Extra-hydrating lip balms from Revision Skincare , Laneige and Jack Black

If youre a person of a certain age, you likely have a stash of your favorite anti-aging products in your beauty arsenal. Hydrating eye cream, retinol serums, collagen night creams youre familiar. But one area you may be overlooking is your lips.

Lips become thinner as we get older , but certain lip balms are designed to keep the signs of aging at bay. Some are even formulated to reduce fine lines, keeping lips smooth.

If youve never shopped for a lip balm to use in this way before, you could probably use a little help figuring out which one is best for you. No need to fret (that will just cause wrinkles).

Rounded up here are some popular options on Amazon to consider.

A colorless lip balm that plumps lips while you sleep

Youll notice a difference in how hydrated and plump your lips look just one night after applying this Revision Skincare lip balm at least, one former HuffPost editor did . While it does have a slight sheen to it, this lip balm is colorless. The key ingredients are hyaluronic acid (which helps lips retain moisture) and THD ascorbate (a powerful antioxidant).

Promising review: When I say I cannot live without this, it is an understatement. It will not move all day and all night, even after eating and drinking. I get so many questions and compliments on how my lips look so glossy. My lips used to crack and peel because they were so dry and ever since using this I have not had a problem. Worth every penny! Amanda J

A lip balm with shea butter and SPF

Ask any dermatologist whats most important for preserving skin and theyll answer with three letters: SPF. If youre forgetting to apply SPF to your lips, that stops now. This Jack Black lip balm has SPF 25, plus shea butter, which keeps lips moisturized and smooth.

Promising review: This is my second time buying this. It took me about a year to get through a tube. I put it on at night to wear to bed. I like it because it is thick and seems to keep my lips healthy. I also like it because its no-nonsense. No smells or flavors. It has shea butter and SPF (not that I really need that at night). They have scented ones, but for me this one is the best. PJ

A lip mask with vitamin C

Made to be applied before bedtime, this lip mask by Laneige is made with antioxidant-rich berry fruit complex, shea butter and murumuru seed extract, which is super moisturizing. The combo works to keep lips soft and smooth no cracked lines here!

Promising review: I have been using this lip sleeping mask for years. I try to incorporate some other ones to see if I can find a second option, but I always come back to this product. As soon as I stop using this product, my lips feel and look different. I always wake up with super hydrated and plump lips. It stays on all night and I dont have a problem with transferring the product some other places. I love this product. Highly recommend. MMartinez

4
A vitamin E-rich cream that reduces fine lines

For less than $10, this anti-aging lip balm from Burts Bees is a steal. People are obsessed with it: More than 15,000 people have bought and rated it on Amazon, giving it a collective rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars. Made with vitamin E, it helps lips maintain their natural moisture barrier, keeping them smooth with no cracked lines.

Promising review: The first night I got this I immediately applied it. The next day my lips weren't chapped! I was so happy. Every time I wake up, my lips are always chapped and now with this theyre not! If I'm being honest, this is probably my favorite buy from Amazon. Highly recommend. Maya

5
A lip balm made with coconut oil and shea butter that smells like peaches

The moisturizing powers of both coconut oil and shea butter are well-known. This Yuglow lip balm combines them so you can benefit from both, as well as beeswax and jojoba oil, which also help lock in moisture. It has a nice, peachy smell too.

Promising review: I have and always will be gatekeeping this. I know it says to wear it at night, but I wear it when I go out as well. I used to have very dry lips but after using this daily, my lips are like clouds. Funky monkey

6
A lip-balm packed with collagen

A basic building block for skin, collagen is key for keeping skin looking youthful and this balm is packed with it. Made with three types of collagen, it fills in lip lines and naturally plumps lips. Bonus: You can use it around your eyes too.

Promising review: This is a lovely little product. It is a small container, but truly a little does go a long way so the container should last you a while. After the first application I already saw a subtle difference in plumpness and linesand every time I use the product. The scent is absolutely light and lovely. Beautiful shine. And when you apply it it feels so good and smooth. I do really enjoy using this product. Well see at the end of the little tub if the benefits are enough to purchase again as it is a little pricey. But its a lovely little product that I will definitely enjoy till the end. MzB

These collagen lip masks

Another collagen-rich product to consider is this pack of lip masks . Wear it for 20 minutes and, when done regularly, youll notice fine lines on your lips disappear. More than 900 people have bought these lip masks just this month.

Promising review: This product is a miracle for dry lips. You will notice the difference the first time you use it. Its amazing what using a product for 20 minutes for three to five days can do for your lips. Senija Mehmedovic

A pink lip balm loaded with antioxidants
A lot of anti-aging lip balms are colorless, but this one by IT Cosmetics comes in three different shades of pink. Besides adding a little color, it hydrates lips thanks to its antioxidant-rich ingredients, like sweet cherry seed oil and safflower seed oil.

Promising review: My lips are already dry, chapped and peeling. Most chapsticks just sit on top of the lips and I still peel every day. This is one of the few lip conditioning products that actually works! My lips feel hydrated and smooth for hours. Its not sticky or thick at all. The color is more like a tint. Dont expect it to be a long-lasting saturated color. Kaitlyn

This glossy balm in different hues that doubles as an overnight lip mask

This is another product that gives lips a hint of color while it works to nourish them. Made by Julep , there are 10 different colors to choose from (including a plain gloss, if you dont want any color at all) and the balms are made with shea butter and antioxidant-rich songyi mushroom extract peptides. Wear it during the day or at night, while you sleep. More than 400 people have purchased this lip balm just this month.

Promising review: I wear this every night at bedtime and I love it. My lips are more moist and seem fuller after using for a month. Get it! Tiffany S

A lip balm that increases collagen production in three days

Yes, this anti-aging lip balm from U Beauty is a bit pricier than the others, but its formulated to boost collagen production in lips after just three days of consistent use. Its made with hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid, collagen peptides and vitamin E to both plump and soften lips. Choose from between 10 different tints.

Promising review: I have invested in so many lip products that are meant to improve your lips. Prior to U Beauty, I have stayed with only Revision's Lip Replenisher as my go-to. While very good, it cannot compare to The Plasma lip compound. I have serious sun damage at 70+ years, including deep-set wrinkles and oft-chapped lips. I work outdoors as well.

It could be that the salicylic acid is the hero ingredient for me because little bumps around my lips are disappearing. I find this very moisturizing in a good, not slimy, way. I have never dared to exfoliate chemically, only with gritty compounds. I think doing it safely this way is yielding very dramatic results for me. I pay attention to applying it all around my lips as well as on them directly. It is expensive and possibly overkill for those with really good lips already, but for those of us who need help, it is definitely worth the price. I am so smitten with this product that I intend to try a few more things they offer including the Plasma in Rose. BJR

This age-repair lip treatment thats 100% vegan

Grown Alchemist has cultivated a loyal following for their 100% plant-based products that really work. This lip repair balm is made with tri-peptides (for plumping), African butter tree extract (for moisturizing) and violet leaf extract, which is high in antioxidants.


Promising review: This is by far the BEST lip balm I have ever used. I've tried so many over the years and this one is like putting silk over your lips. I have ordered this several times now and love it so much. Would highly recommend! Just wish the price was lower! TJC

12
This lip oil full of vitamins

Made with essential oils and vitamins, this lip oil from Hourglass goes on clear and can be worn during the day or at night while you sleep. The ingredients are formulated to both moisturize lips as well as reduce the appearance of lip wrinkles.

Promising review: Works as an exfoliating agent and makes my lips softer, smoother looking and naturally pinker (youthful). I will be purchasing again! Kristi Jones

13
A lip duo for double the benefits

Snag yourself both a lip balm and a lip mask for $24 . Made by Kaplan MD, both products are meant to nourish lips and keep them looking young. The balm is made with SPF 30 and the mask has two types of hyaluronic acid and 22 organic plant extracts.

Promising review: I was skeptical at first, but this made my lips feel so soft. I loved the lip balm that came with it and will definitely order more. Amanda

14
These gold collagen lip masks

You probably have a favorite face mask. Now, get ready to have a favorite lip mask . These are made with collagen and aloe vera, meant to help plump lips up. Each pack contains five masks.

Promising review: These little beauties really do the job! Theyre comfortable to have on and makes the fine lines and wrinkles around your mouth less visible so you do get that lip plumping look but not to extreme, very natural. Your lips and surrounding skin feels like silk. The longer you can wear, the better the outcome. Very impressed and will order again! Karen Bower
