    "I love these Burt's Bees tinted lip balms so much. I've tried many tinted lip balms and these are my favorite by far."
    Top Pick: tinted lip balm
    ✓Yay
    "I have been talking about Burt's Bees tinted lip balm since I started this YouTube channel like gosh, 5 years ago now. But Red Dahlia will always be in my rotation because it's something I can just swipe on my lips. It costs like five bucks, so I have one in every purse and I just feel like it makes me look healthier even if I'm not wearing makeup."

    What the evidence says.

    Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

    Sunscreen filters

    Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.

    Vitamin E

    Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
