Texture & Fragrance
It smells exactly like lychee. The smell is so delicious that I want to eat it. Right away. It also has shimmer in it.
Application
Apply to the lips with your fingertip, as often as required.
My Impression
Love the delicious lychee flavour. I also prefer stick form since its less messy to use. Well, overall its a nice lip balm with a very light tint of somewhere between beige and pink and it has some shimmer in it. Although it's not as moisturizing as other lips balms I used from the The Body Shop, I still like it. At least its still moisturizing, and it has pretty shimmer.
