As the lines between makeup and skincare continue to blur, it’s not surprising that juicy lip balm and lip gloss hybrids are becoming increasingly popular. It’s no longer necessary to choose between an ultra-shiny finish and long-lasting hydration — you can have both. Here, we’re sharing the best gloss-balm hybrid products that provide both benefits exceptionally well.
NYX Professional Makeup Fat Oil Lip Drip
The NYX Professional Makeup Fat Oil Lip Drip is formulated with raspberry oil, cloudberry oil and vegan squalane to keep your lips hydrated for hours. It comes in eight shades, including juicy pinks, aberry-red, a brown pick and even a clear hue.
IT Cosmetics Confidence in a Serum Lip Gloss
Super silky and pigmented, this balm-gloss contains hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and ceramides to nourish your lips. It also contains peptides to provide a slight plump and comes in three shades: clear, a soft brown-pink and a berry-mauve.
Maybelline New York Lifter Gloss with Hyaluronic Acid
This lip-lifter gloss will keep your lips hydrated with hyaluronic acid and leave behind sheer pigment. We love that it comes in over a dozen shades, from glossy pink to copper.
YSL Beauty Rouge Volupté Candy Glaze Lip Gloss Stick

Shea butter, peptides, cupuaçu and babassu extracts come together in this rich glossy lip balm-gloss hybrid. It coats the lips in a shiny, thick layer that will keep your pout hydrated for hours.
Tower 28 ShineOn Lip Jelly

Vacation Inc Chardonnay Lip Oil
This SPF-packed lip oil leaves behind a clear, glossy finish that will instantly make your lips appear plumped and chap-free. The best part is you can wear it over lipstick to add high-shine dimension, or on its own for a shiny, hydrated finish.
