ColoreScience Sunforgettable Total Protection Color Balm Review 

i have both sets of the balms (got them both when they were on sale) and i love them. i didn't think i would use all the colors but i love mixing them and just playing around in general. with respect to how long they last, they are not stains however, they really have hang time on the cheeks and eyes!! they last all day on my face. with respect to the lips, they last longer than most balms but they are not a stain so you have to re-apply after eating and they are not transfer resistant. i recently had a lip biopsy and i will tell you, all you have to do is go through that once and you will NEVER want to be without a lip product with a mineral SPF (who wants to ingest all those chemicals). since you have to re-apply sunscreen every 2 hours anyway, i don't mind re-applying. i carry this with me all the time because i can use the lip one for full face touch ups if necessary (when i am flying for work and want to freshen up--- although i will tell you, i have yet to have to re-apply to my face!).
