Disclaimer: The products featured were provided for review.As mentioned in my recent review of the
Dior Addict Lip Glow Butter, tinted lip balms are having a major moment, with nearly every beauty brand launching their own version to stake a claim in the trend. Released in Fall 2024, the
Naturium Phyto-Glow Lip Balm (C$14.99 for 10 ml) stands out as one of the more affordable, mid-range options available. With its nourishing formula and high-gloss finish, the Phyto-Glow Lip Balm is available in Canada at Shoppers Drug Mart. To read my full review and see swatches of a couple of shades, click...

Packaging:The Naturium Phyto-Glow Lip Balm comes in a simple squeeze tube. However, unlike typical liquid lip balm packaging, this one features a unique paddle-shaped applicator that helps spread the product more evenly. It is worth noting that the consistency of the Phyto Glow Lip Balm is quite thick, so it takes some effort to squeeze out.

Formulation:Formulated with shea butter, cupuaçu butter, and plant-derived squalane, the Naturium Phyto Glow Lip Balm is a deeply nourishing liquid lip balm with a thick and viscous consistency. It has a pleasant vanilla scent and comes in a wide range of shades that offer a sheer wash of color. “
Jam” is a muted mauve berry, while “
Lychee” is a soft pinkish red. Due to its thick consistency, the balm takes a bit of effort to spread, but it melts nicely once warmed up by the lips. The finish has a beautiful shine, and it's mostly non-sticky, with just a slight tackiness that helps the product last a bit longer. Overall, the Naturium Phyto Glow Lip Balm is a solid everyday option that delivers on its promise to keep lips hydrated and conditioned. It is not a game changer, but it absolutely lives up to its claims.
