I’m severely addicted to MAC Tendertone Lip Balm. More of a subtly shiny lipgloss than a lip balm, Tendertone gives just a hint of tint while providing SPF 12 protection and keeping your lips lush and moisturized.
The only bad thing I have to say about Tendertone is that MAC didn’t bring back Warm Smile, my fave shade of perfectly pink-beige.
The more I use it, the more I love it. The more I love it, the more I freak out that with every sweet, slippery swipe, I’m getting closer to the bottom of the pot.
Hopefully I can find a suitable replacement with one of the new summer shades that MAC recently added to the Tendertone collection.
If not, I guess I’ll just have to live with the bittersweetness of having just one waning pot left.
MAC Tendertone Lip Balm is available for $14.50 from MAC or Nordstrom.
Is anyone else as severely addicted to MAC Tendertones? Want to share your current lippie addiction? Be sure to leave a comment ; )

I am OBSESSED with Tendertones too, to the point that I even buy colors that don’t work on me. I love the chic little glass pot and the yummy jolly rancher scent.

ha! It’s funny that you said that…I didn’t mention this in the review, but I actually have a pot of “Deep Sigh.” I’m not wild about the color, but I do wear it around the house when I need my Tendertone fix.
One of these days I’ll learn my lesson about stocking up on limited editions that I fall in love with : )
And, yes, I love the nummy scent, too!

Tendertone Lip Balm is ecstatic and especially the Sweet tooth color looks stunning worn on the lips.

francy, thank you for the great tip! I had forgotten about eBay!!
Funny enough, I wandered into my local Cosmetics Company Store this weekend and, lo and behold, Mac Tendertone in Warm Smile!! I snapped up all three that were there.
Hmmm, am I obsessive enough to keep acquiring them (via eBay)…lol, I’m so tempted!
