  • “I have so many empties of this one. I actually think it is our most emptied lip balm at this point”
  • “Still one of the best lip balms that I have ever tried”21:26–21:30
  • “It does have a very nice glossy finish to it, very very moisturizing and nourishing”21:32–21:39
  • “Sometimes it's almost too melty. If I leave it in a pocket for too long or somewhere where sun hits or gets warmed up it gets mushed up or like literally just melts”21:39–21:45
  • “If it was just for the formula and if they didn't release limited editions I don't think I would continue to buy it, so holy grail not so much anymore”22:22–22:34

Brand note

Rohto Mentholatum is the Japanese drugstore powerhouse behind some of the most functional, no-nonsense skincare out there — think stable vitamin C serums, hydrating sunscreens, and nourishing lip balms that actually work without a luxury price tag. The Melano CC Vitamin C Essence is the standout: a stable, affordable serum that targets newer dark spots and is suitable for most skin types, though the oily finish can be a trade-off for some.
