  • Natural (Clear) Variant – often labeled “Natural” or “Non-Tinted” Ceramide Lip Balm (SPF 50 PA+++). Source: Mywishcare.com
  • Tinted Variant – called “Tinted Ceramide Lip Balm with SPF 50 PA+++” (adds a subtle colour/tint to lips). Wishcare lip balm Source: Mywishcare.com

    What the Brand Claims & Key Ingredients

    • Both variants offer broad-spectrum sun protection: SPF 50, PA+++ (i.e., UVA + UVB coverage) for lips.
    • They include ceramides (e.g., Ceramide NP/AP/EOP) which help restore the lip barrier and lock in moisture.
    • Other active ingredients:
      • Kojic acid + Niacinamide → aimed at reducing lip pigmentation / dark lips.
      • Shea butter, Cocoa butter, Almond/Avocado Oil → for nourishing & softening lips.
    • Features emphasised: non-sticky / buttery texture, no parabens, mineral oil-free.

    Variant-by-Variant Details

    Untinted / Natural Variant

    • Finish: Clear or natural colour, no visible tint.
    • Ideal for users who want protection & lip care without altering lip colour.
    • Good for use day and night; especially useful in harsh conditions since it gives SPF 50.
    • Claims to “heal chapped lips,” “moisturise dry lips,” and “fade pigmentation.”
      Pros:
    • High protection with SPF and barrier support via ceramides.
    • Works for “functional” lip care rather than cosmetic tinting.
      Cons / User Feedback to note:
    • Some users say the radiation/brightening claim (pigmentation reduction) is slow or minimal. “Now, I have emptied more than 4 tubes of the untinted version … for me it didn’t.”
    • Texture can be thick/waxy; may feel heavier than very lightweight lip balms.

    Tinted Variant

    • Adds a subtle tint / light flush of colour (often pinkish) while providing the same SPF50 + barrier care.
    • Useful if you want a bit of colour (instead of totally clear) and still want sun-protection + care.
      Pros:
    • Multi-tasking: moisturise + protect + add slight colour.
    • Reviewers appreciate the tint and sun-protection combo. One user: “It glides on smoothly, keeps my lips soft and moisturised for hours … The subtle tint adds a natural flush …”
      Cons / User Feedback to flag:
    • The tint may not suit all skin tones: “The tinted variant? … I can’t really think of any skin tones on which it would look good …”
    • Some users found it less effective at pigmentation or even drying for them: “Wasted money on this lip balm please avoid.”

    How to Choose Between the Two

    • If you don’t want colour and just want lip care + high sun-protection: go for the Natural / Untinted variant.
    • If you like a slight flush of colour and prefer something with a cosmetic twist and sun-protection: choose the Tinted variant.
    • If you have very pigmented lips (dark lips) and your primary goal is brightening: keep expectations realistic – while ingredients like kojic acid/niacinamide can help, results may take time and may be modest.
    • If you have sensitive lips (eczema, very chapped, etc), check texture and patch-test first (some users reported dryness/allergic reactions). “I got allergic contact cheilitis due to this … the texture is kinda waxy and it’s full of fragrance.”

    How to Use for Best Results

    • Apply an even layer of the lip balm when lips feel dry or before sun exposure.
    • Reapply every 2-3 hours if you’re outdoors or exposed to wind/sun.
    • At night: even though designed for day sun-use, you can still use it for overnight barrier repair (untinted variant may be better for this if you dislike tint at night).
    • Remove dead skin flakes via gentle lip exfoliation occasionally (once a week) to help any brightening effect work.
    • Store properly – according to packaging and avoid very hot/humid conditions.

    Final Verdict

    If I summarise:

    • WishCare Ceramide Lip Balm are very strong on sun-protection + barrier care (SPF 50 + ceramides) which is somewhat rare in lip-balm space at this price point.
    • Between the two, your choice depends on whether you want tint or not.
    • They are not miracle brighteners-pigmentation reduction will depend on consistent use, underlying cause of pigmentation, and additional lifestyle factors (sun exposure, smoking, dehydration, etc).
    • Some user experiences are mixed – while many like the moisture and protection, others felt the brightening claim didn’t live up. “For me it didn’t really change lip pigmentation …”
    • If your lips are very dry / severely chapped, you might still need a heavier occlusive balm at night (like plain petrolatum) + a lighter balm like WishCare lip balm during the day.
