Betches Love This: A Ranking Of The Internet’s Favorite Emotional Support Lip Balms
My mom wasn’t an almond mom…no, she didn’t really care what kind of milk I was drinking and let me have Fruit Loops whenever I craved them but she was the kind of mom who kissed me goodbye and would, without fail, say, “Don’t you think you could use a little color on your lips?” or “Don’t forget gloss!!” So, as I got older, if you ever asked me what I bring to the table the answer has always been (and always will be) three lipsticks, two glosses, and at least one balm.
The funny thing about the internet, though, is the fact that I immediately realized that I’ve never had a unique experience in my life considering my FYP consistently validates the comfort of having five different viral lip treatments on hand at a time. Why have one when you can have all the best lip gloss and balm the internet has to offer!?!
So, what I’m really here to do is cut through the bullshit and give it to you straight…which TikTok famous lip balms and glosses are actually worth keeping around.

eos Lip Balm
$4.47
9. OG Lip Smackers
Like a therapist that wears too much perfume, she’ll heal your inner child but sooner or later her fragrance will give you the ick.
Lip Smacker Party Pack Collection
$8.77
8. Dior Lip Oil
She’s giving “I have a trust fund and summer in the Hamptons” but that price tag in this economy?!? You could just buy a great dupe for a fraction of the cost (oops).
Dior Lip Glow Oil
$40
7. Lancôme Juicy Tubes
She’s was your BFF when Limited Too was still your weekend hangout spot and sometimes friendships fade…Nothing bad happened per se but, you know the old saying, if you love them let them go.
Lancôme Juicy Tubes Original Lip Gloss
$25
6. Topicals Slick Salve Glossy Lip Balm
Yeah, she’s amazing and all but, she has commitment issues. And by commitment issues, I mean it’s literally impossible to purchase because it’s never in stock. *le sigh*
Topicals Slick Salve Glossy Lip Balm
$16
5. Glossier Balm Dotcom
Coming in at 5th is the girl boss that’s been around since the mid 2010s. She was iconic when she launched but, just like your yoga instructor, she isn’t the same since she went vegan (IYKYK).
Glossier Balm Dotcom Lip Balm and Skin Salve
$14
4. Aquaphor
She’s an icon, a legend, and honestly shouldn’t be messed with. 10/10 on efficacy, I just wish she were cuter.

3. Laneige Lip Mask
You’ve been dying to hang out since she went viral on TikTok that one time and for good reason. She’s dependable, there for you day and night, and always makes you look incredible (AKA the ultimate hype girl). Watch out though, when you’ve been around her for a while she tends to get under your skin nails (this is why refillable tubes were made!!!).
LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask
$24
$19.20
2. Rhode Peptide Lip Tint
Just like the Kardashians, you love to hate her. Or…maybe hate to love her? Either way, she’s in the rotation more often than you’d like to admit because she’s just that girl and always ahead of the trends.
Rhode Peptide Lip Tint
$16
1. Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm
We love a girl who can do both, and by both I mean be practical and stylish at👏the👏same👏time. Although she tests your patience because she’s never in stores, you forgive her because she’s worth waiting for.
