Where Lipstick and Lip Balm Meet

Winter air tends to leave lips chapped and dehydrated—not a good look. You shouldn’t have to give up the rich, vibrant lip colors you love simply because of cold temps and dry heat. Fortunately, some of our favorite beauty lines have created solutions so this season you can brandish a balmier, more moisturizing lipstick and enjoy rich color payoff that also hydrates. Read on for our top picks.
