Hi,
I'm currently using Ombrelle's lip sunblock (contains mexoryl), but it leaves a pasty, white cast on my lips. Can anyone recommend an effective lip sunblock that does NOT leave a white residue?
Thanks,
Katie |

I like Ceralip by La Roche Posay. I believe it has an SPF of 50. It has a nice taste to it, and does not leave too much
of a residue. |

I'm not sure the Chapstick brands have proper UVA/UVB protection. I'm looking for something with good UVA protection, but leaves little to no white residue.
Thanks,
Katie |

Do you think it's safe (and effective) to apply regular facial sunblock to the lips?
Thanks,

Hi, Katie!
You know, I've oftened wondered about this, too. I know I usually pat a bit onto my lips when i apply my sublock, but I am unsure of whether or not there are any safety concerns. Doesn't Neutrogena make a lip treatment that blocked UVA/UVB rays? I can't remember. Sorry I couldn't be of any help!  |

| La Roche Posay makes 2 lip products; I bought the lip cream. I probably render it inactive though, by putting gloss on top. |

| FYI - MAC Tinted Lip Conditioners contain SPF15 and leave no whitish cast around lips. |

I use Blistex Pro-Care. It has an SPF30, and smells like a fruity summer drink (pineapple & coconut, I think).
It's cheap too!!

I have figured there MUST be a better sun-protecting lip balm/gloss than what I've been using. I like Neutrogena Moistureshine lip soothers (the glossy one) but its ingredients aren't the kind of protection I am looking for. It uses Octinoxate (7.5%), Oxybenzone (2%), which, if I understand correctly doesn't provide UVA protection.
I came across "Lancome Soleil DNA Guard Protective Lip Gloss spf 15" the other day that has Mexoryl XL in it, but I can't find any reviews for it, positive or negative. I want to give it a try, but it's kind of expensive (around $20 on ebay), plus shipping. Anyone else heard of it? |
