Maui Mike's Lip Balm SPF 15, Pina Colada 24 ea

Maui Mike's Lip Balm SPF 15, Pina Colada 24 eaThis lip balm is fantastic. It does indeed "glide on smooth" and the smell reminds me of a tropical beach. It goes on clear and is thick enough to stay on a while without being goopy. Aloe vera and Vitamin E do a great job moisturizing, and the SPF 15 is a higher protection factor than you will find in a lot of lip balms.

So why did I only give it four stars? It melts in higher heat more quickly than other lip balms I've used. I carried it around with me in Omaha in June (temperature in the low 90s) and it got soft and smush-y quickly. (Others I have used in that type of heat will get softer and melt slightly, but not like this.) I learned to open it carefully so as to avoid getting chunks of lip balm all over my hands. The good news is that it's still not too difficult to apply like that, and once you get back to a cooler locale, it will quickly regain its original shape. Just be forewarned, may not be the best for a boiling hot day at the beach.

Still recommended!
