10 SPF Lip Balms You'll Actually Like Reapplying
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy.
I have a confession: Despite religiously applying SPF on my face since I was a teenager, I rarely think about protecting my lips. It also felt like a hassle—wouldn't it just wear off every time I drank water or ate something? Recently, I've realized the fault in my ways. Yes, it comes off more frequently than my facial sunscreen, but I also have no problem reapplying my lipsticks and lip glosses. Plus, the skin on your lips is just as, if not more, vulnerable to sun damage. 'Chronic sun exposure can lead to a precancerous condition called actinic cheilitis. If skin cancers occur on the lips, they tend to be more aggressive,' says Dr. Allyson Brockman-Bitterman, a board-certified dermatologist at Schweiger Dermatology Group in Millburn, NJ. So, I commenced my search for the best lip balms with SPF.
Thankfully, gone are the days of the strangely textured, awful-tasting lip balms with SPF. These days, many of them have sophisticated formulas infused with nourishing ingredients, like lanolin and shea butter. Plus, there are plenty of protective tinted lip balms if you want some color. All of this makes it easier to wear them every day, as recommended by Dr. Lauren Moy, a double-board-certified dermatologist and surgeon based in Beverly Hills. 'Daily is ideal to help prevent photoaging,' she says, but it's especially important to wear one during 'prolonged activities outdoors such as hiking, surfing, and sports.'
With the help of our experts, thorough internet sleuthing, and personal trial-and-error, we've landed on some winners that you'll want to reapply. Check out the 10 best lip balms with SPF below.
Tatcha's luxurious formulas have a large following, and it's not hard to see why. This lip tint provides SPF 25 protection and hydration, thanks to silk protein and lanolin. It also comes in three gorgeous shades: a soft berry, a subtle red, and a delicate coral.
Active ingredients: Octisalate, zinc oxide
Size: 0.14 oz.
Tatcha rating: 4.9/5 stars
An ELLE editor says: 'In Korea, there's this category of lip products that women consider 'bare face lips'—in other words, lip products that work even when you don't have any other makeup on. This new launch from Japanese brand Tatcha is definitely flattering on me whether I'm wearing a full face or not. The shades just brighten up my complexion, and of course, the sun protection is a huge plus.' —Carol Lee, ELLE.com associate beauty e-commerce writer
Jack Black may be geared toward men, but the formulas are too lovely to resist. One of the brand's hero products is its lip balm, which contains two kinds of SPF as well as a bevy of skin-softening ingredients. Its antioxidants also help to guard the skin against damage from the free radicals created by UV rays.
Active ingredients: Avobenzone, octinoxate, petrolatum
Size: 0.25 oz.
Sephora rating: 4.7/5 stars
An ELLE editor says: 'Jack Black's lip balm is my favorite one to wear as I'm doing the rest of my makeup. A few swipes moisturize my lips quickly and prep them for whatever matte lipstick I want to apply that morning. But it's also become my go-to for my chronically dry lips on lazy, lipstick-free days.' —Carol Lee
If you have sensitive skin, a mineral sunscreen like the zinc oxide this lip balm has is your safest bet. The formula stays water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, which means you won't have to worry about sweat or humidity affecting its efficacy.
Active ingredients: Octinoxate, zinc oxide
Size: 0.28 oz.
Amazon rating: 4.3/5 stars
An Amazon reviewer says: 'My dermatologist recommended this as I have some precancerous spots on my bottom lip (he says that's the most common place for skin cancer!). I hate spf in lip balms because it has a horrible taste, but this has no gross aftertaste to it. It does have a bit of a white cast, but nothing too crazy.'
Peptide lip treatments are all the rage these days, and this Colorscience lip treatment-gloss hybrid delivers plenty of peptides to plump lips while imparting high shine. Perfect for someone who wants sun protection but can't give up their gloss.
Active ingredients: Zinc oxide
Size: 0.13 fl. oz.
Colorscience rating: 4.6/5 stars
A Colorscience reviewer says: 'Love this SPF lip gloss. Super hydrating and the colors are awesome. Love rose and pink! The color definitely lasts long on your lips too!'
This lip balm with SPF 'is super hydrating even though it's a stick,' says Dr. Brockman-Bitterman. It's no wonder the formula is bursting with shea butter and vitamins, which is basically an ideal salve for chapped lips.
Active ingredients: Avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, octocrylene
Size: 0.17 oz.
Amazon rating: 4.7/5 stars
An Amazon reviewer says: 'This is the only chapstick I have ever used that doesn't feel like you need to reapply every five minutes to get it to work. Wish there was more in the tube, but worth it anyway.'
Hidden in the aisles of your favorite drugstore is this lip-protecting superstar. This Neutrogena lip balm tints the lips without being too obvious, and it somehow moisturizes without feeling heavy. This pick is also designed to even texture with continuous use.
Active ingredients: Octinoxate, oxybenzone
Size: o.15 oz.
An Amazon reviewer says: 'I used this lip balm many years ago and totally forgot about it until seeing it here. I find I like the darker colors more because they give a little more tint to my lips. And it smooths them out. Really glad I found this again. I now have different ones stashed everywhere.'
Developed by dermatologists, MDSolarSciences' lip balm with SPF is a quintessential my-lips-but-better product. The shade range includes seven flattering hues, so there's sure to be one that strikes your fancy.
Active ingredients: Avobenzone, octisalate, homosalate
Size: 0.15 oz.
MDSolarSciences rating: 4.8/5 stars
An MDSolarSciences reviewer says: 'My lips are so sensitive to the sun, and this is the first SPF lip product I have tried that doesn't feel greasy and actually protects my lips from the sun. I got the shade Shimmer, and it looks so natural and pretty. The formula left my lips feeling so soft and hydrated. HIGHLY recommend!'
This award-winning lip balm's main purpose is to supply broad-spectrum sun protection and does it well. While many complain about the disagreeable taste and slippery texture of some lip balms with SPF, this formula manages to sidestep those pitfalls.
Active ingredients: Octocrylene, octisalate, avobenzone
Paula's Choice rating: 4.4/5 stars
A Paula's Choice reviewer says: 'So smooth and so creamy, love the sunscreen, stays on my lips for hours! Super shiny like I'm wearing a gloss. Totally in love with it!'
If you enjoy the sweeter things in life, this SPF 30 pick might be the one for you. Inspired by the islands, it smells and tastes like delectable vanilla brown sugar. The newest shade, Nude Ting, is a nude pink you won't be able to keep off your lips. Be careful, your friends might beg for a swipe or two.
Active ingredients: Avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate
Size: 0.35 oz
Sephora rating: 3.8/5 stars
A Sephora reviewer says: 'I was a little worried about this product because usually, lip products with SPF give me a film and a bad taste. This lip gloss works like regular lip gloss—which is so relieving. There is a slight taste, but nothing too bad. I'll definitely be keeping it in my beach bag! (Smells nice, too.)'
You don't have to sacrifice statement lip colors just because you care about your lip health. This Supergoop! lip balm has plenty of options on the brighter end of the spectrum, like a bold coral and a quintessential fuschia.
Size: o.12 oz.
Supergoop! rating: 4.5/5 stars
A Supergoop! reviewer says: 'I love the pop of color while knowing I'm protecting my lips. Makes me feel glamorous on the beach.'
Dr. Lauren Moy is a double board-certified dermatologist and surgeon based in Beverly Hills.
Dr. Allyson Brockman-Bitterman is a board-certified dermatologist at Schweiger Dermatology Group in Millburn, NJ.
'Lip SPF should be part of a daily routine,' says Dr. Brockman-Bitterman. As a rule, Dr. Moy recommends reapplying every one to two hours 'because we do so much with our mouths, like lick our lips, talk, eat, and drink.'
According to Dr. Moy, there is no real difference between the two, other than the fact that tinted ones may be a tiny bit harder to remove. 'No matter if there is a tint or not, the numbered SPF is the most important factor,' she says.

Some reviewers say it's even BETTER than Olaplex, which is over three times the price! Long-lasting Peripera Ink Velvet Lip Tint, worth the try if you like a little color on your lips but can't be bothered with lipsticks that constantly need touch-ups. This'll give your pout a smooth, ultra-pigmented stain with a silky finish, *and* it also has a lightweight feel that's not sticky or clumpy! E.l.f.

Infused with squalane for hydration, Poreless Putty Primer has a mattifying effect that doesn't look dry — plus, it's small enough to take on the go in case you need touch-ups.

Essence's Lash Princess mascara beloved for its ability to give you bold, dramatic lashes while also separating them to prevent clumping — and for its $5 price tag.

A trio of hydrating lip sleeping masks if you've been hesitant to pull the trigger on that $24 Laneige lip mask that's *everywhere* these days — getting three flavors for under $10 feels like a great alternative if you ask me. Just smear some on your dry, cracked lips before bed and dream of the smooth, soft lips you'll have come morning.

Not only will it make your eyeshadow look bolder and extra pigmented, but it'll also combat oil and creasing so your smoky eye looks flawless all night long. Mac Paint Pot, it was nice knowin' ya. Physicians Formula Diamond Dust translucent powder for brushing some shimmer onto your cheeks, eyes, lips, and elsewhere for a glassy skin effect.

When it comes to precision and hold, this stuff is *chef's kiss*. CeraVe's Retinol Serum in case you've been wanting to add a retinoid to your routine but have been scared off by potential flaking and redness — or the price tag of other brands, like Murad's $92 retinol serum.

A bottle of Nyx matte setting spray so your carefully crafted makeup look can survive up to 16 hours of wear, through humidity, sweat, rain, and snow, without any smudging or melting. Reviewers have put it to the test and say it's a cheaper swap for Mac and Urban Decay's setting sprays. A 12-pack of soft microfiber makeup removing towels, a true hack for budget-savvy makeup wearers, since they can gently remove makeup using only water and be reused over and over! Perfect for travel and everyday use, they'll cost you just over $1 per cloth, which amounts to nearly 20 times cheaper than the infamous Makeup Eraser. Or Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water in case it's time for you to replace your beloved bottle of Bioderma. This has the same gentle but powerful makeup-removing abilities, lifting away even waterproof makeup along with dirt and excess oil (without totally stripping your skin of moisture).

Dark, puffy under-eye circles and redness are no match for it — and neither are the name-brand concealers, at this price. L'Oreal's illuminating Lumi Glotion if you're going for a dewy, no-makeup makeup look — this works beautifully as a lightweight foundation alternative or for adding a little glow on top of your makeup! And at under $15, it's a reviewer-fave swap for pricier options like Glossier Futuredew and Drunk Elephant's D-Bronzi Drops. Eve Hansen Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum reviewers compare to the coveted TNS Recovery Complex serum that's — prepare yourself — over $200 for a 1-ounce bottle. This budget-friendly alternative offers similar benefits: It deeply hydrates, reduces under-eye puffiness and dark circles, smooths fine lines, boosts overall hydration, and creates a radiant glow that's giving, "I just got a facial." Eva Naturals' vitamin C serum, which deserves a spot in your bag because it's basically a skincare superhero with powerful ingredients like retinol, hyaluronic acid, niacinimide, and salicylic acid all rolled into one.

The Benefits Of Rice Water For Hair Growth And How To Use It
Your TikTok FYP is likely brimming with Rapunzel-esque women misting their hair with a milky white liquid. The miracle elixir in question? Rice water. Amid the hair care must-haves showcased online – like scalp oils and even scalp scrubs – rice water has emerged as one of the frontrunners, with even celebrity brands launching rice water-infused hair masks, sprays, and treatments. FIND OUT MORE ON ELLE COLLECTIVE While today's influencers have only recently discovered rice water, they're arriving late to the party. 'You may have seen one of the latest #hairtok trends on TikTok touting the strengthening benefits of rice water,' says Madison Thurman, research and development manager at Not Your Mother's. 'But the use of rice within personal care dates back to ancient times in Japan.' Renowned for their glossy, healthy hair, Japanese women traditionally collected the leftover water from rinsing rice to condition their locks. With such a simple yet effective ingredient, it's no surprise that modern hair care products are embracing this timeless remedy and helping bring it into the mainstream. In the spirit of anti-gatekeeping, we explored the science behind using rice water for hair growth and its ability to leave hair smooth and shiny. 'Rice water has been used for centuries in hair care as a natural treatment to promote healthy and strong hair,' says Betsy Jasper, founder and CEO of Oriza Hair. 'It is rich in minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants that nourish hair follicles, repair damage, and stimulate growth.' Packed with amino acids - the essential building blocks for supporting healthy hair growth - rice water acts like the perfect puzzle piece, stepping in to repair damage and enhance elasticity. Personally, I've struggled not with growing my hair, but with retaining its length. Years of harsh brushing and excessive heat styling left my hair unable to keep up. Then I discovered the holy grail that is rice water - and, even better, I realised I didn't have to spend hours fermenting it at home. With readily available, tested products, my hair became noticeably smoother, shinier, and far less prone to breakage. Below, with insights from Thurman, Jasper, and consultant dermatologist and hair expert Dr Sharon Wong, we've answered all your burning questions about rice water and curated a list of the best rice water hair growth products you can shop right now. Fermented rice water is rich in proteins, nutrients, and minerals that can make your locks longer, stronger, and shinier than ever. 'Rice water is a powerhouse ingredient that contains essential vitamins and nutrients vital for hair health,' explains Jasper. 'Vitamins B and E in rice water work to nourish and moisturise hair, providing a soft and smooth texture. Rice water's inositol and niacinamide can repair damaged hair from the inside out, leading to shinier and smoother hair. The amino acids found in rice water, such as cysteine and methionine, strengthen hair fibres, making them more resilient and less prone to hair breakage. These combined benefits make rice water a highly effective ingredient for achieving healthy and beautiful hair.' Proteins are an integral part of maintaining the strength and resilience of hair, and rice water contains various amino acids - the essential building blocks of protein - that help repair, strengthen, and nourish hair strands from root to tip. 'Proteins in hair care can be classified as film-formers. In essence, this means that they aid in restoring hair integrity and strength by forming a lightweight, permeable film on the cuticle of damaged hair,' Thurman tells us. 'Various proteins have different benefits, with rice protein providing exceptionally awesome results when it comes to shine and strength. Rice protein also contains several amino acids.' That said, it is worth caveating that scientific and clinical research behind the use of rice water in haircare is still in its infancy. According to consultant dermatologist and hair specialist Dr. Sharon Wong, there are currently no conclusive data or studies to support that rice water impacts the hair cycle to influence growth, density or as a hair loss treatment. However, anecdotal data is abound where people report an improvement in the condition of their hair fibres after trying rice water. 'More detailed and objective studies are required to validate and support these observations,' Dr Wong tells ELLE. While in-depth clinical research is still needed, Dr Wong notes that the components within rice water - the amino acids and starch - does have the potential to deliver hydration and strength. According to her, rice water also contains the carbohydrate inositol, which in one study, shows that it can penetrate and remain in the hair fibre after rinsing. This suggests that it's likely to imbue hair with hydration from the inside even post-washing. There are various ways to incorporate rice water into your hair routines. 'You can use rice water as a rinse after shampooing, as a leave-in treatment, or even mix it with other natural ingredients to create a hair mask,' says Jasper. 'However, if you're looking for a more convenient and efficient option, using hair products infused with rice water, such as Oriza, is an excellent way to get all the benefits and more into your hair care routine.' 'Rice water is obtained by soaking rice - yes, the kind from your pantry - in water for an extended period of time. As the rice soaks, the water turns a milky, off-white color and a chemical reaction known as fermentation takes place,' Thurman explains. 'As this process continues, various proteins, nutrients, and minerals are introduced to the water.' While you can absolutely ferment your own rice water at home, investing in ready-made products can often be a more convenient choice. Nowadays, an increasing number of brands are incorporating rice water into their hair care formulas, celebrated for its strengthening, conditioning, shine-enhancing properties. Whether in the form of a hair mask, serum, or conditioner, these products offer an easier way to enjoy the benefits of rice water. Rice water might be trending on your feed now, but this beauty secret has been used for personal care since ancient Japan. 'The tradition of using rice water in hair care originated in ancient Japan, where women would collect the water left over from rinsing rice and use it to wash and condition their hair,' says Jasper. 'The Yao women in Huangluo Village, China, are also known for their long and healthy hair, and they credit their hair's health to washing it with fermented rice water. Over time, this practice has been adopted in other parts of the world and is now becoming a popular ingredient in hair care products.' 'Anyone wanting to improve the health and appearance of their hair should consider implementing rice water into their hair care routine, as it is suitable for all hair types. Rice water's healing and nourishing properties make it especially beneficial for individuals experiencing hair loss, breakage, and slow hair growth,' says Jasper. One of the reasons why rice water is so beneficial for hair is because it's loaded with proteins. However, protein overload can occur due to overuse of protein treatments for hair. To avoid this, use rice water every other wash day, or use hair products that balance protein with moisture. 'The frequency of using rice water or products containing rice water depends on an individual's specific needs. People with dry, damaged, or brittle hair may benefit from using it more frequently, while others may find it sufficient to use it once a week,' Jasper tells us. 'With regular use, rice water can improve texture, reduce breakage, and promote healthy hair growth. It's important to listen to your hair and adjust your routine accordingly to achieve the best results.' 'Rice water is a natural and gentle ingredient that's unlikely to cause any adverse effects,' says Jasper. 'So, if you find that your hair responds well to rice water, there's no reason why you can't incorporate it into your hair care routine.' She adds: 'However, as with any new product or ingredient, it's always a good idea to do a patch test first to ensure you don't experience any irritation or sensitivity' As a leading publisher of fashion, lifestyle, and beauty content, ELLE is committed to highlighting the best products in various categories by personally testing the latest and most innovative products, interviewing countless experts, and vetting customer-loved items.

Marian M. Hogan, retired elementary school teacher, dies
Marian M. Hogan, a retired elementary school teacher and Scrabble player, died of sepsis May 23 at Sarasota Memorial Hospital. She was 97 and had lived at Jacaranda Trace in Venice, Florida, after moving from North Homeland. Born in Baltimore and raised on Wildwood Parkway and in Charles Village, she was the daughter of Marian L. Mulvey and M. Bernard Mulvey, who was born in County Waterford, Ireland. Her father was a salesman in the cement industry. 'My mother was very proud of her Irish heritage and loved that her daughter also became an Irish citizen,' said her daughter, Marian Nash. She attended St. Bernardine School, graduated from Seton High School in 1945, and played violin in the school orchestra. She earned a degree from Notre Dame of Maryland University and taught at Curtis Bay Elementary School. She met her future husband, Dr. John F. Hogan Jr., through his father, who was also a physician and director of communicable diseases for Baltimore City during the 1918 pandemic, and an aunt, Agnes Mulvey. The couple married at SS. Philip and James Church and honeymooned in Bermuda. Harry Belafonte heard of the newlyweds and sang at their table. She and her husband spent two years in Saseo, Japan, while her husband was in military service. 'My mother learned much about Asian culture, including how to make kimono-clad Japanese dolls,' her daughter, Marian, said. She and her husband settled on Meadowood Road. She was a voracious reader and patronized the Govans and Roland Park Enoch Pratt Free libraries. She played Scrabble with friends and sought other skilled players as competitors. She kept dictionaries and thesauruses at her bedside. 'She was a wordsmith,' said her son-in-law, Brian J. Nash. 'She could bend the rules of language in a way that would later become acceptable.' Neil William Curran, former Baltimore city planner and organic farmer, dies Terral M. Jordan, T. Rowe Price venture capitalist, dies Todd Liddell Parchman, investment banker, dies Jim Henneman, Baltimore sportswriter and former Orioles scorekeeper, dies James Albert Zitzer Sr., electrical designer, dies 'My mother was a quick thinker who could deliver a witty remark or kind exchange with equal aplomb,' her daughter said. 'She took pride in writing notes to those who were kind to her. She liked good stationery. When I traveled, I always brought her back a box of the best letter papers I could find.' 'Her candied sweet potatoes were legendary,' said her daughter. 'She made a standing rib roast that was special. She set a beautiful table.' She enjoyed swimming at the Meadowbrook pool in Mount Washington and at Gibson Island, where she was a member of the island club. Survivors include her daughter, Marian Nash, of Venice; two sons, R. Kevin Hogan, of Philadelphia, and John F. Hogan III, of Baltimore; a sister, Bernadette Johnston, of Venice; and seven grandchildren. Her husband died in 1974. A life celebration will be held Aug. 7 at the Gibson Island Club. Have a news tip? Contact Jacques Kelly at and 410-332-6570.
