Today I have three words for you people out there: Tinted Lip Balm.

Maybe it’s because I’m 35, maybe it’s because I’m practical, maybe it’s because I’m totally out of it, but right now I think this stuff is the shit. Sitting idly by in a natural food store near you, tubes of Terratint await your lips. Go. Now. Are you still reading? Go!

Once you try it, you will no longer be able to live without the emollient-color tint-SPF 18-peppermint-ness of it all. We all know that all of those lipsticks that advertise themselves as “moisturizing” are full of shit. You know it and I know it and every other woman who has a tube of (regular boring untinted) lip balm in her makeup bag knows it. Today I have summoned the courage to write about it in this public forum. Imagine only needing one tube of glamorous goodness to get you through your day, and which costs about three bucks. This is the stuff that Revlon just doesn’t want you to know.

Check it out. You’ll be glad you did.
