What this product is (and a bit of naming confusion)
The product often called “Sugar Plum/Luxurious” by Zaron is more commonly marketed as a lip-gloss, not strictly a “lip balm.” Many stores list it as “Zaron Luxurious Lip Gloss – Sugar Plum (6–6.5 ml)”.

Its formula is described as pigment-rich and glossy, rather than a plain balm.

According to the product pages, it’s designed to give a shiny, “juicy pout” finish, rather than just hydration — so it behaves more like a gloss or tinted gloss than a typical balm.

👉 In other words: even if listed colloquially as “lip balm,” this Zaron “Sugar Plum Luxurious” product is best treated as a lip gloss with moisturizing / glossy finish.

🌟 What it claims / what it does
It delivers a glossy shine and subtle color/pigment (in “Sugar Plum” shade) that can give lips a fuller, “juicy” look.
The formula is described as moisturizing / conditioning — meant to soften lips and help maintain lip hydration, so lips don’t feel dry while wearing it.
It has a smooth, non-sticky texture (according to seller descriptions), with a doe-foot applicator for easy application.

You can wear it alone, for a natural glossy look, or layer it over lipstick for added shine / dimension.

⚠️ What to expect / possible drawbacks & what to check

Because it’s a gloss, not a dedicated balm, the pigment / shine may be more prominent than hydration — so if you want something purely for lip care (for severely dry/chapped lips), it might not deliver as intensively as a “treatment balm.”

Glosses usually require re-application: moisture, shine, or pigment may fade after eating or drinking — same likely applies here.

If you have very dry or sensitive lips, a gloss might feel lighter or less protective than a balm that uses heavier waxes or occlusives.

Since many retailers call it “gloss,” you should check the packaging to ensure you’re getting the “Sugar Plum / Luxurious Gloss” — not a plain balm — if you want that glossy finish.

💡 Who this product is good for

You want a glossy, polished lip look — something that adds shine and polish rather than just moisture.

You like gloss with subtle colour/pigment + some conditioning, suitable for everyday wear or over lipstick.

Your lips are generally healthy (not severely chapped) — so you just want a combination of shine + light moisturization, not heavy lip therapy.

You want a convenient, on-the-go lip gloss that’s easy to apply and gives a “fresh / dressed-up” lip finish.
