- Lip balms with SPF are a quick and easy way to keep your lips moisturized and prevent sunburns.
- Our top pick is Burt's Bees All-Weather Lip Balm with SPF 15 because it's affordable, natural, and water-resistant.
Hopefully, a daily use of sunscreen is already a part of your beauty routine.
Not only does applying SPF stop sunburns, but it can also prevent skin damage and premature wrinkles. Even when people are concerned with protecting their skin, they often forget to take care of their lips as well.
But in reality, sun protection for your lips is just as if not more important. Our lips have a thinner layer of cells compared to the rest of our skin and they contain less melanin, the pigment that helps protect our skin from the sun.
As someone who has seen her fair share of unfortunate sunburns, I can honestly say that besides the back of your knees, your lips are also one of the most painful spots to get a sunburn. The easiest way you can prevent burned lips is to invest in a good lip balm that offers SPF protection. A lip balm with SPF will not only help fend off the sun's harmful UV rays but they'll keep your lips moisturized.
With the overwhelming amount of options out there, finding the right lip balm with SPF can be daunting. So we did the research to find the best-reviewed balms you can buy. Whether you are looking for a tinted option or one that comes in yummy flavors, these are the lips balms with SPF to keep on your radar.
