Juice Beauty SPF Tinted Lip Moisturizers

Juice Beauty is a Chemically Independent company specializing in organic skincare. They are easy to find in the natural section at Sephora, which means you can test out the products before you buy. Yay for Sephora!

Juice Beauty's SPF Tinted Lip Moisturizers is a 3-pack of mineral-tinted lip balm with SPF 8. My 3-pack contained one clear lip balm and 2 cool pinks. "Joyful" is a pale bubble gum pink with shimmer that very unfortunately looks like something from the 80s. Seriously, back in the frosted hair and acid-washed jeans days. "Playful" is a sheer mauve with shimmer. They all smell/taste terrible though IMHO...perhaps a combination of the SPF and the rest of the ingredients? I love the idea of having a tinted lip balm with SPF--it's perfect really. Sun protection, smooth lips, and a little color. But I think we can do better than this.

The Juice Beauty tinted Lip Trio's are my absolute favorite and the retro pink is spectacular. I love the taste and I love the colors and am so glad that they also came up with a clear version so I can use them under/over lipstick. I also give the clear to my son and husband. SO GLAD that I'm putting pure organic products on my lips where I'm ingesting so much. ALl three of these sell in a cute packet for just $15..a great gift for almost anyone! Glad that Juice Beauty is paraben free!

Thanks for your comment, Helly! I'm so glad you are using products that are healthy for your skin and don't contain any chemical nasties (i.e. chemically independent). Another tinted lip balm you might like is Alba Terra Tints and the best clear one with SPF is Jane Iredale Lip Drink (this one is my FAVE)--you can check out the full reviews and see what you think. Juice Beauty is great for your skin though, so if you like these that's great, stick with it!!!
Health & Love, Laurel
