Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment and Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Treatment

I

I am just absolutely in love with these lip treatments. These were from the Sephora birthday gift I got last year and I didn't open it until now! o_o

These two are the most popular selling lip treatments from Fresh. It includes the Sugar Lip Treatment with SPF 15, and a tinted rose lip treatment that also has SPF 15 in it. First off, the packaging is so pretty. To open these lippies, you have to twist the screw top which is so functional and smart so lids won't go flying off in your handbag. Brilliant.


The texture of these treatments are both identical. They glide on very smoothly and has a very hydrating formula. It's formulated with lots of natural oils (blackcurrent being one of them), fatty acids and real sugar. The oils really provide a lot of nourishment and my lips feel incredible with it on. 
They claim to be free of petroleum, mineral oil and lanolin which are the main ingredients in most commercial lip balms. Because it's formulated without those ingredients, both treatments are actually very soft. If you're in warm weather, these can melt very easily. 

Scent-wise, it has a really bright lemon-y scent that isn't overwhelming. It's quite refreshing and reminds me of lemon bars. 


Here are the swatches. The sugar lip treatment is really glossy and pretty. The tinted rose one has a really pretty, very subtle color. So pretty!

Between the two, if I were to choose one, I would choose the tinted one. Essentially they feel identical on my lips and one isn't more hydrating than the other so I'd definitely go with color ;)

The only con I have with these is the melt factor. Because it's so natural, you also have to be aware that these can melt in warm weather. I ran them across my lips and I can feel it melting from the tube! 

These lip treatments are on the pricier side and run about $22.50 each for the full size. It's definitely a splurge but they are just irresistible!


Do you like these lip treatments? :)

Hey Jen, I actually really, REALLY like these! They probably have to be my favorite chap sticks. I don't often need a lip balm during day time (I apply a thick layer before going to bed), but when I do, these are my favorites!

I used started using mine since getting them as last year's Sephora Bday gift. I really like them but don't think I would pay that much for them though.

If I were to spend my money on one of these it'd definitely be on a tinted one! I really like the shade! Such a nice rose!

They are a bit on the pricey side. But they are so pretty!

Definitely much nicer to use them at night when our skin can really benefit from it!
