Will I Rebuy? You betcha, this will definitely be a staple.

So we just got these puppies in at work, and I have to say these are amazing. You take the minty freshness of the Mentha lip shine, and put it in a stick form. Add a bit of shimmer and a light pink tint not unlike that of the old pink lip tint, and you have the balm. The colour is very nice and neutral, with more showing up on the lips than the glossy tints. It also isn't overly shiny, however there is still the same breath freshening effect. The one negative is the packaging. While I love the lipstick-like packaging, it's very easy to nick the sides of the stick with the cap. I almost forgot to mention...this is a balm, and it does condition my lips quite nicely, better than the lip shines.

If you love all the Mentha stuff, then add one of these to your collection now, and if you are like me and can't deal with how harsh the original Mentha is, this is lighter it seems, but still nice and invigorating on the lips.
