"Many cancers begin in the lip area, making adequate protection not only a luxury, but also a mandatory step. I've created this balm to offer superior protection to the delicate lip area which is susceptible to sun damage, windburn, air pollution and other harmful environmental elements." - Dr. Dennis Gross
The MD Skincare Powerful Sun Protection SPF 25 Lip Balm offers superior protection to the delicate lip area, which can be susceptible to harmful environmental elements. This multi-functional product protects, moisturizes, prevents aging and promotes collagen. Many cancers begin in the lip area, making adequate protection not only a luxury, but also a mandatory step in any skincare regimen.
Powerful Sun Protection SPF 25 Lip Balm protects against the sun's harmful UVA/UVB rays and is the only lip balm that contains an Iron-encapsulating Chelator. This Chelator removes Iron residue left on the skin by tap water and perspiration, which helps in skin cancer prevention and promotes healthy skin. Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter provide immediate moisture while humectants infuse the lips with water vapor from the atmosphere for long-term moisturizing. This clear, luxurious balm is infused with active ingredients such as Blueberry Fruit Extract, Lycopenes and Pomegranate to firm and promote healthy, soft and supple lips. The refreshing vanilla-mint flavor makes for pleasurable application.
Benefits:
- Provides sunscreen protection against harmful UVA/UVB rays.
- Contains an Iron-encapsulating Chelator that provides additional protection against photo-aging which may occur during sun exposure.
- Repairs and heals chapped lips with Aloe.
- Infuses the lip area with powerful Antioxidants.
- Provides immediate and long-term moisture to lips.
- Natural, petrolatum-free formula.
Directions For Use:
Apply to clean, dry lips evenly, 30 minutes prior to sun exposure and again throughout the day as needed. Reapply after prolonged sun exposure, drinking and/or eating.

I like this product. The ingredients look good and it's nice to have SPF on my lips (an area of my face I often forget). My only issue is the price. Eighteen seems a bit steep for a lip balm, so I leave this one in my medicine cabinet and only use it in the morning after I finish my skincare regimen. The rest of the time I use Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm (Lemon & Chamomile), also SPF 25 which I can apply throughout the day. It is only eight dollars and it seems to stay on a bit longer -- though MD's product is silkier.

I did not love this product. I have not been able to tell if it provides adequate sun protection however it is so light in texture that it seems to disapear almost instantly from my lips. It also seems to have a drying effect on my lips. I may continue to use it as a suncreen, but only on top of some other lip conditioner that provides the lasting moisture I need.

This product made my lips very sore, especially around the corners. It feels nice and rich, but a few hours later, your lips feel dried out and sore. I wouldn't recommend this product.
