Six of the best: lip balms with SPF

Spotted. Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows everywhere! Summer is officially just around the corner, and with the sun setting later, opaques getting fewer and beaches getting fuller, it’s time to start thinking protection – it’s never too early.
Now, we understand that the whole white-zinc-on-cricket-lads-lips isn’t really beach chic, so we’ve rounded up some lip loves that will have you ready for some summer lovin’ quick smart.
Hissyfit Lip Service Clear
“This is my new lip staple. I’m always on the hunt for something that looks glossy, yet protects my lips, and I’ve finally found it with Lip Service. Featuring really strong sun protection (SPF 30) and a gorgeous, glossy finish that is great to wear on nude lips or slick over your favourite red, this one’s definitely a keeper.” Rating: 5/5 – Sarah, bh Online Editor

Have never heard of this one. Do like the fact that it's SPF30 though. That's great.

I'd buy this based on the brand name alone. I love it!

Ooo, Sarah's new lip love! I'll be having a Hissyfit if I don't get to try one of these! Wonder if they'll release it in different colours?

I'm loving the SPF factor. Great!! And the fact that it reduces fine lines around the mouth, Even Better!!

A glossy gloss with SPF 30+ sounds like my kind of lip gloss. This also sounds nourishing with Shea butter and Jojoba oil.

Definitely looking into this one, I love the concept of a moisturising gloss with 30+

I like the idea that this has high SPF but not a fan of glossy lipbalms. This would end up being a real mess at the beach! Sand + glossy lips= disaster!!

I've just noticed Hissy fit stuff at myers, I might just have to go get this now! I have quite large lips which require extra special sun-attention during summer.

Sarah - any comments on whether this is water resistant at all? and what is the taste/smell like. Call me silly but the taste/smell factor is an important one for me in choosing lip balms and glosses :)

I would love to try this but $20 is pretty expensive for such a tiny tube!
