Are you a lip balm addict

Are you a lip balm addict like me?  If you apply lip balms multiple times a day, here are the top lip balms with SPF that you should consider.

What is a lip balm addict?

You may be wondering what a lip balm addict is.  If you carry your lip balm around with you and apply it multiple times in one day, this is a lip balm addict.  There’s nothing wrong with it because who doesn’t like soft lips?  Plus, the dryness that happens is uncomfortable.  I may be the biggest lip balm addict ever because I stash multiple lip balms throughout the house so that I have it ‘at the ready’ should the need arise to apply.  Yes, I may have a problem.  Are you a lip balm addict too?

So, you may be asking yourself the same question.  You may not be at the level that I am but if you carry around your lip balm and apply it regularly, you too, are a lip balm addict.  But, it’s OK because you want soft lips too.  It is important to choose the right lip balm.  I’m here to help you do just that because you want to choose one that has good ingredients and has the right protection.

Choosing the right lip balm

You hear a lot about sunscreen in the summer but, in truth, you should wear sunscreen all year round.  Most people don’t.  I admit I never used to do this either but it was a habit that I started to get into.  I even go so far as to check the UV index on weather.com to see how high that number is.

When it comes to lip balm, we should also choose a product that has some SPF in it.  Your alternative is to not go out during the hottest part of they (i.e. when the UV index is higher) or cover your face.  Both are good options.  But, if you do need to venture out, choosing the right lip balm is essential.

If you’re looking at the ingredient list on any product you are considering, you may also want to take some advice from the Environmental Working Group – EWG.com provides the best lip balms with SPF.  A couple of my favorites are:

• Attitude Lip Balm, Coconut, SPF 15
• Badger Mineral Sunscreen, SPF15

So, are you a lip balm addict?  If so, choose the right lip balm and stay protected and healthy.
