Whether you’re a believer in the ‘less-is-more’ philosophy or need a low-maintenance option for when you can’t touch up your look in between meetings or classes, lip balms and tints are the ultimate beauty must-have for when you’re on the go.

A light layer gives your lips a flattering pop of colour while also hydrating and nourishing them throughout the day. Plus, the fact that you can reapply this product without even needing to peek into your phone’s selfie camera is a major beauty bonus. Here are our top six picks that get an A+ from us—get ready to pucker up.

Innisfree

This balm is the perfect pick for all beauty minimalists - formulated with canola honey, it delivers a transparent, glossy finish while locking in moisture.

Renee

This multi-tasking formula provides rich colour, and its nourishing ingredients like almond oil and shea butter will help you kiss chronically chapped lips goodbye.

Colorbar

This balm doesn’t just deliver a "tint" of colour, but an actual smile, too – thanks to its unique Happy Colour Active Booster formula.

LANEIGE

This balm gives you that ultra-glossy look we all love, without any of the problems of your hair sticking to your lips.

MyGlamm

This vibrant shade may seem intimidating at first, but we promise you that the formula is sheer, buildable and lasts all day long.

Maybelline New York

This lightweight formula strikes the right balance between colour and hydration, and the SPF 20 lends your lips a layer of sun protection, too.
