I've used this product for years. It never disappoints.The first time i purchased this item from Nordstom-$85, it was pricey and it worked great. The second time i purchased it, i bought it on Amazon for $20 less, but it does not have the same effect. It does not penetrate nor moisturize as efficiently as before. i do not know why the quality is not the same, but it is not the same. i'm sending it back. Opps, there is a no return policy! Spend the extra money and buy it at the dept. store, they will at least take it back if the quality is defective.I've been using La Mer lip balm for years and loved it but got bored, so I tried this one. I'm super disappointed... La Mer one made my lips super moisturized and soft, but this one, just stays on your lips all sticky without being absorbed, not doing much for my lips. :(This is a deceptively small container. It's expensive, but I only put it on at night (before bed) and in the morning (maybe a small amount in the afternoon). The balm is very moisturizing and as with all Sisley products it is just the best. I struggle spending that much on a product which to some seems insignificant, but I live in a very dry climate and this, along with other Sisley skin care items seem to do what no others can. Really... no more cracked lips, even in my climate zone.I did not see anything special in this Balm for it to be so expensive. La Mer's Lip Balm is expensive but it does wonders on lips like, mine are more Pink and plum... This one, its an Ordinary CVS Balm with High Price Tag.I have a lip balm addiction. I have tried, and rejected, practically every product on the market and just settled in, unhappily, with carmex for life. When my godmother gifted me a pot of this, I was certain she was nuts for spending that sort of money. But it is worth every cent. One light coat before I go to sleep at night and my lips are still moist and gorgeous in the morning. And none of that scary stuff that goes into carmex (I don't even want to know). This stuff is pure magic.Stop wasting your money on other lip balms and buy one that finally works. This is the most comforting, healing and hydrating lip balm Ive used, and I have tried them all. It really is more like a treatment. In case you aren't desperate enough to spend this kind of cash on a lip balm yet, the closest lip product I've found to this one is the Dr. Hauschka lip care stick.It’s expensive but it lasts forever (like over a year for me). I keep it by my bed and use it nightly. There is no frangrance whatsoever which is good for me because I’m extremely sensitive. It’s hard to find a product this nourishing while also being hypoallergenic. I will never use anything else!Excellent although slightly pricey bit worth the price. Leaves lips very soft, forgot what it felt like not to have dry lips. Put in at night and wake up with baby soft lips. Haven't found a better one and have tried quite a few!Very good lipbalm I am normally not a fan of a pot as it’s not hygienic. However it’s a very good lip balm. It would be better if it came in a tubeI suffer with really sore lips all the time and this product is great, a bit pricey but does the trick.Love it and the application "stick" is brilliantMe gusta todo, salvo el precio, me parece caro. Aún así, siempre que me lo pueda permitir, seguiré comprándolo, porque la hidratacion y la duración de la misma, no la consigue ninguno de los otros productos que he probado.
