I’ve used all the major brands, and then some of more expensive ones (Lancôme, la roche posay). So far the Lancôme one is the one I need to reapply the least with these being a close second! I like how it actually absorbs into my lips instead of just sitting on the surface. The tinted lip balm adds a hint of color, but is far from transfer proof. Overall all 3 lip balms are great for me.
