I tried the clear City Lips, and I am so excited that it really does keep my lips moisturized! I didn't feel like I needed to add anything extra for drying out. I am quite pleased with my first tube and am ready to try a colored tube now. I have only been using City Lips for a couple of weeks, so I haven't YET seen a big difference, but I haven't had the feeling to reapply during the day, and when I look in the mirror, my lips still appear moist with a moderate glossy look.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
