I’ve been waiting, and waiting, and waiting for these to be available online, but I’m now thinking that perhaps they’re going to only be sold on counters – because they’re at the shops, and they’re on the Clarins site, but I still can’t find them at Sephora, Nordstrom, or Bloomingdale’s online.

Anyhow. These have been available since forever (May), so I’d recommend you get out there and find them before these limited edition balms mysteriously disappear!

The product: Clarins Instant Smooth Crystal Lip Balm in Crystal

This is my least favourite of the three, so I figured we’d get the photos and swatches of it out of the way, first. (Photos for Crystal Coral and Crystal Red are on the way.) It’s my least favourite because it’s the most sheer, imparting shine but no colour, but the formula is essentially the same throughout all three shades.
