A good tint balm includes ingredients that heal small cracks, eliminate flaking and have a disinfecting effect. No wonder this lipstick is considered medicinal. The product restores the skin and gives the lips a certain shade, although it is not a lipstick in the full sense of the word.

Types of tint balms

Depending on the composition, balms have a purpose and form of release:

  1. hygienic in stick – include care components. There are nourishing, moisturizing lipsticks, antiherpetic lipsticks, and balm lipsticks. The latter includes a large amount of oils - babassu, sesame, and prevents cracking and dryness of the skin. The form of implementation is a stick, it is considered convenient: the product is easy to carry;
  2. moisturizer in a jar – contains wheat germ, shea, jojoba, coconut, almond oils and always wax. This ingredient forms a film on the lips that prevents moisture loss. The product is offered in a jar; it is more convenient to use at home. Apply hygienic or colored balms with a brush or fingers;
  3. light shine balm – cares for lips, adds shine and sensuality. Available in soft plastic tubes with a screw cap. The latter is equipped with an applicator for applying the product. The tint balm does not cover the natural color, but only complements and adds shine;

By lightly pressing on the bottom of the case, the product saturates the sponge exactly enough to apply to the lips. This option is as convenient as a lipstick stick, but also economical.

  2. In some cases, the cost of the product is noticeable, especially if it combines several functions.

Rating of the best balms/hygienic lipsticks

Hygienic compositions are produced by a huge number of cosmetic companies. The best of them combine high efficiency and affordable cost:

Erborian Dudong Revitalizing Lip Balm

The product is offered in a miniature glass jar with a volume of only 7 ml. The container is tightly screwed on with a lid, so there is no need to worry about leakage. Despite its unusual shape, you can take it with you to work. Apply to lips using a brush or fingers.

The composition contains mineral and vegetable oils, sulfur crystals, wax. These ingredients retain moisture in the skin and give lips more volume. Lavender extract has a calming effect, so Erborian is used for inflammation. The high cost is worth it, according to users.

Essence glow tinted lip balm

The product combines the properties of balm and tint. It cares for the skin, moisturizing it, but at the same time performs a decorative function - it gives a glossy shine. This state is maintained for 2 hours. Then the gloss “fades”, and the product turns into a matte tint, giving the effect of “kissed lips”. It stays on for another 4-5 hours.

The consumer is offered 3 different shades. But that's not all: the combination of balm and tint provides another interesting property: depending on the lighting, the gloss on the lips changes color.

The composition is available in a simple but convenient bottle with a sponge-shaped applicator. It is applied literally in one touch and does not create stickiness. The smell is strong - cherry candy. The tint costs only 60 rubles.

Oriflame Very Me Colored Lip Balm “Confetti”

The intensely moisturizing composition simultaneously provides a beautiful shade and bright shine. Oriflame offers 4 colors: Sunny Citron with a strong golden sheen, Mint Pink with a subtle tint, Juicy Grapefruit with a peachy tint, and Berry Punch with a rosy red tint.

Contains castor oil and lanolin to moisturize lips and protect against moisture loss. Microcrystalline sulfur and other additives provide a shimmering shine.

Available in stick form, easy to use. The circular enveloping structure visually makes the lips appear fuller. At the same time, the effect of softness and tenderness is preserved. And consumers consider the smell of lipsticks that increase lip volume to be intrusive: all 4 lipsticks have a strong “chemical” aroma.

Rouge Bunny Rouge Enchanting Blooms Tinted Luxe Balm (scarlet, peach shades)

A whole line of tint balms of different colors. For fans of a natural lip shade, a shining translucent gloss is offered; for the evening it is better to choose a translucent scarlet, and during the day a warm peach color looks interesting. The product is offered in the form of a stick and is economical.

Enchanting Blooms includes an active complex based on sunflower oil that intensely moisturizes and nourishes the skin. The shine is due to the presence of waxes and color pigments. This is not just a hygienic lipstick with a volume effect: the product has an anti-aging effect and restores the natural volume of the lips.

The texture is light, melting, and does not create any heaviness or stickiness. Despite this, the balm lasts for at least 4–5 hours. The weight of lipstick in one stick is 3.5 g, it costs from 1740 to 2300 rubles. Find out about luxury moisturizing lipsticks here.

Avon Color Trend “Juicy Color”

Balm in tubes with a white cap. It's a stick, so there's no applicator. The company offers as many as 6 shades for every taste: vanilla, pink, bright scarlet, rich chocolate. The product provides a delicate transparent shade and expressive shine. However, it does not have moisturizing or nourishing properties: the composition includes castor oil as a component that can care for the skin.

The main problem is the structure of the stick. The balm is difficult to apply and seems greasy. It melts at room temperature and then its heterogeneous structure becomes a problem: even with the slightest pressure, the balm crumbles and breaks along the “seam”. In addition, it stays on the lips for no more than 3 hours. The tube has a volume of 4.5 ml, which is enough for 2 months of use.

HengFang Color magic lipstick

An unusual solution that combines caring and decorative properties. In appearance, HengFang Color magic is no different from the usual hygiene product: a transparent stick with lipstick of a slightly greenish “caring” shade. The product really moisturizes the lips well and evens out the skin, but its effect does not end there.

The texture seems normal, but it melts on the lips - it heats up, and as it melts, the color develops in 15-20 seconds. The shade is intense: fair-skinned girls can use the balm as an evening lipstick. The shine is moderate, but saturates within a few minutes. The balm lasts for 4–5 hours. The feeling of moisture persists for the first 2–3 hours, but then disappears. Lipstick costs from 49 to 53 rubles.

Faberlic Hydracolor with volume effect

A real Faberlic caring balm that fully meets its purpose. The composition moisturizes the skin thanks to castor oil, shea butter, soy triglycerides and lanolin, and protects against moisture loss due to the inclusion of a synthetic polymer. The latter not only forms a protective film, but also prevents the balm from spreading.

Faberlic Hydracolor contains gelling oils and waxes, which provide a glossy, even shine. Lipstick with Volume Effect does not tighten lips and retains a slightly oily texture.

Consumers consider the lack of color expression to be a disadvantage of the Faberlic cosmetics line. The balm is offered in 3 shades and all 3 are literally transparent. The weight of the lipstick is 4.3 g, so it lasts for a long time.

Lip balm MAYBELLINE Baby Lips

The line includes 3 caring compositions and 3 decorative ones. The former moisturize the skin and eliminate flaking, giving the lips a glossy shine, but completely transparent. 3 decorative ones, with cherry, peach and passion fruit, provide shine and a beautiful soft shade. Peach lipstick also includes pearlescent particles and creates a shimmering shine.

The texture of the balm glides easily on the lips and does not leave a feeling of stickiness or tightness. The composition “works” for up to 4 hours. The product is produced in France, available at a price of 60–100 rubles. You can learn about various lip glosses in this material.

Relouis / Relui Sissy sponges

The Belarusian company offers 3 options for the product: with mother-of-pearl, with a glossy sheen and with a pink tint. They are made in the form of a stick and the composition resembles a typical caring balm. A distinctive feature is oil with wheat germ, which provides wound healing and anti-inflammatory effects.

The composition fits well on the lips, does not weigh down, one stroke is enough for application. Lipstick with a pink tint visually enlarges the lips, while a glossy one creates the effect of wet lips. The disadvantage is that in hot weather the stick melts and can break. The design of the tube is simple. More information about Belarusian cosmetics can be found here.

How to apply correctly

The method of application depends on the form of the product:

  1. The stick is used like a regular lipstick - swipe over the lips 1 or 2 times to create an even layer;
  2. Apply the balm from the jar with your fingers. You can use a brush;
  3. Most tube packages come with applicators for application. This option is more convenient if the structure of the product is liquid;
  4. Cushions are applied with a sponge, which is included in the bottle.

If you want to retain the aroma of your favorite perfume for as long as possible, before applying it to your wrist, lubricate the skin with hygienic lipstick. The smell will last longer.
