From what I've read (researching the ingredients, and how irritating they are or aren't) they're about midrange. Beautypedia has pretty good write-ups on them here
That said, I absolutely love their Vitamin E & Peppermint lip balm. I'm a lip picker and tend to have dry chapped lips all the time even without picking at them. I like the peppermint cooling sensation and this is one of the only chapsticks I've tried that really fixes my lips when they're chapped and helps maintain a baseline level of good.
According to beautypedia, their colors aren't super long lasting, but are typical for hydrating lip color length, and do hydrate for a long period, which is good.
So, I guess the answer really depends on what you're looking for!

I've always used the Carmex lip balm and just finished a stick. Saw that someone had gotten me a Burt's bees stick and started using it yesterday. I have to keep reapplying it every 10 min where the Carmex would only need 3-4 per day. Not sure what the hype about Burt's bees is.

I'm rich biatch!!!
I find the majority of Burts Bees products to be letdowns. It's just not a high quality product.

EDM is garbage
A lot of chapsticks and lip balms are absolute shit for your lips. Aquaphor is the superior solution for dry lips.

Yes it’s overrated and it doesn’t even work. I always get peeling lips. But I have found the BEST lip balm and that’s the one from Molton Brown. If you try that one, you will never use anything else🙌

They put alcohol in the lip balm so your lips will dry out and you'll have to keep applying more.

· 1 yr. agoI’m a pale white ginger, so I feel like I have a pretty good opinion on what chapsticks rank above others. That being said, Burt’s Bees are actually my chapstick of choice. Only the original though, besides that the others are absolute garbage.

I absolutely agree. It's actually made my lips worse in the past. I know I am not allergic to bee products because I buy bee products individually to make my own skincare creams. Burt's Bees is just a fail for me.
