  • “This has been the bane of my existence. It's just unbelievable how much product is in this and how long it has taken me to use it up”12:06–12:13

2.5Lip Butter Balm Treatment for Hydration + Nourishing Shine
Brand note

Summer Fridays is a lip brand through and through, with a lip stain that actually lasts and a balm that's more about shine and feel than deep hydration. The Flushed Lip Stain is the standout — it stays put through the day, gives a natural tint, and doesn't bleed or look patchy, though the applicator can be inconsistent. The lip butter balm is lightweight and glossy, but some find it doesn't keep dry lips moisturized for long.
