Seriously, These Are The Best Lip Balms For Fall
It's officially fall y'all! Can you believe it?
Now that the seasons have switched up (e.g. fall leaves, the sun setting super early, etc.) you might be itching for a wardrobe change. But, we're here to remind you not to stop there — your makeup bag always needs a tiny overhaul.
The subtle (or major) changes of the weather can affect you in more ways than one. The main culprit? Your lips, often exposed, are stripped of moisture due to dropping temps and consistent exposure to artificial heaters. Yes, honey, it gets real!
We want you to stay kissably hydrated, so to prep you, we've created a list of the top 10 lip balms that you should have on deck. Smooches!
Carmex Comfort Care Mixed Berry Lip Balm ($3)
A long-standing favorite of many, Carmex has been the go-to for getting perfectly soft lips. With the cooler weather coming, try the Carmex Comfort Care Mixed Berry Lip Balm ($3). You can actually score a two pack for the low low.
Burts Bees' Beeswax Lip Balm ($4)
Maybelline New York Baby Lips Balm ($5)
