There are a bunch of great options depending on light conditions. For sunny days a darker lens in a gray or brown is your best bet but pretty much any tint will work well.
Now, on stormy days things get a little less clear (in more ways than one). Two very popular tints are rose and yellow. Yellow increases visual acuity (which is a fancy way of saying it makes things appear brighter) and rose is best at filtering blue light (blue light is what causes flat light) and thus offers the best contrast. I find, that if it is a darker stormy day or if I am riding more in the trees (where there is less light) then yellow works the best. If it is a brighter day or if I’m not riding in the trees too much then I much prefer rose lenses as they offer the best definition.
By far, the most common lens tint is amber. This is a decent universal tint as it combines red and yellow to create a lens dark enough for a sunny day but offers enough contrast and increased acuity to work well on a stormy day. I find that any "universal" type tint works okay in all conditions but not great in any one condition.
If you can only have one type than amber is a great choice. If you can have two, go for a darker lens for the sunny days and pick either a yellow or rose for those storming days. If money isn’t too big a deal Smith as an awesome lens available called the Sensor Mirror. This lens has a great combo of yellow and rose tints with a blue reflective coating that blocks the flat light. This is the best stormy day lens I have ever used.
EDIT: And if by protection you mean UV protection then you don’t really need to worry as every goggle made today offers complete UVA and UVB protection, no matter what the tint is.
It’s my first year snowboarding and I was going to buy some goggles. I don’t know what size or brand or anything about getting goggles. If it’s any conciliation, I’m 13, if that matters for size. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
What does being good have to do with wearing nice goggles fershizzle?. If you feel like buying cheap goggles cause you’re not good and risking them fogging up all the time go ahead.
However the smart person would suggest buying good goggles to avoid an annoying occurence such as that, take a look at.

As for lenses this is a basic description on which ones do what, usually your high end goggles come with an extra pair of lenses of a different color.
Black/Polarized: Great for sunny days. Cuts the glare without changing the color of things.
Green/Silver: Good for bright days, maybe with some passing clouds. Helps bring out the contrast. Good for seeing exactly where that ledge ends.
Yellow/Amber/Gold Lenses: Good for all around including low to medium light. Helps with seeing shadows.
Purple/Rose: Good for flat light or low light. Helps bring out the contours and shadows.
Clear Lenses: Good for night and flat light.
