However, it's something that you'll find at the bottom of practically every woman's purse for good reason: With all the stuff we put on our lips, lip balm is a moisturizing must that preps the pout for a smooth, even application of lip color.

Luckily, lip balm has come a long way from good ol' Vaseline. From lip balms that impart gorgeous berry colors to those that offer a whopping SPF 35, there's no shortage when it comes to the variety of lip balms available. So to help you discover the crème de la crème, we compiled reviews on the best lip balms sure to soothe dry lips. With this list in hand, you'll know exactly which lip balms have the potential to be your new favorites.
