7. Use lip balms that have SPF protection.
Using lip balm with SPF 30 or higher is crucial year-round to protect lips from sun damage. Look for balms containing titanium oxide or zinc oxide for broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection. Reapply lip SPF every 2 hours when outdoors for extended periods, even in winter. The sun’s rays can harm unprotected lips in any season. Make SPF lip care a daily habit to keep your lips smooth and healthy.
