I'm thinking about buying this. Should I?
You don't need that, OP. The best way to take care of your lips is to drink enough water.

Lip balms are a complete scam, and that's coming from someone who's bought so many different "revolutionary" ones over the course of my life, thinking each one will somehow transform my lips. The most recent ones with peptides are the most outrageous innovation yet, but people keep buying them.
The main problem is that all those organic compounds constantly signal to lips to pull back on the moisture because it's all taken care of by the balm already. And so the more you use it, the drier your lips become, until you're applying it every five minutes.
Just drink enough water each day and apply pure petroleum jelly, which is inorganic and as such won't interact with your lips and won't absorb, so in theory you only need to apply it in between meals. You won't believe how soft your lips will become even after one day.

I doubt it works better than a $5 Burt's Bees lip balm. Plus there's the added embarrassment of it looking like lipstick 💄

Blistex in the pink pot is the best.

OP- that does indeed look like a lip product for women. Not to mention, a total ripoff. Don't.

Drink water and buy Carmex.
You don’t need that stuff.

Honestly, the only way any moisturizer works is that you put it on over already moist skin.

Don't overdo your niacin intake, and you'll be fine just staying very well hydrated.
