QV Protecting Lip Balm SPF30, 1 Piece

QV Protecting Lip Balm SPF30 addresses two lip care needs simultaneously - deep moisturization for dry and sensitive lips and UV protection for lip skin that is among the most UV-vulnerable skin on the body. Lip skin has no melanin and is very thin, making it highly susceptible to UV damage including actinic cheilitis and the cumulative UV exposure that contributes to lip skin aging. The QV fragrance-free, dermatologically developed formula makes it suitable for people who react to the fragrances and flavours in conventional lip balms.

Benefits

• SPF30 on a lip balm is a genuinely protective feature - lips receive significant UV exposure year-round and lack the melanin protection of surrounding facial skin, making them vulnerable to the photodamage that contributes to dryness, loss of definition, and actinic cheilitis in sun-exposed populations
• Fragrance-free and flavour-free formulation prevents the contact allergic reactions that fragranced and flavoured lip balms cause in people with sensitive lips or lip lick dermatitis - a condition where the cycle of licking, drying, and reapplying flavoured balm perpetuates the problem
• Rich emollients deeply hydrate the thin, dry lip skin that lacks sebaceous glands to self-moisturize, providing sustained lip comfort throughout the day without the constant reapplication that lighter balms require
• The QV dermatological approach to formulation means ingredients are selected for maximum skin tolerance with minimal sensitization risk - appropriate for a product used daily in an area adjacent to the mouth
• The combination of moisture and SPF in one product simplifies lip care to a single step rather than requiring a separate moisturizing balm and a UV-protective product

How to Use

• Apply to the lips as needed throughout the day
• Apply before going outdoors for UV protection
• Reapply after eating, drinking, or whenever lips feel dry
• Apply before sleep for overnight repair of dry lips
• Suitable for daily use as the primary lip care product
• Keep out of reach of young children
