The Best Tinted Lip Balms Under $10

Some tingle, some shine, and some shimmer—but one thing all tinted lip balms should do is hydrate. Luckily, we found a dozen with totally cheap price tags in spot-on shapes.

As the name suggests, this balm glides on with a creamy, buttery texture. And even though tangerine is usually a summer shade, this sheer, zingy coral has pink undertones that make it flattering for any season (and on any skin tone).

You don't exactly have to be a professional makeup artist to neatly swipe on lip balm. Still, the oval shape of this tube makes it extra easy to swivel on the sexy cappuccino color. It's also got SPF 20, making it especially perfect for days you're hitting the slopes.

This may look like Barbie's first tinted lip balm, but on your lips, the color is much more subdued—just a sheer pink with the prettiest sheen. Plus, it has shea and mango butters for all-day moisture.

This gloss-balm hybrid delivers major moisture, shimmer, and shine without rubber-cement stickiness. The slant-tip applicator neatly deposits subtle gold flecks that are so small, you don't notice them once they're on, but they create a mirror-like effect, making lips look fuller.

This balm has the brand's famous beeswax for hydration, plus shea butter and plant oils for a slicker texture. And the reddish-plum hue stains lips with just enough sheer berry color to make them look flushed and healthy.
