Disclaimer: I purchased these.
Almay Color + Care Liquid Lip Balms are supposed to give lips the comfort and care of a balm with the flirty color and shine of a gloss. Being the lip balm/gloss junkie that I am, of course that is appealing. Do they deliver?First, let's look at the hydration claims of instantly doubling your lip's moisture level and tripling it if worn all day. I'll give this a thumbs up, as I found these to be very comfortable and moisturizing to my lips. There are only a few lip gloss brands that I can wear exclusively without also resorting to a balm or lip salve for moisture at some point during the day (Buxom is one). The Color + Care lip balms feel even better and I could completely forgo any other lip balm while wearing these. Très à l'aise!
These are petrolatum based, which does a good job of locking in moisture. Beyond that, however, we've got moisturizing ingredients like avocado and sunflower oils, vitamin e, and aloe. They are lightly scented with a vanilla/creme brulee type of fragrance, which I smell for a short while after applying. I find it pleasant, but if you don't like fragrance in your products...
