  • Luxurious, hydrating textures

  • Travel-friendly, elegant packaging

  • Occasional irritating formulations
  • Sticky lip balm feel
  • Ultra-sheer base coverage
  • Fussy, imperfect packaging

Summer Fridays earns strong reviews for delivering hydrating, glow-giving staples—especially the viral Lip Butter Balm and Jet Lag Mask—which many say keep lips plush for hours and revive dry, travel-worn skin. Reviews also flag meaningful drawbacks: several users report irritation or breakouts (including reactions to Jet Lag and eye formulas), divisive scents and stickiness in some lip shades, very sheer base products, and packaging gripes, making the brand feel overhyped or not worth it for some.

I love the glossy finish and how comfortable it feels throughout the day. The beautiful shades and delicious scents make it even better. Perfect for everyday use!

  • Lasting power and great rosey color. I hope to try other colors. Easy to bring out and stays on through drinking and eating. Color fades nicely over time and isn’t drying like so many other lip stains.

  • I'm really impressed with this new shadedrops. The texture is milky and lightweight, I just love it. It’s easy to blend into the skin and doesn’t leave any whitecast. The finish is glowy but not oily, and it sits well under makeup.

  • The Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm formula is one of the best I’ve tried. It’s rich, hydrating, and leaves my lips feeling soft without being sticky. The Iced Coffee flavor is subtle with a cozy coffee scent that’s perfect for everyday use. It gives a beautiful glossy finish, too.

  • I really do like this butter balm and it’s the first butter balm I’ve ever tried before. I have the brown sugar. And despite it being like a gloss, it still has that color change to my lips, which looked very nice for my skin tone. The overall field to the butter balm was that it felt like a regular lip gloss. It smelled pretty good as well. Would I say if it’s worth $24? I feel like we could probably find another product that’s a lot more similar or if they could just lower their prices but overall, I think it’s pretty good use for a lip product.

  • This is a must have for red eye flights but also a no brained to keep in my nightstand drawer. No more dry tired eyes when I wake up. My eyes legit feel moist and hydrated all the way through the next morning! LOVE this serum.

  • The Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask is genuinely good at what it’s designed for — a quick, overnight-adjacent boost that leaves skin visibly plumper and more radiant, useful before travel, events, or just a rough sleep stretch. The gel-cream texture sinks in without feeling heavy, and a little goes a long way, so the jar lasts longer than the price tag suggests. What could improve: the vitamin C-forward scent is polarizing and can linger on the pillow; it leans more “instant glow” than long-term skin improvement, so don’t expect it to do anything for texture or breakouts over time; and at this price point, the actual ingredient list is fairly simple for what you’re paying — you’re buying the experience and the glow as much as any unique formulation.

  • Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm melts in smoothly and does deliver real, lasting hydration — lips stay soft for hours rather than needing constant reapplication, and the tinted shades give a nice your-lips-but-better flush without looking glossy or sticky. The tradeoffs: it’s genuinely expensive for what’s essentially a tinted balm, the squeeze tube format makes it easy to overdispense and waste product, and the scent (vanilla-forward) can be a bit much if you’re sensitive to fragranced lip products or reapplying often throughout the day. It’s a nice-to-have rather than a must-have — good if the price doesn’t bother you, but there are cheaper balms that hydrate just as well without the tint.

  • I love this lip balm. It's kind of like a lip balm and lip gloss combined. I have the pink one and it smells just like cotton candy. This product lasts a long time so I would say its worth the upfront cost.

  • I did get this product for free as a Sephora birthday gift and I have actually used it a lot, which I don't often do with the Sephora birthday gifts. Great formula. It does make me feel a little bit "hello my fellow kids" but I think I would actually buy one when I run out.
