Sun Bum SPF 30 Watermelon Lip Balm Review

Hello all,

Today’s review is on a summer essential that we all must have. I’m talking about a lip balm with SPF. I picked this one up by Sun Bum and it’s in the flavor “Watermelon.”

My Experience with Sun Bum SPF 30 Watermelon Lip Balm:

This lip balm comes in a very sleek, cute packaging. I thought this variant called “Watermelon” will have a red or pink tint to it as it says “watermelon,” but to my surprise, I found that it was a clear lip balm.

It just imparts a lot of shine to the lips. I was slightly disappointed there, but what won me over by several times was the fragrance of this balm. It smells heavenly and of yummy, juicy watermelons. The fragrance is strong and I love how fresh and tropical the fragrance is. It just makes me super happy. The fragrance lingers for quite some time. The lip balm also tastes sweet, like watermelon. Maybe it’s the fragrance that makes me think that it tastes like watermelons 😛 I don’t know, but I absolutely love this little baby.

The texture of the lip balm is very thin and watery. It is very slick but not sticky and goopy. Because of its runny texture, it moves a lot around the lips and can’t be worn on top of lipsticks or liquid lipsticks. It will instantly make a matte lipstick look sheer and glossy.

I love the fact that it has such a high SPF in it. Till now, I have used only lip balms with SPF up to 8. I think this is a good lip balm considering the price factor too.

The staying power isn’t much to write anything about, but it hydrates my lips well, so I don’t really require much on the lips for 3-4 hours. It moistures my lips really well.
