Tom's in the comments!! Hello! Two of my fave creators. Tom, I build playlists of your videos, Hannah's videos and Kackie's videos and that's my me-time treat in the evenings after long days.

[@anustern1960]

The moment of quiet self-reflection and chaos was my favorite one. Please leave in more of the messy stuff.

[@coachmindy]

I enjoyed the intronabout glossy balms vs. tinted lip balms... so true. all the observations are spot on about glossy balms. I keep going back to Hannah's requirement that as a pale skin person we should be able to swipe the balm on without a mirror and keep reapplying the day without worrying about too much pigment. Most tinted glossy balms i can only swipe once because of pigment which isnt satisfying lol. i hate only being able to lightly swipe on one lip and thats almost too much pigment. I relate to Hannah's requirement to be able to keep applying through the day.

[@lelalu101]

Yes!! I've bought the lightest color of a tinted balm more than once only to have it be a deep nude or peach on my muted light olive skin

[@caycesavage7580]

I revel in the context, Hannah! At times I ponder whether an increasing lack of appetite for context contributes to poor public discourse generally, so I am always thankful for the intentionality no matter the subject.

Nivea Cherry, I have a balm everywhere, my purse, bathroom, car, even my walking pouch. Cherry brings out your natural lip hue but still adds beautiful color to your face. It’s less harsh than the blackberry and lasts for a long time. If you use it a few times a day, your lip coverage is always there. Note: I am not a red person, at all, but Cherry is more of a plummy pink blue red on me…hard to describe except it brings out my own lip tone brilliantly. It is my favorite lip product and has been forever.

[@samruddhisaoji7195]

Yes! I thought of Nivea cherry or Nivea watermelon when she laid out her recquirements

[@erinodonnell386]

The timing of this is super funny. Right before Hannah began her quest she reviewed and was really enjoying the Nars Afterglow Tinted Lip Balm in the shade Fast Lane. She was really enjoying it and it looked like it would fill a need for me so I picked it up. I’ve enjoyed it ever since but not enough to repurchase (not quite enough body, love the color, the tint level, and that it’s unscented). And I’m almost done with it now, I’m at the very bottom of the tube and will be looking to purchase another tinted lip balm very very shortly. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the whole series and how have the finale. Perfect timing.

[@d.-beck7205]

Hannah, you could have kept the while 15 (50?) minute long philosophical intro plus your search for the earring, and I would not be the only one enjoying all of it. ❤❤❤

[@Snoozler]

It's so interesting how colors show up differently on people! For me, the Nivea blackberry is my holy grail lip balm, and doesn't look nearly as dramatic as it does on you.For me it's a very subtle MLBB color.

I love their balms. Every color is perfection! I like one of their lipstick formulas, too!

[@belorama8]

My all-time favorite lip balm is so perfect and you can only buy it during certain times of the year because it's not from a beauty brand. Trader Joe's lip moisturizer is one of the best things I have ever used. Seriously top 10 products I've ever used for anything. It is so nourishing and moisturizing, glossy and priming. I don't go through it very fast at all because it is so good at it's job. I could go on forever. It's amazing. It's not tinted so I don't think that would qualify for what Hannah was looking for, but it's so nice!

[@gracenurse3365]

I use a light moisturizer from Trader Joe’s that really agrees with me: “Nourish / Oil Free/ Antioxidant Facial Moisturizer.” I have sensitive skin, and this one feels nice and simple.

[@sarahkelly4095]

One more comment because you’ve unlocked my fiery passion for excellent lip products ! If you ever start to look for lip SPF options, I’ve been on the search and can report back. I often struggle with chemical options irritating my lips and physical options looking awful. My current winners are the Tatcha one for tinted, it is mostly zinc with a little chemical filter and makes me lips feel actually healed when I wear it! Then for clear I had to go to K beauty for non-irritating chemical options-the mentholatum melts cream lip is so amazing, I can’t taste smell or feel the spf ingredients at ALL! There are a couple of different versions but I got the one that had more +++ for uva protection.

[@eliseb9801]

I need a tinted, fully mineral SPF that is nourishing and does not look horrible as well! It seems like this does not exist.

[@sarahkelly4095]

@@eliseb9801 ilia used to make one, but I think it’s been discontinued for a long time! The Nudestix lip primer spf ones look good imo but aren’t very nourishing.

[@becm963]

I sometimes struggle with long introductions. This one was close to pushing me over my arbitrary limit. It held me just right to the edge because it did have useful information relating to this particular video. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on these products. It is helpful as a consumer when there are so many different products to choose from in the marketplace.

[@terenko]

I know the search is over but may I PLEASE suggest the Japanese lip balm Rohto Mentholatum Melty Cream Lip? Fair warning: it has no tint, it’s clear. But it’s really shiny and so nourishing, and there’s a plumping, lip-filling quality to them (with almost a milky white cream consistency?) that almost mimics glosses and evens out the natural hue of my lips beautifully. I wear it all the time, alone or with other lip products. It went semi viral recently after a Japanese LIP MODEL mentioned it as her holy grail lip care item (can it get any more convincing than a lip model’s HG? Sheesh!). Okay I just needed to get that off my chest-loved the video as always, Hannah!

[@jilliansmith9303]

Phytosurgence Soft Swells is my ultimate holy grail. I have really pale lips (almost ghastly - looking), but lipstick is not practical with my day to day. Before this, I used to just not put anything on because I knew I would be out all day not able to look in a mirror in case it smudged. For me, it's the perfect amount of life back into my face, but it just looks like I have naturally pigmented, moisturized lips rather than having a product on them. Plus, it's not that same shade of neon staining pink.

[@laurafaehnrich4261]

I have the same problem, my lips are white in the middle. I wear essence Lipgloss number 09 (I think it is called shadow rose?) everywhere. I have like ten tubes of it for every back and my car. Feels nourishing, gives the perfect color for my face and extremely inexpensive. If applied thinly it looks like a balm not makeup because the color is so natural

[@shreyakochar1456]

Regarding glossy balms, I’m actually curious if you would like MAC’s squirt plumping gloss stick in the shade jet. It feels similar to the Hourglass stick with the plumping minty feel, but to me that sheer black shade is everything! It makes everything look good - on its own it’s a slightly grungier version of your natural lips, and with other colors it’s adds such a nice desaturation and depth to the color. Seems like something you may love for makeup

[@marieisivy]

Interesting! I find the waxy balms to be more drying on my perpetually chapped lips. It's like if my lips aren't lathered on something nourishing and emollient, I'm sure to find my lips dried up by the end of the day. My holy grail all day lip treatment is Cerave Healing Ointment mixed up in a lip gloss tube with a little bit of melted lipstick. This DIY was honestly the only lip product I have that gives me the right amount of sheer tint and nourishment I need on a no makeup day. Sheer glossy balms are a close second to that. Anything more pigmented I just use on the center of my lip for that bitten lip look.

[@lelalu101]

I have a lip mask jar that is half aquafor ointment half lip mask. A little of both is so good when my lips are CRUNchy

[@MillieMaa]

Same re: waxy balms for me - I was expecting to not like it but have found that the summer fridays balms really work for me.

[@ligli500]

I so relate to you! I'd love to try the Burt's Bees balm, but honestly waxy balms just... accumulate in the cracks of my lips (ugh). They've never felt nourishing or quenching. So even finding a non-tinted balm has been a JOUR👏NEY👏 for me. I thought Working Hands was the solution for a couple years... but I swear they changed the formula or it just stopped working. Enter stage left: Palmer's Cocoa Butter Swivel Stick! From first swipe it immediately became my holy grail. It never feels waxy, goes on smooth no matter how dry and chapped my lips get in freezing winter winds, feels SUPER nourishing for hours and hours, kinda tastes veeeery lightly like chocolate cause... it's cocoa butter. LOL I didn't notice it for the first weeks, until my husband asked me "Have you been eating chocolate?" That's when I put two and two together. But I hate artificial scents and tastes with a passion and the Palmer's swivel stick does NOT have that. Pro tip: It also works great to hydrate cuticles, elbows, or dry skin when you're out and about.

[@chelseashift]

@@ligli500 I say try the burt's bees anyways! It melts into a bit of an oil on the lips.

[@shelbymaddock]

I think your shade in the romand balm would be either nu beige or buffy coral! Both sheer cool toned browns, nu beige is more caramel and buffy coral is more rosy.

[@irenecnx]

I honestly just don't think even nu beige would be compatible for her application and minimal pigment needs. I think I was the comment that informed her that the romand lip balms vary in pigmentation, which I DO think is true. In fact, I kinda know it is, but ultimately, if you want to do several swipes, the pigment will build up. I am also fair and nubeige is a staple for me, but I do apply it lightly like a lipstick because I don't personally feel like I need to apply it with a heavier hand, but people have different needs and tastes.

[@Sarah.Jane.]

I think the ole henrickson peptide lip treatment actually checks all the boxes. It’s the perfect hybrid of tint, glossy shine, and nourishing. I wear it with makeup, without makeup and even overnight as a treatment when my lips are at their worst. It just comes in a tube instead of a bullet.

[@wiebken.9420]

The smell though! From what I gathered online this doesn‘t seem to be an issue for everybody (I envy everybody who can stand the smell). But for me both the Creme Brûlée and the hot cocoa one just have this intense chemical vomitty smell. It’s horrendous and once I smelled it, it’s literally burnt into my brain. I can’t. :D Such a disappointment, cause the colours, the feeling and the look are a-maz-ing actually.

[@Sarah.Jane.]

@@wiebken.9420 I have the strawberry, orange, and grapefruit ones and they all smell good to me. Maybe it’s the chocolatey/vanillaness? Sometimes those kinds of scents smell chemically to me too.

[@wiebken.9420]

@@Sarah.Jane. genuinely good for you. :) I’ll definitely try the strawberry shade next. Because the balm is a dream. Weirdly I never had any problems with vanillay scents. Sure, not my fave and sometimes a little bit artificial. But this is another level. (To me) it smells genuinely rancid. But I guess I should be happy. There are too many nice products to realistically try all of them anyway. :)

[@deniseyuen552]

I feel like the Bobbi Brown Extra Lip Tint in bare pink or bare nude would make it into your top tier! Your description of the phytosurgence and rabanne is how I feel about the Bobbi Brown.

[@MillieMaa]

woohoo!!! the best thing for a break in my workday! Your details and care in this epic report are so helpful. Also noting that everyone's lips are different - I was excited about the Burt's Bees Dahlia and it just does not work for me - something about the formula is really drying/not nourishing for my lips, the color is just ok, etc. Summer Friday's brown sugar (which I hated at first) I now really love, find very nourishing, and is my go to.

[@debtownes619]

You should try Nivea in Strawberry. It's the palest shade & would be great on fair skin. I agree that blackberry is too pigmented & also the scent & flavor are too strong. Cherry is my fave, but Im a medium olive skintone.

[@lucillebluth9377]

Cherry is the correct answer.... 😊

[@pretty_saucy]

Love the peach, but I use it to tone down the stronger color of my lips. Nivea lip balms are my everything because they don't make my lips react and almost everything else does.

[@nicolelynch1886]

Some amazing tube products from skincare brands that I thought I would share for people who enjoy the tube format: Eadem Le Chouchou lip softening balm (comes in clear and some beautiful shades) and Experiment Software smoothing lip treatment (clear). They are true skincare products in that they are nourishing and have very very gentle exfoliating properties to aid with dry patches. Thank you Hannah for such an amazing round up video :)

[@carriem3466]

I like to melt together Nivea blackberry with Burt's Bees red dahlia. The combination is perfect. Rich and thick with sheer color. I use a tiny container from the dollar store in a pan of water over the stove and then pour melted lipbalms back into the tubes. Sometimes I add a few wax pellets to thicken it a bit more for the colder seasons.

[@tcwaxwing]

Watching you put lip balm on makes me feel like the stingiest miser with my 'one swipe top one swipe bottom and done' approach lol. And at last, the final results! We live for the excruciatingly detailed deconstruction and critique. I'm already a fan of Burt's Bees chapsticks, so it follows that now I'm on the hunt for the tinted balm.

[@Marsolan]

[@jmholsin]

I can totally also vouch for the texture of that Nivea balm! Nice and thick. They also make a colorless/neutral version in a divine vanilla buttercream flavor if you're into that.

[@meepmoopmeep1]

HANNAH! I’m telling you, you need the shade Buffy Coral in the Romand balm. It will be too pigmented still, but I think it will be your best color out of the line. It is not coral, despite the name. On me it pulls quite gray/pink, but it will probably be a true neutral on you

[@ah57588]

Yess, buffy coral is a misnomer. As a fellow "everything turns peach/coral on me" person, it's not coral. I want to know who named the damn shade, cause it caused me to skip it first time around when it was exactly what I was looking for in glossy balms

[@gwendolinehall1386]

This is the perfect video for what I was looking for, thank you! For a sun protection lip balm (I also HATE the taste and feeling of sunblock) I recommend Ultrasun. It’s high protection, good sticking power, and has a really nice slick texture, for those of us who get dry lips easily especially in the heat, it keeps your lips moisturised. The only downside is it has a bit of a glycerin-ey taste.

[@cornellfoodie]

If we are opening this up to squeezey balms, may I strongly suggest the Ole Henriksen? It is so nourishing and the cocoa Creme one might be perfect for you. Stays on forever, too! I’m sad this series is over. I selfishly always enjoy when you are on one of your quests!!!

Wow - what an incredibly well researched video. I also have similar requirements for a lip tint balm and; although it may seem such a hypercritical analysis; I am so glad there is a place we can go to to make an informed decision before ending up with 25 lip balms. Keep waging war on waste.

Loved this series. i REALLY like the kosas sport lip balm formula. i so wish the pigment wasnt so high. I'm considering buying the clear, but the price point for essentially a clear chapstick is pretty steep. im curious if any KZbinrs are obsessed with it. its not memorable but every time i put some on (to try to use up the overly tinted one i have now) i pause, because its so good.

[@danam.5127]

I loved hearing the intro because I'm searching for the opposite of you- I want products with LOTS of pigment that are very shiny and very "plush" on the lips. So perhaps that last bit is similar to yours, but still! Now I have more products to try once I get through more of the ones I have now. That Nivea blackberry balm is at the top of the list! My go-to product is the NYX fat drip lip oil (I think that's what they're called?). I love layering them on top of either the ELF glossy lip stains or the NYX butter glosses for even more pigment. I also like the NYX click lip balm in the light brown shade, but most of the other shades don't call to me as much as that one.

[@lisamoss3146]

Love this video! I too have been on a lip product search. I'm in my mid 40s and have been transitioning from the heavy formula, heavily pigmented lipsticks that I wore throughout my 20's and 30's to a more natural, no fuss look. I bought several of the Burt's Bees tinted balms but I actually hated them. To me, they felt thin and greasy on the lips and had a weird lotion taste and smell. I gave all of them to my daughter. I tried the Burt's Bees lip shines and they're ok but they're a sticky gloss product and I have 2 left of the original 6 I bought and I'm finally almost done with them. Won't buy those again! So, for me, I actually like the Blistex balms (they come in a 2 pack, one is clear the other is pink, I think they're called Silk Effects). Another good one for me is the new(er) CoverGirl tinted balms. They feel so so good and silky and you can build up the pigment if you want. I think for me, once I phase out all of my old products, I will repurchase only the CoverGirl and Blistex balms. Those products really fit what I'm looking for as far as comfort and how I look whether I'm at home or in the office.

[@rach3975]

A few years ago I tried the Burt's Bees Red Dahlia and loved it. I wanted exactly what you wanted, but I happened to try that one first. I've tried alternatives from time to time, but I always end up disappointed and buying more of the Burt's Bees Red Dahlia. Good to know that it's actually just that good and I should stop wasting money trying other brands!

[@CharlieBCreations]

I wanted to comment this on the earlier drugstore lipbalm video (don't ask me why I didn't, genuinely don't know!!) But the nivea lip balm does also come in a lighter shade, I have it in strawberry and it's barely pigmented, though still quite saturated. I am also quite pale and wear it often (it has a nostalgic quality for me ❤)

[@user-qp6lj6gu7s]

Video suggestion (honestly more like a plea): swatch and compare the colours available for the winner in each category! Maybe all in one video, or one for each category including a makeup look with your favourite, or perhaps your least favourite as a way to challenge yourself 👀

Fitglow Beauty just launched a new squeeze tube lip product, I think you would love it! It’s supposed to be a sheer glossy colour, but super nourishing and skincare focused. Their products look and feel luxurious and they’re very quality ingredients. Give them a try! ❤(it has a gold metal applicator… looks so satisfying!)

[@rachaelbrecher7207]

I can’t remember if I commented before but if not I wanted to comment on the Ro&mnd glasting balm. I have it in the shade Buffy Coral, which is total misnomer, it is kind of buff but not even remotely coral, and I think that you would really like that one-it has less pigment and is very neutral, maybe even cool toned actually (but it is still a glossy balm, so not for this brief)

[@rebeccaforbes5145]

Understanding that this isn’t the focus of the video… but I cannot get over the colour of that mascara. It is perfection

[@chlomo2618]

I believe the Rom&nd Glasting Melting Balm in Buffy Coral is a more subtle level of pigmentation, and has a greyer tone than Coco Nude, so it looks a lot more natural on my Rose Inc LX010 complexion. I love these glossy balms, personally, because they last much longer on the lips for me than other lip balms, and leave behind a nourished feeling even when no longer discernable.

[@dogwalker97]

A number of people commented the same on a previous video. Buffy coral is very sheer. It’s one of my favorites

[@rachelmaddowswife8713]

I've been wearing Burt's Bee's red dahlia or zinnia every day since I discovered them. For people wanting a natural, warm tint, I highly recommend zinnia. The other colors from this line are a little too bright on me, they give you that "just ate a popsicle" look, which isn't bad, just not what I'm going for at work.

I absolutely love Burt's bees clear balm. Keeps my lips in perfect condition, not a single peel since I've used it consistenltly. I bought it in London last year and use it to layer a touch of lipstick on top and create my own "sheer lipbalms". It is one of those things I literally reach for every day without realising. That alongside with brushing my eyebrows makes me feel pretty with very little effort😂☺️

This roundup is amazing, Hannah! As a fellow fair-neutral-olive skinned gal, I have one more drugstore/Amazon option I think you might love: Honest Beauty’s tinted lip balm in the shade Plum Drop (though all the shades are lovely). It’s a rather stiff formula, a sort of jelly sheer that’s buildable, and it’s very smoothing without that awful thick/gloppy feel. The plum shade is excellent on my (our?) skin tone - sort of like Clinique’s Black Honey but a bit cooler, a bit less brown. It makes my teeth look super white! I never hear anyone talk about this product and it’s my number one favorite - and I’ve tried a lot. Would love to know what you think of it!

Taking notes!!! I prefer same consistency but slightly more pigment and not too grippy. I like Chantecaille.

I know I'm late to the recommendations but I've been using Vaseline lip therapy rosy lips (in a pink tube) and I love it. A sheer pink, basically clear, melty but the stick holds up. And makes my lips look more plump. And it has a fruity rose scent that goes away pretty quickly as you apply. Also no weird taste. Sorry for the long comment, 😅

[@emilyjensenius4289]

I love how that product applies, but a warning for sensitive skin folks. This one makes my lips sore and flaky by the end of the day. So annoying bc it's a nice product otherwise!

[@chelseashift]

@@emilyjensenius4289 omg so it's not just me! I was wondering why my lips felt "raw" after using it for a while. I have sensitive skin too. I wonder what's in it to do that :(

[@kimberluna8306]

@@chelseashift I don't know your circumstances of course, but I've heard you're not supposed to wear Vaseline in the sun (even on your lips). I don't know if that's a known thing, maybe I've just been living under a rock? But I did not know that before, so I thought I'd share.

[@kaylap2637]

I know the Kosas one you tried was too pigmented but I absolutely love that formula in the shade Cinnamon Spritz which is a true brown and blotted down it is *chefs kiss* perfection! You might like it

Hello there! I don't know if I'm the only one who thought about this, but with the "newer" title screen 0:50 with the four pictures I thought it would make sense to have coloured the picture of the outfit for fashion videos, the makeup for beauty videos, etc. and leave the others in b&w. So with the title screen you would know the general topic. Maybe it is messy for you to have different edits but I thought it was a cool concept to at least share! I hope it made sense😅

[@HannahLouisePoston]

I love this idea! Will implement!

[@kaylaballinger495]

Oh my goodness! That, "I'm almost done, I'm almost done talking." In the end of the "something I learned" section sounded SO motherly! ❤😅

[@melissa.deklerk]

Exactly what I felt! And I loved it ❤ I adored that. This little aside to the audience felt like I was sitting next to her in an in-person conversation and she knew she was going on a bit (I am like this, so I can relate, and I *loved* it), but that she knew what she wanted to say and where her contextual info was going to get to the point. I am like this. I need the person I'm talking to to understand the background context. Otherwise how can I convey my point properly?

[@teresawilliams1201]

Love the absolute thoroughness of your testing. Cannot wait for the decluttering clothing vids as well!

[@sofia899]

YES! The rabanne one is soo well talked about by beauty ppl I trust. I bought the burts bees thanks to u and i think u should try the Espressoh lip balm in “babà” has a really similar colour to the rabanne one and it smells like cappuccino. It’s around 16€ and made by an Italian brand not sure u could find it easily in the states

[@annamacm4063]

I have all the lip balm needs and wishes you have listed! So hate to throw a spanner in the works after the winners have been announced… but Lanolips 101 ointment in rose gold is my great love. I’ve been using the untinted 101 as my clear balm for years now.. it’s so good that if I apply it before bed it’s still on my lips in the morning. The rose gold is pretty tinted but it can be applied lightly for a very natural look. .. so in a way it’s the best of both worlds… if I’m travelling light it doubles as a balm or as a lipstick depending on how much I apply. Downside… it’s in a tube. But I’m still sold!

[@taggarca]

I picked up the Burt’s bees after seeing the drugstore comparison and I LOVE IT. thank you for helping me find a new favorite!

[@sarahdelagarza1362]

I love the way you say "balm" so I'm READY for this video 😅

[@kerrysulli]

I almost hate to recommend another one at this late stage, but I think the Victoria Beckham Posh Balm lands right between the glossy balm/lip balm categories-- very glossy, very lightly tinted, very nourishing with a thicker, waxier texture that is easy to apply and stays on the lips. Expensive, but it comes in a luxe metal component. No scent or flavor! It's so so good!

[@MaryMercer-uk1ym]

Totally agree. Plus the Hermes rosy lip enhancer in rose tan.

[@womanofacertainage5892]

Been using that Burt's Bees in Red Dahlia for -- maybe 20 years or so? It's so wonderful! It's one of a very very very few products that I've repurchased many times over the years. Glad you found it!

[@rachelpalekar5966]

Fitglow night lip serum, eadem lip softening balm and Sarah Creal solid serum lip balm! Not all bullets, and all colorless..but amazing, full body lip nourishers.

[@ThatLionessGirl]

The Nivea one is rediculously beautiful for darker skin tones, it works perfectly the color and texture!

[@marlbboro8091]

Here for it! With my yummy morning cup of tea. Perfect pair

[@Teajay21]

Ooh this feels like it will be a very satisfying video, I like tinted lip balms for daily wear, I totally agree about the "glossy balm" they usually feel a little too sticky & similar to a lip gloss.

[@WolffBlurr]

Home sick from food poisoning and this definitely brightened my day ❤ I’m currently working through a couple of clear lip balms from oKeefes and Paula’s Choice but once I’m done with those I’m totally eyeing those phytosurgence balms 👀

[@anustern1960]

I hope you feel better soon❤
