Olio E Osso - Natural Lip & Cheek Balm No. 2 French Melon

I saw Rachel Brosnahan doing one of those makeup routines on YouTube and I was super inspired by her clean, simple look. She used this product on her lips, eyes, and eye lids and I thought it was brilliant - moisturizing with a natural looking glow - but I was VERY skeptical because I have olive skin. I bought the color French and it looks so nice. It does fade quickly but it's also very easy to reapply, and looks so fresh and natural. I suggest going to the olio e osso website and looking at the different colors on the different skin tones - this makes a HUGE difference in making the right choice and Amazon photos don't really show what you need to see. Good luck. It's an investment, but if you have good skin and your want to look natural 👍🏼👍🏼 two thumbs up!

The melon color is a nice hue that could work on warm or cool skin tones. The scent is nice as well and I don’t mind it. Works very nice for cheeks or lip color. Staying power is as expected… Not super long lasting but not too bad overall. Makes my lips feel pretty moisturized.

I had this product in my cart for months before actually purchasing it and I'm really glad I finally did. I have been using it primarily as a lip gloss and it's easy to apply, and the color shows without being garish or without my having to apply a ton. I'm not a huge makeup person so don't always feel confident about what to buy or how to apply it - but this has been an easy win.

This stuff is like magic -- find the shade that's right for you and it instantly brightens cheeks, lips, and lids. I love that it goes on smooth and is non-toxic. I keep one in my purse at all times.

This balm has become my go-to when I'm in a hurry and running out the door and when I'm traveling. A quick swipe across the cheeks and lips leaves a fresh, natural looking glow. The small packaging fits easily into my travel case. I will be trying more colors.
