Meghan Markle doesn’t just love a good beauty product — she loves a good and truly affordable product. So much so, that even when she switched her American visa out for a royal one years back, it seems she kept her beauty routine virtually the same.

In a Glamour article in 2014, Markle revealed that she was all about a “five-minute face.” That means she curled her lashes, threw on some concealer, applied blush, used lip balm and added highlighter in the inner corner of the eyes, all in under five minutes. Impressive, right? By far the best tidbit she revealed was the $28 lip treatment she wore by!

Prepare to meet your new best friend, the Fresh Sugar Advanced Therapy Lip Treatment. Markle was praising it for years. The former Suits star revealed to Beauty Banter (prior to her royal status) just how much she loved it: “I have searched high and low and tried every kind of lip balm but this is the very best. Soft, kissable, buttery lips. I swear by it.”

Now, before anyone can start to wonder about whether or not this product lives up to her admiration, over 600 Nordstrom reviewers have chimed in as well. One reviewer called it an “absolute must-have” while another said it’s better “than your average lip balm.” But what’s making so many of them deem it their “forever favorite”? Let’s start with its versatility.

Sure, this lip treatment is perfect for anyone on the go. It can be thrown into any bag, duffel or bathroom cabinet and be used morning, day or night and it works exceptionally on every single skin type, tone or texture. Actually, according to a recent Vivo test, 100% of participants found their lips more nourished, supple and moisturized than previously before — which is undoubtedly music to many’s ears.

The summer sun leaves side effects that stick around long after the season ends; lips are dry, chapped and flaking, but not anymore! Here, this treatment will restore them back to their original glory with many users loving how silky-soft their lips didn’t just look but felt as well.

Have we mentioned the ingredients within this flawless formula? It may surprise you, but this lip treatment turns to ingredients such as sea fennel. Why? It helps smooth out the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Together, with the help of orange extract, the two define the lip area, lock in moisture and keep lips protected. Well, we’re blown away — and the reviewers are too. So many of them called it their “go-to” when in dire need of some TLC.

This treatment strays away from other products that offer “short term relief.” Here, it’s all about longevity. One reviewer loved how one application was enough, and she didn’t “need to keep applying” the formula as the day went on. In fact, one reviewer used it “before bed” and found her lips were super moisturized the next morning. Factor in the “sweet smell” and “super cute packaging” and we can completely understand why this lip treatment received the royal seal of approval too!
