These Are The Best (+ Prettiest!) Products For Dry, Desperate Lips

Cold weather months are brutal on your skin. Even more specifically, they are brutal on your lips. Your lips don’t have oil glands like most of the skin, so they are extra vulnerable to the elements like cold temperatures and wind chills. It’s a well-known fact that your lips get chapped, dry and flaky in the fall and winter months, we’re not reinventing the wheel here. But, we have tried an extensive list of lip products featuring all different types of problem solving promises, and these 10 are by far the best.

Meow Meow Tweet Vegan Lip Balm

The sweet orange tangerine flavor of this balm is a dream. We also love that this cruelty-free brand uses only clean ingredients, and comes in a super-cool biodegradable tube!

Squalane+ Rose Vegan Lip Balm

This delicately scented rose lip balm is so smooth and never clumpy or congeals. It instantly hydrates your lips and leaves a pretty, natural-looking shine.

 

KUSH Lip Balm

Don’t worry, this won’t leave your lips looking like the Wicked Witch of the West! The green lip balm dries clear and uses cannabis seed oil to hydrate and calm irritated dry lips. If you’re looking for a pop of color, it also comes in four beautiful tints for that perfect natural pout.

Smith’s Rosebud Salve

The tried-and-true original. You can’t go wrong with this hydrating little tin of rosebud goodness.

It might not be the Dr. Pepper-flavored one you proudly carried around in elementary school, but this elevated Lip Smacker lip balm will help you ward off the effects of cold weather days.

Lips in need of a little extra TLC? This overnight sleeping mask will have you feeling like a new woman when you wake up.

Ever tried to apply lipstick to dry, flaky lips? It’s a no-go. But with Kosas’s hydrating formula, you don’t have to worry about that. And the high-impact colors last all day without needing to reapply!
