Review by Katie Miller, 19, Victoria, New QV Lip Balm User

I’ve tried a few things from this brand before which I liked so I am glad I liked this lip balm as well. Being a student with little money I don’t like to spend alot on lip balm which makes this one perfect for my lips and budget.

Review by Michelle Scott, 31, Queensland, Converted QV Lip Balm User

I used to use Blistex, now I am using the QV lip balm everyday after I wash my face and throughout the day my lips feel great and protected with the 30+. It’s very soothing without having a bad taste and not super waxy like other lip balms. Its great that it is in a tube.  I have been applying a lip liner along with it for a very natural look. Keeps my lips soft and healthy.

Review by Briony Cullen, 26, Victoria, New QV Lip Balm user

This is my new favorite lip balm. I like the fact that it doesn’t smell or taste and goes on smooth without feeling waxy. It also lasts for at least a few hours. It’s really cheap compared to other lip balms, which is surprising that I liked it so much. I go through a lot of lip balm tubes on a regular basis so this is a great option to expensive ones.

    Love it. so smooth on my lips, no taste, really soothes dry lips and I love the applicator. No mess no fuss.

    I have cracked dry lips at the moment and QV lip balm has worked really well. I like that it doesn’t have a strong flavour and it feels soft and smooth.

  • Shelley Martin says:

    I trialled the lip balm and found it to glde on smoothly. Very nice product, would recommend it to anybody

  • Sophie Davidson says:

    I love the QV lip balm – it doesn’t feel like I have an oil slick on my lips and it also gives a nice gloss finish to my lips – love it!

  • TG says:

    Thankyou for this sample, I’ve found the lip balm to be great!
    I like that it’s unscented and clear and I find it’s stayed on my lips for ages :)

  • Amanda says:

    Very convenient size, slips into your handbag easy. Applicator is a great idea and easy to use. Keeps my lips from cracking leaving them smooth without being too greasy. Thanks keep up the good work QV!!

  • Amanda Shaughnessy says:

    This is the first lip balm i have used and liked. It is super easy to apply with no mess, not oily like just about wevery other one i have tried, lasts ages agian not like others and it has the bonus of being 30+. fatntastic product that i would be happy to let my children use.

  • Simone says:

    This product was great i loved it! made my lips so soft and it wasnt a yucky taste either which is good! i put it on before i went to bed and re-applied in the morning before work!

  • Tanya Mc says:

    I normally love Qv Products and was quite keen to get started in trying the Lip Balm. I loved the fact that it contained 30+ Spf Protection and kept my lips beautiful and soft without the awful after taste that is found in some other lip products. Another Qv product that will be added to my collection. Thanks.

  • ijcoco says:

    lushious lip gloss…smooth on…but not at all greasy!!

  • Vickey Eckersley says:

    LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!! Great applicator feels really soft when putting it on. Lasts so long, don’t have to re-apply often. Not waxy at all and absorbs well into the lips. Gives my lips a nice natural looking finish that’s not waxy or too glossy. Would recommend this product to everybody (men and women)

  • Julpat19 says:

    I love the presentation of this product, I know it’ll be safe in my bag, especially during summer.
    The balm glides on so easily and feels great.
    I spent 3 days in the sun recently and it played havoc on my lips, after using this for 2 days, the cracks and burnt feeling has gone. Now I use this while out in the sun, prevention is better than cure.

  • Sal Mc says:

    I have been using this product every day in place of my usual lip balm. As I am used to using lip balm in the stick variety I was a bit apprehensive at first. But was quite surprised, as the lip balm travels in my pocket all day long and I assumed it would come out too fast and be runny. Though it wasn’t, it still came out just a little at a time. I was surprised there was no yucky aftertaste with the spf content. And it also stays on longer, so I don’t need to apply as often. Also very softening on my lips. A little goes a long way too so will last a long time. I was thinking though because of this, I would prefer a shorter/smaller tube, as it would not only be easier to travel with but also I would be sure to use it before the use by date.

  • Shelvin says:

    It is amazing, i noticed the difference almost instantly. I recommend this product to anyone and everyone.

  • Hannah says:

    Really liked the lip balm…it applies really nicely and i found that it make my once dry lips smooth again. Great Product and highly recommended.

  • olivia flanagan says:

    i really like this lipbalm. it worked really well (and i’m in canberra, so with the colder nights setting in lipbalm is becoming a must), it didn’t cause any reactions, and didn’t have any majorly obvious scents, which was great. another great product from a wonderful company

  • Ingrid Elkner says:

    It at first felt a little greasy and I had to wipe half of it off, but after a week I loved this lip balm. The key is not to use too much.
    Apply liberally and it’s like a soft gloss, without being all sticky. Apply thin and it’s a trusty lip balm.
    I love that I can put QV Face Lip Balm on and still feel my lips soft and moisturised hours later. I also love the lack of irritants; why put perfumes in skincare and cosmetics anyway?! As someone with chemical sensitivity, this balm is a blessing.
    I also sustained sunburn while using this balm, but not on my lips! The SPF factor is priceless.
    I’ll definitely be buying a replacement once this one is used up!

  • jeannegreene says:

    I work in air con my lips are often dry not anymore thanks to QV LIP BALM.

  • Catriona says:

    Love QV! Great for the kids lips too. Easy to apply, no smell or aftertaste. Wouldnt use any other lip balm now.

  • Anne says:

    The lip balm is the best I have ever used, it is so natural and stays on your lips while out in the surf. The best part was it has no smell like others with silly fruity smells.

  • AlisonS says:

    Loved the sample. It wasn’t greasy at all and stayed on for ages. No taste meant I didn’t lick it off either. SPF — excellent!!!!!! Our family + allergies = QV so bring on more new products.

  • Cathy says:

    I have recently fallen in love with this lip balm. It’s not greasy and sticky like some lip products are and it stays on for hours. Its moisturising and dosent have any unpleasant taste. Instantly transforms lips – no more cracks! Highly recommended product!.

  • Danielle says:

    Thanks for sending this QV lip balm. I love the packaging, great size and easy to use. The balm itself is fantastic, so smooth and glides on the lips. Love that it has spf in it. Love that there is no smell to it and that it absorbs really well on to the lips.

    Definitely recommend this to anyone!

  • Leisa says:

    This is a great product. My whole family can use it (males and females) as it’s not glossy, and no after taste or perfume. I don’t like lip balms, for these reasons, but this is light, non-greasy and easy to apply. Highly Recommended, thank you QV.

  • Jill says:

    I love this lip balm. Glides on really smoothly, and I love the fact that it has no taste to it. It’s not greasy, but still gives a long lasting coverage. Have now converted my daughter to it!

  • jasmin wass says:

    Ive had problems for years trying to find the right product to help me. As im always in and out of the salt water my lips get pretty nasty at times and I can say that after using qv lip balm ive noticed so many results and i would recommend it to everyone

  • Karen says:

    Great product, easy to use, fragrance free and no taste. Definitely something I will be continuing to use in the future. Another fantastic product in the QV range.

  • Jess says:

    Awesome product, only needs to be applied once in the morning and keeps my lips moisterised all day.

  • Cathy says:

    Love the smooth feel, the easy to use tube and Australia made.

  • Gabi says:

    I was pleasently surprised with this product. I had not used this kind of applicator before but it was really easy to get used to. I found there was no particular taste or aroma and impressed with the SPF 30+ protection. I am prome to cold sores when my lips burn so this will protect them. If I do happen to get one it is easy to clean the applicator between uses so there is no further infection without wasting any product. I would like to see a tiny version for childrens pockets and purses.

  • Lisa says:

    Love it, shared it with my daughter ,we both think it is fantastic. So good that it is 30+, protects your lips & makes them feel great. A wonderful product, have already seen it in shops & will be telling all to buy ;-) )

  • Elizabeth says:

    excellent product.

  • Sherry says:

    Nice smooth product to use keeps lips moist & no smell or taste t wipe off. I tried it on the kids & loved it aswell. thanks QV

  • Kylie P says:

    Thanks QV for the chance to review this lovely lipbalm. The tube is nice and compact and very easy to apply. The lip balm it self is clear so its leave a nice natural shine to the lips leaving them hydrated and protected from the sun. I work outdoors and my lips stayed nice and smooth and non dry whilst using it. And it’s very natural with no colour so it can be used my Females and Males. It looks like the tube will last a while because its a nice big tube. Great for everyone who needs moisture and protection from the sun on there precious lips. :-)

  • Tarra says:

    I found you really needed to rub it in, but once you did it was awesome. lips are sooo soft!!

  • Celine says:

    Excellent product my lips look and feel soft, more fuller and even my lipstic looks great and lasts longer. Another wonderful, gentle and safe product which works. Thanks once again QV for providing us with another fantastic and top quality product. :)

  • Annette Clarke says:

    It was used by both me and my 11 year old daughter both our lips were softer and very glistening! Would use this product again

  • Sodonney says:

    Great for cracked lips!

  • Kathryn Leslie says:

    Love QV Lip Balm. Super moisturising, leaves lips feeling luscious. Only need the smallest application, because a little goes a long way. Didn’t need to reapply after eating/drinking because my lips still felt smooth, not dry. I can use it on the kids, knowing the lip balm has SPF30+ especially for those trips to the beach and pool. Definitely would recommend to family and friends!

  • Karen says:

    I really loved the lip balm. I found it light and non-greasy and moisturised my lips well. The only downside was the applicator. I loved the shape and size of the tube but maybe I had a dud- the small hole where the lip balm came out had not been cut out properly and there were small sharp bits left which scratched my lips. I eventually cut these off myself with a stanley knife and all was well after that.

  • Antonietta Patane says:

    I have been using QV products for the past 5 years since my son was diagnosed with eczema and I must say since I started using the creams and bath oil I have also since recommended the use of the QV products on my father who suffers with diabetes and his skin has become tough and in desperate need of repair. Anyway when I was selected to test drive the lip balm I was a little apprehensive because I don’t personally use lip balms of any brand but since I walk my son to school and the weather has been both hot and windy from day to day I decided what better time to start trying the lip balm then the mornings & afternoons I’m walking, and I have to say I am hooked, what a great product, it’s not greasy or oily and keeps my lips from drying out. I will definitely continue to purchase the lip balm after the sample has run out. Thank you very much again for the opportunity to test drive a great product.
