Best tinted lip balm?

69 replies

carrie74 · 23/05/2021 13:27

I fancy a lip balm that also gives a bit of colour, and would love some real life testimonials. I've got winter colouring, so would tend to avoid any hint of brown, beige or coral shades, but rosy pinks and berries are good. And definitely something that is actually a lip balm rather than a lip gloss.

Anyone got something that they love?

Berts Bees are nice always get a reccomendation on LipBalm threads .

I have a Pomegranate one thats got a nice colour and more a balm than a gloss

Also Lanolips Rhubarb which is gloopier but pretty colour

Burt not Bert

Many thanks! I've got some BRT Bees, but there's no colour to them at all, perhaps I've got the wrong ones, will take a look.

Spotted the Lanolips yesterday and though it looked quite good, glad to hear it recommended.

Burt's Bees Tinted lip balm in Violet is my favourite.

I still love benebalm (the Benefit lip balm, same colour as Benetint)

Bananaman123 · 23/05/2021 19:57

Love this from Nars I gave 2 of the dolce vita as was so impressed by it

Laufeythejust · 23/05/2021 20:01

Carmex moisture plus lip balm from boots (the one in a stick) is lovely. It comes in a few different colours but I like the pink one.

Kdubs1981 · 23/05/2021 20:05

Pink Vaseline!

schofieldsunderpants · 23/05/2021 20:06

I love the rosy Vaseline

Maybelline Baby Lips did a great purple shade but I think it has been discontinued.
Have a look at their other shades.
Lovely balm.
La Roche Posay do one too. I have a deep red LRP but not sure if they still do it.

Korres Lip Butter in Wild Rose is my favourite. It was the nearest I could find to replace Benetint lip balm in the little pots when they discontinued it Sad.

Fallsballs · 23/05/2021 22:14

@jelly79 are those just tinted lip balms ? They look good.

Miseryisabutterfly · 23/05/2021 22:23

I like the Vichy ones

247SylviaPlath · 23/05/2021 22:41

The burts bees ones - they honestly are the tits

A couple of years ago I found a load in Poundland of a shade they had obviously discontinued - I bought 20 Wink and am about running out now because I get through one a month Hmm

However - do not leave one in a hot car, they melt - it was not a good moment.

On the pricier side than some of these suggestions but Fresh do the best tinted lip balms I have ever used. They have a good range of colours and the colour payoff is very good, they smell amazing and leave your lips in tip top condition. You can buy them in Space NK, John Lewis, Harrods and via the Fresh Website. They are around the £20 mark for one but it will last you.

Baby lips by maybeline loads of shades on Amazon and the best lip balm I’ve used by far after using much more expensive ones I’ve tried a few of the shades and thought they where all true to colour

I like good old simple Lypsyl. Sadly it seems to be getting harder to find in the supermarkets round here, lately. Has it been discontinued?

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 24/05/2021 02:46

Maybelline Baby Lips in Cherry Me is my favourite

I like Dr Pawpaw. Got it in an advent calendar I think!

Kosas Kosasport Lipfuel Hyaluronic balm is really good and comes in lovely colours.

Juancornetto · 24/05/2021 07:03

Burt's Bees in Red Dhalia

PalacePaper · 24/05/2021 07:29

Carmex used to do a really nice one in a stick but it was discontinued  I've a paw paw red one from Superdrug which is nice.

The maybelline ones look good, haven't seen them in shops do you get them online? The ones @jelly79 linked look lovely, might try one of those...

andrewscottmaybe · 24/05/2021 08:10

Maybelline make up stand in Boots or Tesco often have them.
