TOP 10 Lip Balms 🇺🇲

Winter has officially settled in—and your lips feel it first. 

Cold temperatures and dry air can quickly leave them tight, flaky, and uncomfortable. A good lip balm doesn’t just add shine: it helps repair, protect, and maintain hydration all winter long.

But ingredient quality really matters, especially for lip products. Some balms still rely on mineral oils, problematic preservatives, or controversial dyes. And because lip balm is applied so often, it’s worth remembering that you may be ingesting more of it than you think.

To make things easier, we’ve rounded up lip balms rated 100/100 on Yuka, so you can keep your lips soft and your routine worry-free.

      Indeed. Something thick like that is more of a barrier product too, rather than a moisturizer. Don’t get me wrong, I have used products with petroleum when I have had severe skin inflammations that I couldn’t address with more natural products or even find natural products to use.

    Osmia lip doctor is 100/100 on the APP. Love this product! I had oral perioral dermatitis and this was the only product that did not hurt my lips.

    I don’t see any authentic and scientific reasons for only of these few lip balms while there are a lot good brands available. This site looks like a promotional platform for paid items and it makes profit for it and nothing else.

      If you go on their app they show the ingredients and which ones would make a product get a high or low score. The app has a free version I used for awhile but upgraded to the paid version. It’s a European app

      Vaseline products are of petroleum and honestly I wouldn’t touch let alone use on my lips or anywhere on my body.

      Reply
      1. Jack

        Vaseline is 100 percent USP pharmaceutical-grade petrolatum.

        That means:
        -Highly refined
        -PAH-free
        -Non-reactive
        -Non-penetrating
        -Non-sensitizing

        It is used medically on:
        -newborns
        -burn wounds
        -surgical incisions
        -eczema and compromised skin

        If it were unsafe for lips or skin, it would not survive in clinical use.

        Time to update your knowledge

    Isn’t Aquaphor made out of petroleum and mineral oil? I’m wondering how that is a 10 out of 10. I stopped using it for that exact reason.

        The lip one is actually made without petroleum I believe. Which just proves the point that they know it’s bad to digest (and in that case it would be bad to absorb it into your skin at all but they get away with that).

      2. James

        I, too thought Aquaphor used petroleum.

    2. Jack

      It’s safe. Cosmetic and pharmaceutical-grade petrolatum and mineral oil are highly refined, inert, and not absorbed by the body, even with the tiny amounts you might ingest from lip products. Avoiding them is a personal preference, not a safety requirement.

    I wear lip balm only when my lips are dry…because I’ve noticed that many of my friends seem to be balm addicts, constantly re-applying (I don’t think they even know they’re doing it, at this point). Because I don’t “over-pamper,” my lips are almost never dry (granted, I live in Miami…but still).

      I can’t speak with scientific knowledge, but my best friend uses copious amounts of Carmex and never uses anything else. She uses it several times an hour. Kind of weird, IMO, but she has done this for years, so maybe there is something to that.

        If she uses it several times per hour, perhaps it isn’t working very well and her lips are constantly drying out. Is this the intent, to get them to use it up quickly to buy more?
