@CookieGirl1, I'm always a bit torn when it comes to fragrance in beauty products. I'm generally all for a good scent, though with skincare, I'm even a little more hesistant since it can cause skin irritation or a reaction, and I can appreciate the value in having a product that is unscented, if it's truly unscented. In that sense, the scent or lack thereof in these balms wouldn't necessarily be a dealbreaker or 'con' for me, though seeing that one named "latte" sure makes me think that could have been an amazingly scented lip balm. ☕  There are plenty of lip balms out there that are scented and work well so for me, I'll just have to see whether this one outperforms the others, even without a delicious scent.

[CookieGirl1]

@itsfi I guess I also tend to wonder if (without the added scent) these will smell/taste a little too strongly of SPF.  

[Loretta55]

I definitely agree with your assessment @CookieGirl1. Inn Beauty Project should reconsider at some point changing their formula on their lip balms to scented.

[CookieGirl1]

@Loretta55 even something generic like vanilla would be better but unscented?  I feel like I'm going to smell/taste the SPF without something to camouflage it.

[faeriegirl]

@itsfi  I will be INN as soon as I use up a couple of lip balms I have open!

[itsfi]

@faeriegirl, that’s a good approach.

[ather]

@itsfi  You definitely know I’m INN!! Oooo this brand has been really nailing products lately! Fingers crossed this one is a winner too. Although with all my tinted balms I may need to have a match up of my tinted balms!!! 

[itsfi]

" a match up of my tinted balms" - that seems like a very logical and fair approach to determining which tinted balm is best suited for you @ather! 😁 Ohhh, I bet you could line up some fantastic lip balm match ups. 😍

[ather]

@itsfi  lol thanks!! 😊 maybe this weekend I can set up the contenders!!! Hmmm 🤔 I wonder if I have enough balms to really do a match!! 

[itsfi]

You got this @ather! I suspect there will be multiple rounds of match ups. It may just take time setting up the various matches, to make them as even as possible. Or, maybe you don't make them even and go the route of the NCAA March Madness set up where the top ranked team faces the lowest rank team in the competition. Oh, all these possible match ups. Looking foward to seeing what you come up with. 

[ather]

@itsfi  Oooo I’m liking the way you think!! 🤔 I will have to get my contenders ready!! And see what type of match I can do!! 

[missjeanie]

@itsfi I'm telling myself that if I can get rid of two lip products I can order one.  I feel like I just saw another line release a new balm in the last week or two.... dang now I need to remember who it was!

[itsfi]

Might it have been EADEM Le Chouchou Exfoliating + Softening Peptide Lip Balm @missjeanie?

 

[missjeanie]

@itsfi I found it!!

[CookieGirl1]

@missjeanie I wish that we had the brand in the US!  Some of their products look pretty good.  Have you tried anything else from them?

[missjeanie]

@CookieGirl1 I haven't!  I have a few friends who love the brand for their other SPF products but none have mentioned a lip balm at all. 

[itsfi]

Ahhhh, I have heard of that brand @missjeanie. There have been a few things from them that have caught my eye. I didn't realize they launched their own tinted lip balms, but, again, of course, they are!! 😆 They're only available at Sephora Canada. Sephora USA doesn't carry that brand, but they are available through other online retailers.

[missjeanie]

@itsfi I've heard of the brand from a few friends who are Australian.  They speak pretty highly of it and I was quite excited to see it show up on Sephora Canada.  I need to work though a few SPF products before I order more but... an order shall come!  

[itsfi]

The thing about SPF is that it will be put to use, right @missjeanie?!! That's awesome that Sephora Canada stocks it. Definitely let us know how you like it when it's time to give it a go.

[missjeanie]

@itsfi Yes!  I realized at one point last summer that I had to toss a few of them due to expiry dates, this is the only part of my stash I really worry about the expiry dates, so I'm *trying* to be better lol

[itsfi]

💯 on SPF expiration dates @missjeanie. I tossed two; fortunately they were ones that were not tops on my list, but still. I don’t like having to toss something because it was my fault for getting to it so late. 😔
