Just like ordinary lip balms, tinted balms also include an array of nourishing elements like vitamin E, jojoba oil, and almond oil. A lip balm with SPF 15 or more provides protection against sun damage. Sun damage is the main cause of cracked and chapped lips, since the lips dehydrate and lose all their moisture. These balms not only hydrate chapped lips, but also keep them soft and supple for a long time.
