Since my birthday was just over a week ago, I received my Sephora gift, which I was so excited for! Previous gifts have been a mini Sephora eyeliner and shadow duo (nice but not my colors), and the past 2 years have been Philosophy’s birthday cake shower gel, which I hated because mine always smelled plasticy and expired. I’m glad Sephora finally decided to step it up to these adorable lip balms from Fresh. I’ve heard time after time how awesome their lip treatment balms are, so I was excited to finally try them out without paying anything.

First off, the packaging is awesome. It’s just like a mini version of their regular ones, so they don’t skimp there! It even screws on so your chapstick doesn’t open and ruin your purse! These smell amazing, like sugary lemon. They are the same product, but the rose one is tinted pink, obviously! I think the balms are very moisturizing and feel very heavy (in a good way) on the lips. The only problem for me was how soft they were. I had a problem with them smooshing and breaking in the tube, causing a big mess. I also wouldn’t recommend them for purses in the summer, because they melt very easily. I don’t know if the full size version have the same problem, so I’m not sure if I’d recommend them!
