Lip balms are a necessity, especially in winter. Your lips, much like the rest of your skin, are far more vulnerable to dryness and cracking during the colder months. Sure, you can just swipe on ChapStick or Vaseline to combat the seasonal stressors, but we're looking for a bit more. We not only want a soft and hydrated kisser, we want to really shine. Enter glossy lip balms.
They're a hybrid of the must-have moisturizing treatment and a shiny lip gloss. For the purpose of this roundup, we're focusing on clear versions. Basically, they add a little gloss for your-lips-but-better vibes. Now that doesn't mean they're all unscented. Don't worry, though. None of the flavors are overpowering. Think a dose of natural vanilla or a hint of Bulgarian rose.
