Lips shouldn’t be overlooked when it comes to sunscreen. Here you can see our favorites for lip care with sun protection, SPF, which protect and care for your lips and keep them healthy and young in the long run
That lip balm and SPF balm is a must-have is evident from the many sunscreen products that are recommended to us for year-round personal care. “Lips, unlike other parts of the skin, don’t have the ability to create a protective tan, so they’re prone to burns,” explains dermatologist Dr. Dennis Gross, adding that oily balms and glosses attract more sunlight to the skin and actually increase the effects of radiation. Over time, sun exposure can cause volume loss, discoloration, fine lines, or worse. “Skin cancer on the lower lip is especially dangerous because it can spread from inside the chest through lymph vessels,” says Dr. Grosso and recommends conscious sun protection of the lips and appropriate protective lip care.
The best lip care with sun protection in the 2023 test
To protect the mouth from radiation, there are lip care sticks with different SPF (sun protection factor) or with SPF (English, sun protection factor). Even lipsticks with SPF 50+ now have a light texture, no chalky-white residue and no unpleasant taste when worn. TIP: As with facial care, the care sticks and balms can be applied over lip make-up as a protective cover or give it a summery glow or create exciting color mixes.
