Lip Balm Products

A common misconception is that the lips on a person's face do not need protection from the sun. This is untrue, and people definitely need protection for their lips against the sun. Lips can become sunburned and excessive exposure to the sun's rays has been linked to lip cancer. The best way to provide protection against the sun for our lips to apply a lip balm or lip gloss that contains sunscreen.

The primary purpose of lip balm is to provide an occlusive layer on the lip surface to seal moisture in lips and protect them from external exposure. Dry air, cold temperatures and wind all have a drying effect on skin by drawing moisture away from the body. Lips are particularly vulnerable because the skin is so thin, and thus they are often the first to present signs of dryness. Occlusive materials like waxes and petroleum jelly prevent moisture loss and maintain lip comfort while flavorants, colorants, sunscreens and various medicaments can provide additional, specific benefits.
