NIVEA Blackberry Lip Care, Tinted Lip Balm with Shea Butter, 0.17 OZ

This is my go to balm! I bought all of the colors and have stuck with the blackberry. I love the smell, and it's just the right amount of tint for me. I use this instead of lipstick and it feels natural ad pretty.

I've tried the big fancy brand and was not impressed (especially for the price) - this is the best dupe I've found and I LOVE the color payout for a lip balm product. Doesn't dry out my lips, the color is stunning (especially for fall), bargain price - what more do you want? Just buy it already.

I have ordered this over and over again. In fact, I may already have a review about this product. I really like the way it makes my lips feel and I love the subtle color. I would totally recommend this to anybody who wants a little slight hint of color to their lips and moisturizer that's not toxic.

AND THE PRICE!! I purchased it on a whim sometime last year during a much-taken-for-granted-at-the-time lunch jaunt to the Duane Reade on John Street in beautiful NYC. Then, upon returning to the office, I tossed it into a literal bowl on my desk of other lip products ranging from drugstore to embarrassingly expensive. The bowl held upwards of 20 reddish berryish tints, and that's a conservative estimate. I had a problem. And when the WFH stuff started in March, my hoard of desk stuff was left to sit and collect dust. Then, when I started a new job a few months into quarantine, the stuff was shipped back to my apartment in two large cardboard boxes. And I let them sit unopened for a week, paralyzed by the fear of what would meet me when I opened them. Paralyzed in general. I’m never not feeling paralysis these days. But one afternoon, some inner voice assured me it was time, so I ripped them open with my bare hands and got to work. I threw away the stale mint tea, broken granola bars, TimeOut and Boro magazines from three summers ago, bent stickers I never committed to putting on my stuff. Broken mugs. Dead pens. And most of the lip products, though it pained me greatly. They had melted and taken on a weird crayon-y smell, and as so many folks have realized during this time, they were not necessary to my routine or my happiness. I do not wear makeup anymore. Period. Not even brow gel. I am not sure if I even miss it. But I did miss the Nivea lip balm enough to save her, along with one other red Kosas lip oil (still as good as the day I bought it on BOGO with my dear old work wife. Hi Kemy.) And since the Great Unpacking, I’ve worn the Nivea lip balm every single day, reapplying before meetings with people I’ve yet to meet in real life. It fades evenly and gets brighter and stainier with every application. It’s the first and only tinted lip that I can put on WITHOUT so much as touching up with a finger. We all know that weird stained ring finger tip, we all dislike it just like we dislike the Flamin’ Hot Cheeto fingers. This balm is THAT easy and foolproof. And there’s actual color payoff, unlike so many berryish tints I’ve been burned by before. My lips are more pigmented, so what tends to be a MLBB shade on some tends to be invisible on me. This berry is on the bolder side of sheer, and shows up enough that it brings some brightness and life to my face on Zoom! A face which is tan from being safely outside on weekends but still weirdly grayish from anxiety-induced insomnia! Nothing short of a miracle. If this balm was wrapped in luxe Dior packaging, I would pay 30 dollars for it. I would also pay 30 dollars to leisurely stroll through Duane Reade in FiDi just one more time, to touch bottles of lotion and swatch (!! Ew!!) product on my hand, but also I would pay 300000 dollars to never have to go back to FiDi again. Anyway, I'm so glad I can get this tinted balm in mass quantities on this godforsaken website—I implore you to try it, too.

LOVE this! I don't like to wear lipstick but I use a lot of chapsticks. But I also like a little color on my lips. after reading reviews in NYT on this Blackberry color, I decided to try. I love that I can slather this on like I do chapstick, and don't have to be so precise. But there is just enough natural color to make my face look not so washed out. The Black Raspberry seems perfect for many skin tones. and although it looks very dark in the tube, because it is sheer, it adds just the right hint of color. The only downside is that the moisture does not last as long as other chapsticks and balms and I do have to re-apply frequently.

Good color

I bought this because I kept seeing it recommended as a drugstore dupe for Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey, and while I can see the comparison color-wise, I don’t personally think it’s a true one-to-one dupe. The biggest difference to me is that Black Honey has a very forgiving sheerness to it. Somehow it always looks effortless no matter how casually you apply it. This Nivea balm, on the other hand, is noticeably more pigmented. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but it means I have to be more careful applying it because if it goes even slightly outside my lip line, it starts leaning a little “lipstick clown” instead of effortless tinted balm. Formula-wise, it’s definitely hydrating and I do think it’s better than a lot of other drugstore tinted balms I’ve tried. But it still has that common tinted balm issue where pigment can cling to dry patches or lip texture if your lips aren’t super smooth beforehand. Overall, I do like it for what it is, and I think it’s a solid affordable tinted balm option. I just wouldn’t personally put it neck-and-neck with Black Honey. To me, it feels more like its own product rather than a true dupe.

This item was viral a few years ago, and I’m still hooked! My absolute favorite lip product! It hydrates my lips and provides just the right amount of tint that is the perfect color. I would say the Glossier black cherry bombdotcom is similar in terms of coverage and color, but I do prefer this (better applicator, better price, etc). I wear it just about every day!

This Nivea blackberry chapstick is really nice. Leaves a nice shade on your lips. Feels smooth and very soothing. However, $10 for 1 chapstick is extremely overpriced. I purchased it when it went on sale for $6. I will never pay $10 for 1.

Garbage product

This gives such a nice sheer ruby sheen to my lips and is a great moisturizer.

La calidad insuperable , saber delicioso

The Cherry is the best!!
