At just $4.97 each, I seriously couldn't resist grabbing a few to try, especially with all the buzz around them.
First off, let's talk about the *flavors*. The original post mentioned them, but experiencing them is a whole different ballgame. I picked up the Strawberry Milkshake and Cocoa Sugar first, and wow! The Strawberry Milkshake has this delightful, sweet scent that instantly transports you back to childhood. On the lips, it gives a gorgeous, subtle pink sheen – exactly like the glossy, light pink swirl I saw in the images. It's not an overpowering tint, but just enough to make your lips look naturally healthier and a bit plumper. It feels incredibly hydrating, almost like a drink for your lips!
Then there's the Cocoa Sugar. If you're a chocolate lover, you NEED this. It smells rich and comforting, not too sweet, but just right. When I applied it, it gave my lips a warm, very sheer brownish tint, reminiscent of a delicate, glossy dark brown swirl. It's perfect if you want just a hint of color that’s more sophisticated than a clear balm. It melts onto the lips, leaving them feeling incredibly soft and smooth, not sticky at all. The OCR descriptions of the glossy textures and colors really come to life when you try these out!
I also managed to snag the Vanilla Bean and Watermelon ones on a separate trip! The Vanilla Bean is pure comfort in a tube – a classic, sweet vanilla scent that's universally loved. It leaves a beautiful, glossy, light beige finish, making your lips look super healthy and moisturized without any noticeable tint. It's my go-to for everyday hydration. The Watermelon is surprisingly refreshing, with a sweet, juicy aroma. On the lips, it provides a very subtle, vibrant red sheen – nothing too bold, just a hint of summery color that brightens your whole face.
These aren't just pretty scents and colors, though. The texture is what truly sets them apart. They really are "soft, buttery, juicy, and dangerously addictive" as the original post claims! They glide on effortlessly, melting into your lips without any waxy or heavy feeling. They feel incredibly lightweight but provide serious hydration. I’ve noticed my lips feel much softer and smoother even hours after application. Unlike some balms that just sit on top, these truly nourish.
Many of you might be wondering about the "tinted" aspect. Yes, some of them definitely offer a light, sheer tint! As I mentioned, Strawberry Milkshake gives a delicate pink, Cocoa Sugar a warm brown, and Watermelon a soft red. Vanilla Bean is more of a clear gloss. These aren't opaque lipsticks, but rather enhance your natural lip color with a healthy glow and a touch of color that's perfect for a "no-makeup makeup" look or for layering over other lip products. If you're looking for subtle "swatches" in terms of color payoff, think sheer washes of delightful color that make your lips look juicy and alive.
Considering the amazing price point of $4.97, these Vitamasques Lip Butter Balms are an absolute steal. They compete with much more expensive brands in terms of texture and hydration. If you’re at Walmart, definitely keep an eye out for these new flavors. My personal favorites are Strawberry Milkshake for a sweet pink and Cocoa Sugar for that cozy, subtle warmth. Which one will you try first? Let me know!
