Check out our top picks for best smelling moisturizing lip balms!

How To Choose A Lip Balm 

Now that summer has arrived, it's important to protect both your skin and lips from too much sun exposure which can make your lips feel dry and chapped. Not a great look if you want soft, kissable lips! If you normally wear any lipstick or lipgloss, summer is the time to trade it in for a sheer tinted lip balm - it looks fresher and more natural and feels much lighter too. All you have to do is swipe some tinted lip balm on and go - no mirror required! But how do you pick the most moisturizing lip balms?

There are so many choices, all promising the same thing, but not all are created equal. Look for ingredients like shea butter, almond oil, coconut oil, beeswax, cocoa butter, and any other natural oils like coconut oil. A major added bonus is whether or not the lip balm has SPF sun protection. Avoid lip balms that smell too artificial and have menthol or camphor in it - they will feel nice at first but they only dry your lips out more!
