I purchased this item because i needed a lip balm to keep my lips soft and did not contain petroleum. I liked that it instead had shea butter and jojoba oil. The shimmer made my lips look too pale and oddly frosty and did not enhance the look of my lips at all. It smells nice but was dry and hard to apply. It wasn't smooth like I had expected. My lips actually felt chapped rather than moisturized. I do not recommend this product.

I actually purchased two of these when they were on sale (Ulta). I'm always misplacing things, so I kept one @home w/my lip products & 1 in my  purse. I tried the one in my purse - couldn't find my "back-up" lipstick, so I just swiped this on quickly. It left a very very light shimmer w/the teeniest amount of colour. It did soothe my lips, although not long lasting. I was constantly reapplying. I didn't notice a strong odor or taste.
I forgot about the one in my lipstick case - where I keep all my lippies. I love mattes, but they are very drying for me. I abs love using this product as a "topper." It does lighten my lipstick colour, which I don't mind, and I love the consistency of it. Many other products I've used on top of matte lipsticks usually dissipate in minutes or are too glossy. This One has a balmy feel, and even though I do have to keep reapplying, I do find I am able to wear matte lipsticks more comfortably now. If this were priced any higher, I may not purchase. At the price I purchased, under $5, I like that I can purchase a lot & not worry about using sparingly.

In hindsight this is a cool product, but it isn’t that great for me. As a chapstick, it’s primary function, it’s nice. It hydrates and moisturizes. Cool. The kicker for me is the color. It’s an extremely pale pink that wouldn’t look too good on certain skin tones, and it has a lot of chunky shimmery glitter in it that makes it look kinda clumpy. Not my go to chapstick.

With our lips being exposed to the changing weather all the time, lip balm is an important tool to carry around all the time. I don’t wear lipstick so I like a lip balm that gives a little cheer to the lips while protecting my lips. The Pearly Shine does exactly what I need. It is smooth on the lips and gives a neutral color with some shine. Works great if you only have a space for one lip care in your purse!

I love the feeling of this on my lips along with the pretty shimmery color it gives to my lips. it is lightweight and doesn’t even feel too heavy. My lips feel refreshed when using this and it gives them a very healthy look. It is not sticky and very hydrating. I would definitely recommend this to fellow friends.

Very nice color to apply. The shimmer is nice and glossy without feeling greasy. I purchased this at my local Wal-Mart. I usually love the Nivea lip care products but this was just a no. It didn't stay on at all. Was not moisturizing. I would not purchased this again. It only looks great for the first 5 minutes.

I have purchased this product 3 times, once in fall, winter and spring. I found from the first product I used, it’s definitely not the most hydrating lip balm/chap, etc. I definitely noticed the product just sat on top of my skin and was not long-lasting. I really wanted the benefits of hydration in this product because the light pink shimmer was gorgeous, but had very limited long-wear and barely any pigmentation.
I would definitely recommend Nivea changing the formula to make it more hydrating and also greatly increase the pigment for the pink shimmer. Then it would be perfect and I would continuously buy and use!

I’m not as huge of a fan of this balm, as compared to Nivea’s hydrating balm. This does give a nice subtle shimmer, but doesn’t do much in the way of moisturizing. I’d much prefer using a gloss or lip stain for color or shine, and stick to Nivea’s hydrating balm when my lips need moisturized.

I’ll admit, when I was in high school I loved this stuff but I have come to my senses. The color is a really bad idea for a chapstick because it really just makes the lips look way worse than they did before. It smudges on the lips and causes all the cracks from your chapped lips to show big time.

This product did its job but i didn’t like how it left a lot of shimmer to my lips I thought that it was going to be very light like you were not going to be able to see it I wouldn’t recommend this product if you don’t want full on “lipstick” on your lips but it was very nice it glides in smoothly but I would recommend the original
