I'm on the fence about this product. I typically love products from this brand as their cleansers did wonders for my super dry peeling face, so I expected something similar for my dry lips as it is a “transforming care for very dry lips”. When my lips were a little dry and barely peeling I would use it and it never really did much or last. So good balm, sure! Good for peeling lips, not at all! The formula is different for me also, the stick is actually really hard in texture, but it still goes on smooth on the lips. No major shine, but I think because it's so hard, you don't get much product cause it seems like your lips warm the product and it then transfers to your skin. So I think due to a lack in product that may be why it's not much of a treatment. There's no scent or flavor.
