The 8 Best Lip Balms With SPF, Because Your Kisser Is Just As Likely To Get Sunburned
Sunscreen is great, and we all know how important it is to slather it on daily, especially during the summer. But one thing people often forget is to protect their lips as well, which is why you need to read this roundup of the best lip balms with SPF you can find on the market.
Alba Botanica Very Emollient Sunscreen Lip Care SPF 25
This natural lip balm is made without fragrances, parabens, or artificial colors and isn’t tested on animals, which makes it ideal for people with sensitive skin.

Chapstick Sun Defense SPF 25
A Chapstick-branded product had to make this list, and my pick is the high-SPF active balm. This will stay put for hours at a time. If you want to stick with the classic Chapstick moisturizing balm, you’re still covered. It has an SPF of 25.

Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm SPF 25
This ultra-hydrating lip balm comes in cool flavors like mint, grapefruit ginger, and black tea blackberry. It’s made with shea butter and avocado oil for extra moisture.
LaRocca Lip Shield Multi-Active Lip Balm
This lip gloss doubles as a balm with SPF 8, which means you’ll have to reapply more often. But with five adorable colors to choose from, that shouldn’t be a problem.
Lorac Breakthrough Performance Lipstick
Even though it’s not technically a lip balm, this Lorac lipstick had to be included. The SPF 15 lipstick glides on smooth and comes in five shades, including a dusty rose color that’s perfect for everyday wear.

Nivea A Kiss of Protection Lip Care SPF 30
This broad-spectrum SPF 30 lip balm will protect your lips even on the sunniest days. It’s moisturizing and swipes on easily.
Shiseido Sun Protection Lip Treatment SPF 36
This balm from Shiseido has the highest SPF (and the highest price) on our list, but it’s worth the splurge if you want serious protection. It defends against UVA and UVB rays and is super lightweight.
Supergoop Fusion Lip Balm with SPF 30+
Supergoop’s lip balm comes in two flavors, acai and mint. The acai is lightly tinted and the mint is super refreshing, but both are perfect for everyday use.
