The Best Lip Balms on the Market

Hydrating your lips should be on the top of your daily beauty routine. I know I hate it when I put on lipstick and you can see my lips peeling - that is not attractive at all. Your lips are the most vulnerable part of your face, because the skin is so thin its is often the first area of your face to show signs of dryness. The purpose of lip balm is to seal in moisture and to protect your lips from the rough elements we expose ourselves to on a daily basis.  It is important to find a lip balm that has SPF protection; the summer can be quite tough on your lips.

Over the years, I have tried many different brands of lip balms to find my perfect match. It seems that the last couple of years the Lip Balm industry has stepped up it's game with new and innovating products to quench our thirsty lips.  Top players on my list are Baby Lips by Mabelline, Burt's Bee's, Color Whisper also by Maybelline, and eos.

This brand is known for making natural skin products and is an environmentally conscious company. This balm has coconut and sunflower oils packed with vitamins and fatty acids that thoroughly condition your lips. The only thing I didn't like about this product was the peppermint oil - not a big fan of that and only has SPF 8 protection. This product is also under $5.

My perfect match

Acts like lip balm but looks like lipstick. Maybelling came out with a line of tinted lip balm without heavy waxes and oils - perfect for the summer. Color Whisper comes in 20 beautiful shades and feels just like Baby Lips with SPF 15. You can Purchase this product for under $10 and is worth every penny.
