7. Vincent Longo Baby Balm Lipstick SPF 12
This has to be the best lipstick ever. Vincent Longo’s Baby Balm Lipstick SPF 12, is an unique lipstick because it has the protective ingredients of a lip balm. It features:
• Vitamins C and E paired with Apricot Nut Oils soothe the lips and protect against free radical damage.
• High shine polymers guarantee a long lasting glossy finish.
• A balanced mix of waxes and lightweight oils create a thin protective barrier on the lips that does not bleed over the lip line or feel greasy.

• Organic sun filters block ultra-violet rays.

The color is also very sexy and sheer so its perfect for the day time and night! Try my favorite color…Fresh Carnal. It’s perfect for almost every complexion.

Price: $23.00

8. Mac’s Tendertone Lip Balm SPF 12
Of course the world’s favorite makeup line (ok, well mine at least) would come up with a cure for chapped lips. They actually have a few products that work well but their new Tendertone Lip Balm is my favorite. This new lipcolor is so soft and comfortable on your lips. Unlike other glosses and balms that Mac carries, it wont leave your lips sticky or too glossy (it leaves a satin finish). Formulated with petroleum and SPF 12, you can rock this balm everyday as sun protection too! Killing two birds with one stone…nice!

Price: $14.50
Available at all Mac stores

9. Bliss Breath Freshening Lip Balm: Mint
A lip balm that softens your lips and “simultaneously sweetens your breath” at the same time. Simply genius…

Price: $14.00

10. Benefit Benetint Lip Balm
I must admit that Im a tad bit addicted to this last product. Benefit is such a girly brand and I am one of their loyal followers. The Benetint lip Balm is filled with Vitamin E & emollients…and leaves the most perfect natural rose tint on your lips. I usually wear it by itself but you can also wear it over your favorite lipstick.

Price: $20.00
Available at any Sephora stores


Ok ladies, so now you have 10 reasons why your lips should never look less than stunning. Go grab one of these products and happy kissing :-)
