Melanoma survivor here! I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s in California. Sunscreen wasn’t really a thing that was known or easily available. I began faithful sunscreen application in the 90’s but unfortunately the damage was done. Thankfully UCSF and my team of excellent doctors removed the melanoma and were able to perform an amazing rotational flap to put my face back together. Affordable and effective sunscreen is sometimes difficult to find. I always feel like lip SPF leaves an odd taste in my mouth. I apply anyway but I would love to find an affordable SPF 50 lip product that doesn’t taste horrible. I love Jane products so maybe I’ll try it. Keep us posted on affordable and fabulous sunscreens 💜
Thank you does sharing your story! It’s so, so important that we get people to understand how common skin cancer is. I’m Australian, and I don’t know a single adult over 30 who hasn’t had at least one mole removed- I’ve had two removed (both non cancerous, but better to be safe than sorry). My best friend had to have two pre cancerous moles cut out of her forehead just last year- she’s 34. Yet even here, where we have the highest UV and the highest skin cancer rate in the world, people still don’t take it seriously. My dad refuses to wear sunscreen, and seems to take pride in it? I sent my daughter off with him for a day our and spent a lot of time making sure he’d get my daughter to reapply her SPF50+ every two hours. Which he did, though he didn’t put any on himself. But my daughter has very pale, almost porcelain skin, whereas my dad and I have a very Mediterranean complexion- a type 4 which very rarely burns, and is naturally very olive toned. But still, I wear SPF50+ every day, and he should too. He has a lot of moles, and even though he’s got a higher Fitzgerald skin type, those moles make him a higher risk (and he’s already had a few removed) It just frustrates me so much that even in the skin cancer/UV capital of the world, so many people don’t take sun safety seriously. We tend to be better when it comes to kids (schools and daycares provide sunscreen for free to all children, and they all have no hat, no play rules), but so many adults just don’t seem to care. Though on the plus side, tanning beds are completely illegal where I live.
@@katherinemorelle7115 I think it’s even more difficult for the older generation to regularly use sunscreen. Vintage sunscreens were smelly, burned and left your skin feeling gross. There’s such great options now compared to pre-1990’s. Maybe left him try a great sunscreen when you’re out in the sun together next time. Or just Google Melanoma and a rotational flap surgical pics and share them. It’s seriously no joke. Anything suspicious should be checked by a dermatologist. I had a hole the size of a tennis ball 🎾 on my left cheek. I literally had to have the left side of my face removed down to my neck and rotated to cover the space where the melanoma was. If the cancer was anywhere other than my face, they would have excised 3 times more skin to clear the margins. As you probably know, if not caught soon enough you will have 5 or less years to live. There’s no real treatment. No chemotherapy or radiation, only immunotherapy. Sometimes doctors will desperately try to treat it with conventional chemo and radiation but it just doesn’t work. I’m almost 48 and thankful for every day I have with my children.
I use spf lipstick and I think its ok to protect yourself but I think viewing the sun as something absolutely destructive is wrong. I am not saying dont use spf I use it a lot as I am a red hair. But the sun plays a.huge roll in hormonal balance, serotonine production, good sleep, killing bacteria, keeping your pineal gland functioning well and a lot of other things. Skin cancer is not only caused by sunlight. I think its little bit psicologically unhealthy too, to think that what literally gives you life and makes this world exist is destroying you, I don't wanna be constantly worried about the light. Again I agree with using spf. But that radical view its too much. Things that are too far.away from nature will never make you look your best. I dnt have wrinkles or lines on my lips and I didnt always use spf.
Interesting, I was questioning myself about it cause I only use my lip balm when it's cold for hydration and recently noticed it does have spf on it. Guess I'll start wearing it daily now thanks 💖
@@missbubble44 It was out of stock for a long time when it’s came back I buyed 4 of it. Seems great it has different chemical filters, it's moisturizing, didn't dry out your lips like other spf lip products. I also asked an opinion to Dr Dray but I didn't receive answer yet! But James Welsh recommend it in a recent video!
There is also the lip screen by Supergoop who is a good choice it’s a transparent lip gloss so it's good over a lipstick or alone. The downside it’s the price!
It says on their website that the SPF Colorescience Lip Balm in Berry is not vegan-friendly. They use carmine for the coloring. The Blush and Bronze color, however, are vegan-friendly. Just a heads up for anyone that's concerned about that!
I love the La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL SPF 50+ Lip Balm, it makes my lips kinda white but after blending it turns out okay! I wish people knew the importance of spf lip balm, my mom developed melanoma on her lower lip due to the lack of it.
I really love Rohto Mentholatum - Melty Cream Lip. It is SPF 25 and comes in three flavors or fragrance free. I have found them on stylevana and yesstyle. GREAT option. Hope that helps!
Hi there! Could you maybe do a video on SPF scalp protection please? I don’t really see many people speaking about but it seems like another important part that should be protected from the sun. Thank you!
Try SEBAMED Lip Defense spf 30. It looks and tastes exactly like a normal cherry/strawberry-flavored lip balm and is really moisturizing. My all time favorite✨❤️
The Coola Mineral Liplux has become a new favorite of mine! Tinted, SPF 30, and the mineral formula doesn’t leave behind a weird taste and it’s cruelty-free and vegan! And only $18! 100% recommend!
I use the Blistex chapstick with spf and go over it with either my Sephora lip gloss or the Blistex moisture revitalizer which leaves my lips buttery soft.
The ones that I’ve tried are the Physicians Formula’s Butter Lip Cream with SPF 20, they’re literally like butter and have multiple colors. Love your videos💕
I was hoping to hear more about taste for all of of them as you did for the first one. I’m not picky when it comes to lip sunscreen, I just don’t want it to take bitter because try as you may, you are going to be eating it.
I recently bought the carmex one from Amazon for $3 and is 15 SPF,it moisturize and doesn't leave a cast on but it have a strong scent of mint. Try this one Cassandra
A good lip sunscreen available in South East Asia and Australia is the Ego QV lip balm SPF30. It's fragrance free and uses chemical filters. Affordable and easily accessible.
I prefer the Ego SunSense SPF50+ balm. Mostly because I don’t bother with anything below a 50+. But it’s also really lovely, very moisturising (with a Shea butter base), has excellent chemical filters, is fragrance and flavour free (it’s completely tasteless), and doesn’t leave a white cast (even on my lips with hyperpigmentation, and they show even the smallest white cast). It’s also very affordable ($8) and accessible, available at every pharmacy in the country (if they aren’t sold out). Pretty sure it’s the most popular lip sunscreen here. But you can’t go wrong with Ego generally, I find.
The spf 50 lip balm from Cetaphil is my favourite. I've melanated (is that the right word?) lips and it leaves absolutely no white cast and weird tint and it also doesn't bunch up in my inner lips or the sides of my lips after a while like some other lip balms. Super hydrating too however I always apply a lip colour on top of it cause it's transparent
I've been having issues with my lips and found that chemical sunscreen is NOT for me. But I'm just trying the COOLA lip sunscreen (it's mineral) and it works great!
Once again, Cassandra comes in to save my day! I’ve been looking into these & had no idea where to turn to. Thank you for this & I can’t wait to see what you recommend! ❤️
I love Nivea's sunscreen lip balm. It's goes on nice and smooth like softened butter and it's much more affordable than the Jane Iridale. There's only clear though but I can just layer a colored product on top after letting it sit for a bit on my lips.
Honestly whatever sunscreen you use for your face as long as it's waterproof is fine for your lips too! ☺️ A chapstick with SPF is great but if you're on a budget then this is an acceptable solution.
I need to watch this!!! My lips peel especially all around them. I use sunscreen for my sensitive skin but my lips every year are such a pain. I'm a loader for lowed so I'm also in the sun ALL DAY. :/ Thank you!♡
Aquaphor SPF is amazing. No cast and most of the usual aquaphor emollient effect. It also layers really well with a lip tint or a bit of lip crayon. Only SPF 30 😢 which will of course be reduced with colorants.
Hi cassandra, my story is similar to cindy's. I was a "child of the 60's" and, because of problems with acne, low self esteem and the fact that sun somehow kept my skin clear, i was a sun worshiper --- and, because it was the 60s, the idea that sun could cause cancer wasn't talked about that much. fast forward to the land of great regrets. having just had a biopsy performed i my lips and now waiting anxiously for the results, i can say from experience, DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE NEED FOR MINERAL SUNSCREEN ON THE LIPS AND FACE!! i say mineral because, you are what you eat and, if you are trying to protect yourself from deadly chemicals and things that can cause cancer, why in all that is good and holy someone would want to apply a chemical sunscreen is beyond me (other than to avoid the white cast). i would just like to thank you for your review and hope you do more reviews like this one with an emphasis on mineral sunscreens that are not only good for our health but good for our coral reefs. i don't know that people realized that chemical sunscreens not only take longer to work but are killer for our ocean . in general, they just aren't the best.
I've used Herpecin L for years because I get fever blisters on my lips in the sun. I've found out how common it is for people to use this one and all my friends love it, too! I believe its SPF 30 and is found at all drugstores. No whitecast
The Sun Bum Mineral SPF 30 Sunscreen Lip Balm is worth checking out. It leaves a slight white cast and wouldn't be the best for highly pigmented lips, but it's $3.99 and fragrance-free (it actually has a pleasant, kind of coconutty smell and taste, despite that). They also make tinted lip balms that are nice, with SPF 15.
I use one that is a chemical sunscreen that has SPF 15 which Ik its not the best but oh well its better than nothing. UDATE AFTER WATCHING VIDEO: I thought you was gonna talk about more specific things about lipcancer and the different things about lipcancer and the different SPF that you need for your lips and them how SPF15 isn't always the best and go more in depth about Different things that can go wrong when not wearing lip protection or any type of moisturization on your lips but other than that good job mother butterfly 🦋👑
For anyone who doesnt mind organic filters… i have sensitive skin and these are magnifiqueee: Rohto Mentholatum melty lip is great, just spf 25 but easy to reapply & comfy… hello sunday for a US lip sunscreen. Spf 50, fantastic marvelous highly recommend
Softlips Spf 20 is my go to lip balm that has SPF. Goes on smooth, buttery & doesn't leave a white cast or purple tinge & also comes in different flavors that don't taste horrible or spf-y. Not sure if they are cruelty free or vegan but worth a try if your looking for a new spf lip balm.
I recently got the bondi sands lip balm with spf 50, and I can say it's really nice! It feels super nourishing and has a pleasant vanillary smell but there are other flavours too, and was only £5 which I really appreciate. Was wondering if you had tried this and if you have any thoughts on it? (It's cruelty free and vegan btw)
If you’re an Aussie (or just love Australian SPF products, which you should, we have excellent SPF products here for obvious reasons), the best and cheapest is the Ego Sunsense SPF 50+ Broad Spectrum (all high SPFs here are broad spectrum) lip balm. It’s also only $8. In Australia, where everything except for sunscreen is more expensive (seriously, I see the prices of sunscreen in the US and my jaw drops, and our cost of living is usually at least double!) Also Dr Dray approved- it’s one of her overall favourites. And it’s great- very moisturising, fragrance free, no white cast, has vitamin E in it too, and did I mention it’s cheap? Definitely the way to go if you have access to it.
Also, I was shocked when I learned that in the US, daycares and schools don’t put sunscreen (usually kept in massive 2kg pump bottles that cost only $5-$10) on all children as a matter of course. In fact, kids need to have a doctor’s note excusing them (if they’re allergic to a sunscreen, in which case, usually the parents send their own). Also, ALL schools have no hat, no play rules on the schoolyard. We have uniforms, but even on free dress days, there are rules about all shirts having to have proper sleeves (no bared shoulders, and it’s not for a sexist reason, which is nice). Australia has the highest UV in the world, so our sunscreens are cheap, but must be of very high quality, and especially when it comes to kids, we take sun safety very seriously (or at least, we have from my generation onward). I still remember the Slip, Slop, Slap jingle from my childhood (look it up, it’s a banger). You slip on a shirt, slop on sunscreen and slap on a hat. They have a couple extra ones these days (for shade and sunnies), but they don’t fit into the jingle as well. So learning that some schools in America require a doctor’s note FOR sunscreen, as opposed to an opt out system, kinda blew my mind- as did the fact that it isn’t provided for free to all children. And how expensive sunscreen is in the States. Like I said- we can get litres of the stuff for under $10, schools are given sunscreen for free, and it’s of much higher quality (with newer and better chemical filters) than what you can get in the US. I will say that our sunscreen formulations tend to not be quite as elegant as those of Asian markets. They’re usually thicker, greasier, not as nice on the face. But they’re developed for spending a day at the beach in the broiling Australian sun- they’re workhorses, not so much fancy racehorses. That being said, the SunSense lip balm is very elegant, it feels lovely on the lips, has no taste or smell, is very moisturising, very protective, and doesn’t leave a cast (even with my darker lip colour). I have hyperpigmentation around the edges of my lips, so any white cast is noticeable on me. This is excellent stuff!
I just ordered some Sun Bum spf30 lip balm, and it should be arriving today. I've read good things about it. I prefer spf50 because I am super susceptible to skin cancer from the sun being a pale red head, but I'm also not outside a lot, nor do I sit near windows inside my house.
There are so many great spf lip products that are inexpensive. The Revlon Kiss has an spf 30 that is beautiful. Softlips has an spf of 20. Lipsmackers Kiss Therapy Strawberry has an spf 30. Sun bum has some that exceed spf 30. There are many out there if you look. The reason I know this is I just recently bought a ton of sunscreen products for my family who are now in Miami on vacation. I didn't want to send any lip spf products down that weren't atleast spf 20. Most of them were spf 30 and up.
Idk if Im remembering correctly but I heared that lip spf is more safe since you might ingest it and its a dedicated lip product, which has to be formulated with that in mind... Im not sure though!! For what I can say for sure is that the lip spf i tried (mostly from yesstyle) usually dont taste as funny as normal sunscreen lol so its definetly worth it, and not as drying as face spf can be sometimes on the lip
It’s fine for early in the day but since we eat with our lips and unconsciously lick our lips it’s very easy for most of it to be removed within a couple hours. This is why lip balms and lipsticks are EXTRA THICK and emollient- so it’s not easy to eat/lick it off
I do this and it works for me. The thing is, maybe its a little toxic if you eat or drink. I mean sometimes I drink water amd it tastes.a.bit like spf which is not great. Also make sure its water resistant.
I like the Jane iredale Lip Drink, but it's a low SPF. I'm currently using one that I bought at a drugstore with SPF 50, Lavozon. Don't know if you have it in the US. It was cheap (converted to 7USD). One thing I noticed with every SPF product for my lips is that it dries out my lips. You won't notice it instantly, but after several months of consistent use, applying it several times a day, it will come back and bite you in the...but this one performed the best so far! Also, no white cast on my lips or anything, it's clear.
The lip 'balm' I use is from the Hempz cbd line, with the blue packaging. It looks more like a lip gloss, but it has spf 15 in it, feels really nice, and there's a lot of product in it. $15 as well, which isn't terrible. Applying it is super easy, and it doesn't feel sticky. It really helps with my dry lips
I recently got Rohto Mentholatum Melty Cream Lip SPF 25/PA+++. It goes on clear, has no white cast, and doesn’t have any weird taste. Unfortunately it’s not vegan. I’d suggest looking at Japanese lip SPFs for affordable options that really perform.
Either that, or Australian lip SPFs. Anything by Ego is fantastic, but I love their SunSense SPF50+ lip balm. It’s completely tasteless and odourless, very moisturising, has excellent chemical filters, no white cast, and is affordable ($8 a tube). I personally don’t bother with anything less than a 50+, because Australian sun. And I find there are quite a few really good 50+ lip balms on the market here.
short answer: YES OMG. i filmed a netflix kids show on the beach for a couple weeks and was ofc in the sun 12 hours every day. they wouldn’t let me go back to get my spf lip balm, and i had no lip balm for one entire day. the next day i woke up with my bottom lip 3x it’s size & swollen. i went to the ER and was told i had a 2nd degree sunburn on my lip. never again.
Fordyce spots… other than slicing or chemical burns… what can we do? Most people get them as we age, which is one of the reasons lipstick was invented: to counteract lips losing vibrancy, going blue, Fordyce profiliration, thinning & deplumping, cracking & flaking…
hello queen, i'd love to recommend the facetheory lip balm, its really nice. I wish you tried some of facetheory products and told us what your general thoughts about the brand/products are
It sucks that I can't get Colorescience shipped to my country. 😿 So I'd like to see more options for tinted lip sunscreens with high SPF, and options for tinted body sunscreens would be nice as well
If anybody is here looking for recs the Jack Black (haha) brand is actually one of my personal favorites! The flavors are all interesting but if you don't like fragrance you might need to watch out
James Welsh also recommend some, so honestly idk which ones to get and try out :( love you and your content sm and please do a video on hair especially since your supposed to put sunscreen on your exposed hair line and stuff so I’m not sure how to carry on with that
thanks for teaching us! i wish you could try the lip balms from germany's drugstores! they are 2 euros and spf 50+! i am talking about rossmann's and dm's own brands
Can you do a video on hydrator/moisturizers for peeling lips? My lips aren't burned, it's a condition I've had since i could remember (im in my lower 30s). My bottom lip has always peeled. I've tried constant lip balm (any cheap to more expensive brands; blistex, aquapher, carmex, burts bees etc), that never seemed to work or make my lips dryer after it wears off. I have a hard time with not picking though i am much better now than before. They would bleed if i peeled too much. Even if they didnt bleed, the new skin would hardened and eventually crack/split and start peeling. If I didnt pick, I'd have dead skin hanging off my lip. People definitely notice it. My upper lip is a normal soft lip skin. So i have an idea of what my bottom lip would be like if it was healthy. Thank you for your amazing videos and I think I am seeing results in my skin (I have been an acne sufferer for over 20 years, it has controlled my life), I've changed my diet and am using better products, I am now working on my mental self. Thankful - Sarah Edit: Unfortunately I can't afford to go to a dermatologist atm. When I had good insurance, I went to the dermatologist for years (from like 13 to 26 years old) for my acne, of course nothing ever worked and sometimes made my skin badly irritated, and all the wasted $$$.
My lips have zero pigment due to the sun. Growing up on the beach in the late 90s early 2000s, we rarely used spf. Lip stain won't even work on me for some reason. So now I have white lips with brown spots.
I adoreeeee the Fresh Sugar Balms (both tinted and clear). They're real 4-in-1 formulas that provide your lips with everything they need. They protect my lips in our VERY cold, dry, chapping Canadian winters. Nice, not overpowering scent. But it's friggin' $32 CAD!!! For a single tube that does NOT last. And it's only SPF 15, I believe. Cheesus. I need to find a better 4-in-1 - and a 3-in-1 for night usage - that ISN'T outrageously priced. 😣 And by 4-in-1, I mean a formula with occlusives, emollients, humectants (and preferably some water of some kind), AND SPF! I just feel so stupid, paying $32 for a glorified chapstick. It's so hard to find good lip products, at all. Never mind ones also including SPF. It's ridic.
Hi Cass - have you tried the Hello Sunday Lip SPF 50, Paula’s Choice Lip SPF and Bondi Sans lip spf all of them are 50+ and much more affordable than the Color Science one. Cheers!
Hey Cassandra! I'd love to see a review of the Brush on Block tinted lip oil. They've got 3 different colors I've been eyeballing, and they're a vegan alternative to the colorescience, which sadly uses carmine (crushed beetles).
Please, please, please do a video about NANO titanium dioxid, nano zinc oxide and aluminium and it‘s derivatives in sunscreen. Are they dangerous, do they stay for ever in the body. In France nano titanium dioxid is illegal because it’s considered potential harmful. Also thank for all your content 👏🙌
I have severe dry lips and have even tried to consult with a dermat but nothing is working. I have been applying lip balms, vaseline since my initial teenage years. I can literally peel off the upper layer super easy. Please do a video on “Sahara Dessert lips”
Ooo cannot confirm the vegan/cruelty free status, BUT I just got this spf 25 off Stylevana: Rohto Mentholatum Melty Cream Lip - it’s actually moisturizing which I feel like is sadly rare for lip spfs?! 😅

I thinkk Dr Dray mentioned in a video once that it is ok to use face spf on lips - but best to double check that
I use stick sunscreens on my lips, a lot of them explicitly have that on their packaging that you can use them on your lips
@@qytj1182 Yes, Dr Dray said you can do that, if the consistency of the cream doesn’t cause you discomfort :)
Dr Dray did say using your regular SPF is fine but she also has several videos on SPF lip balms.
Cassandra, I would love to know more tinted spf products, such as the Colorescience, to use as make up during "no make up" days.
I would LOVE it if you reviewed the spf lip products from Paula’s Choice!
I recently bought the carmex one from Amazon for $3 and is 15 SPF,it moisturize and doesn't leave a cast on but it have a strong scent of mint. Try this one Cassandra
A good lip sunscreen available in South East Asia and Australia is the Ego QV lip balm SPF30. It's fragrance free and uses chemical filters. Affordable and easily accessible.
I prefer the Ego SunSense SPF50+ balm. Mostly because I don’t bother with anything below a 50+. But it’s also really lovely, very moisturising (with a Shea butter base), has excellent chemical filters, is fragrance and flavour free (it’s completely tasteless), and doesn’t leave a white cast (even on my lips with hyperpigmentation, and they show even the smallest white cast). It’s also very affordable ($8) and accessible, available at every pharmacy in the country (if they aren’t sold out). Pretty sure it’s the most popular lip sunscreen here. But you can’t go wrong with Ego generally, I find.
This question has been in my mind for a while thank you for this subject
Yass gurl give me that late night content
The spf 50 lip balm from Cetaphil is my favourite. I've melanated (is that the right word?) lips and it leaves absolutely no white cast and weird tint and it also doesn't bunch up in my inner lips or the sides of my lips after a while like some other lip balms. Super hydrating too however I always apply a lip colour on top of it cause it's transparent
I've been having issues with my lips and found that chemical sunscreen is NOT for me. But I'm just trying the COOLA lip sunscreen (it's mineral) and it works great!
Once again, Cassandra comes in to save my day! I’ve been looking into these & had no idea where to turn to. Thank you for this & I can’t wait to see what you recommend! ❤️
Bby I really need an updated lip care routine for dry and dehydrated lips in winter ❤️ love U
I love Nivea's sunscreen lip balm. It's goes on nice and smooth like softened butter and it's much more affordable than the Jane Iridale. There's only clear though but I can just layer a colored product on top after letting it sit for a bit on my lips.
Honestly whatever sunscreen you use for your face as long as it's waterproof is fine for your lips too! ☺️ A chapstick with SPF is great but if you're on a budget then this is an acceptable solution.
I need to watch this!!! My lips peel especially all around them. I use sunscreen for my sensitive skin but my lips every year are such a pain.
I'm a loader for lowed so I'm also in the sun ALL DAY. :/
Thank you!♡
Aquaphor SPF is amazing. No cast and most of the usual aquaphor emollient effect. It also layers really well with a lip tint or a bit of lip crayon. Only SPF 30 😢 which will of course be reduced with colorants.
Hi cassandra, my story is similar to cindy's. I was a "child of the 60's" and, because of problems with acne, low self esteem and the fact that sun somehow kept my skin clear, i was a sun worshiper --- and, because it was the 60s, the idea that sun could cause cancer wasn't talked about that much. fast forward to the land of great regrets. having just had a biopsy performed i my lips and now waiting anxiously for the results, i can say from experience, DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE NEED FOR MINERAL SUNSCREEN ON THE LIPS AND FACE!! i say mineral because, you are what you eat and, if you are trying to protect yourself from deadly chemicals and things that can cause cancer, why in all that is good and holy someone would want to apply a chemical sunscreen is beyond me (other than to avoid the white cast). i would just like to thank you for your review and hope you do more reviews like this one with an emphasis on mineral sunscreens that are not only good for our health but good for our coral reefs. i don't know that people realized that chemical sunscreens not only take longer to work but are killer for our ocean . in general, they just aren't the best.
Full face of SPF makeup please!! 😍
I've used Herpecin L for years because I get fever blisters on my lips in the sun. I've found out how common it is for people to use this one and all my friends love it, too! I believe its SPF 30 and is found at all drugstores. No whitecast
YESSS CAN WE HAVE AN SPF MAKE UP ROUTINE AND I LOVE YOU ❤️
The Sun Bum Mineral SPF 30 Sunscreen Lip Balm is worth checking out. It leaves a slight white cast and wouldn't be the best for highly pigmented lips, but it's $3.99 and fragrance-free (it actually has a pleasant, kind of coconutty smell and taste, despite that).
They also make tinted lip balms that are nice, with SPF 15.
Spf is needed all over your body in general🤓❤
I use one that is a chemical sunscreen that has SPF 15 which Ik its not the best but oh well its better than nothing.
UDATE AFTER WATCHING VIDEO: I thought you was gonna talk about more specific things about lipcancer and the different things about lipcancer and the different SPF that you need for your lips and them how SPF15 isn't always the best and go more in depth about Different things that can go wrong when not wearing lip protection or any type of moisturization on your lips but other than that good job mother butterfly 🦋👑
For anyone who doesnt mind organic filters… i have sensitive skin and these are magnifiqueee: Rohto Mentholatum melty lip is great, just spf 25 but easy to reapply & comfy… hello sunday for a US lip sunscreen. Spf 50, fantastic marvelous highly recommend
Yep.. I use them especially hiking and backpacking
I’d love to see a video on spf Make-up! Powders, cream products, proper application, and your recommendations 😊
Softlips Spf 20 is my go to lip balm that has SPF. Goes on smooth, buttery & doesn't leave a white cast or purple tinge & also comes in different flavors that don't taste horrible or spf-y. Not sure if they are cruelty free or vegan but worth a try if your looking for a new spf lip balm.
Has been thinking about this recently, so thank u for the video!! ❤️
Lip balm Spf 50 from Paulas Choice is AMAZING! Also Lanolips has tinted spf 30 balms which are cheap and does the job! 🦋💕
I was actually looking a review on Paula's Choice Lip Balm SPF 50 and La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL SPF 50+. Just to give some ideas for comparison.
Love elta md does protect. Colorscience do not like packing too big for lips, bit drying as well. My favorite so far is paulas choice spf
Color science lip balm also has perfume in it (for those who are allergic to perfumes).
I recently got the bondi sands lip balm with spf 50, and I can say it's really nice! It feels super nourishing and has a pleasant vanillary smell but there are other flavours too, and was only £5 which I really appreciate. Was wondering if you had tried this and if you have any thoughts on it? (It's cruelty free and vegan btw)
If you’re an Aussie (or just love Australian SPF products, which you should, we have excellent SPF products here for obvious reasons), the best and cheapest is the Ego Sunsense SPF 50+ Broad Spectrum (all high SPFs here are broad spectrum) lip balm. It’s also only $8. In Australia, where everything except for sunscreen is more expensive (seriously, I see the prices of sunscreen in the US and my jaw drops, and our cost of living is usually at least double!)
Also Dr Dray approved- it’s one of her overall favourites. And it’s great- very moisturising, fragrance free, no white cast, has vitamin E in it too, and did I mention it’s cheap? Definitely the way to go if you have access to it.
Also, I was shocked when I learned that in the US, daycares and schools don’t put sunscreen (usually kept in massive 2kg pump bottles that cost only $5-$10) on all children as a matter of course. In fact, kids need to have a doctor’s note excusing them (if they’re allergic to a sunscreen, in which case, usually the parents send their own). Also, ALL schools have no hat, no play rules on the schoolyard. We have uniforms, but even on free dress days, there are rules about all shirts having to have proper sleeves (no bared shoulders, and it’s not for a sexist reason, which is nice).
Australia has the highest UV in the world, so our sunscreens are cheap, but must be of very high quality, and especially when it comes to kids, we take sun safety very seriously (or at least, we have from my generation onward). I still remember the Slip, Slop, Slap jingle from my childhood (look it up, it’s a banger). You slip on a shirt, slop on sunscreen and slap on a hat. They have a couple extra ones these days (for shade and sunnies), but they don’t fit into the jingle as well.
So learning that some schools in America require a doctor’s note FOR sunscreen, as opposed to an opt out system, kinda blew my mind- as did the fact that it isn’t provided for free to all children. And how expensive sunscreen is in the States. Like I said- we can get litres of the stuff for under $10, schools are given sunscreen for free, and it’s of much higher quality (with newer and better chemical filters) than what you can get in the US. I will say that our sunscreen formulations tend to not be quite as elegant as those of Asian markets. They’re usually thicker, greasier, not as nice on the face. But they’re developed for spending a day at the beach in the broiling Australian sun- they’re workhorses, not so much fancy racehorses.
That being said, the SunSense lip balm is very elegant, it feels lovely on the lips, has no taste or smell, is very moisturising, very protective, and doesn’t leave a cast (even with my darker lip colour). I have hyperpigmentation around the edges of my lips, so any white cast is noticeable on me. This is excellent stuff!
hi cass❤️ love you.
please tell me that a video about Dear Klair's is comiiiiing, we need it 🦋
Best makeup spf products is a must now ❤️
I just ordered some Sun Bum spf30 lip balm, and it should be arriving today. I've read good things about it. I prefer spf50 because I am super susceptible to skin cancer from the sun being a pale red head, but I'm also not outside a lot, nor do I sit near windows inside my house.
There are so many great spf lip products that are inexpensive. The Revlon Kiss has an spf 30 that is beautiful. Softlips has an spf of 20. Lipsmackers Kiss Therapy Strawberry has an spf 30. Sun bum has some that exceed spf 30. There are many out there if you look. The reason I know this is I just recently bought a ton of sunscreen products for my family who are now in Miami on vacation. I didn't want to send any lip spf products down that weren't atleast spf 20. Most of them were spf 30 and up.
Thank you for this Cassandra it can't be said enough! Another area people forget or just don't think about is the ear.
Can’t you just use your regular SPF on your lips as well or is that not okay?
Idk if Im remembering correctly but I heared that lip spf is more safe since you might ingest it and its a dedicated lip product, which has to be formulated with that in mind... Im not sure though!!
For what I can say for sure is that the lip spf i tried (mostly from yesstyle) usually dont taste as funny as normal sunscreen lol so its definetly worth it, and not as drying as face spf can be sometimes on the lip
It’s fine for early in the day but since we eat with our lips and unconsciously lick our lips it’s very easy for most of it to be removed within a couple hours. This is why lip balms and lipsticks are EXTRA THICK and emollient- so it’s not easy to eat/lick it off
I do this and it works for me. The thing is, maybe its a little toxic if you eat or drink. I mean sometimes I drink water amd it tastes.a.bit like spf which is not great.
Also make sure its water resistant.
I love knowing I can always get some awesome, vegan product recommendations from your channel!
I've tried Coloreacience Lip SPF 50. I like it. I wish it was more lipstick shaped, as it goes over my lips when applying.
I like the Jane iredale Lip Drink, but it's a low SPF. I'm currently using one that I bought at a drugstore with SPF 50, Lavozon. Don't know if you have it in the US. It was cheap (converted to 7USD). One thing I noticed with every SPF product for my lips is that it dries out my lips. You won't notice it instantly, but after several months of consistent use, applying it several times a day, it will come back and bite you in the...but this one performed the best so far! Also, no white cast on my lips or anything, it's clear.
The lip 'balm' I use is from the Hempz cbd line, with the blue packaging. It looks more like a lip gloss, but it has spf 15 in it, feels really nice, and there's a lot of product in it. $15 as well, which isn't terrible. Applying it is super easy, and it doesn't feel sticky. It really helps with my dry lips
Have you tried the Sun Bum ones yet? Those are in my price range and cruelty free and vegan. Can get a 3 pack for like $10 if I remember correctly.
Have you tried them? It’s like the chemicals infiltrate your mouth and you can’t get the flavor out
@@renhig7743 I have not yet. That's kind of why I asked. Been looking into them. Still have some lip balm to finish before buying others
How do u read my mind? I was just searching for a good lip spf yesterday! Id love if you try the mdsolar sciences lip spf pleeeaase 🥔🦋
Yes they do i have learnt the hard way, if i dont use spf i have massive cold sores, lip balm with spf in summer id essential for me x
I recently got Rohto Mentholatum Melty Cream Lip SPF 25/PA+++. It goes on clear, has no white cast, and doesn’t have any weird taste. Unfortunately it’s not vegan. I’d suggest looking at Japanese lip SPFs for affordable options that really perform.
Either that, or Australian lip SPFs. Anything by Ego is fantastic, but I love their SunSense SPF50+ lip balm. It’s completely tasteless and odourless, very moisturising, has excellent chemical filters, no white cast, and is affordable ($8 a tube).
I personally don’t bother with anything less than a 50+, because Australian sun. And I find there are quite a few really good 50+ lip balms on the market here.
Jack Black SPF Lip Balm is amazing!!
um. *yes. kings and queens*
butitissomethingevenioverlook
short answer: YES OMG. i filmed a netflix kids show on the beach for a couple weeks and was ofc in the sun 12 hours every day. they wouldn’t let me go back to get my spf lip balm, and i had no lip balm for one entire day. the next day i woke up with my bottom lip 3x it’s size & swollen. i went to the ER and was told i had a 2nd degree sunburn on my lip. never again.
Excess sun exposure is a horrible trigger for cold sores for my boyfriend, he uses the aquaphor with spf but I'm interested to try some of these!
COOLA organic Spf 30 lip balm works great.
can we use our regular sunscreen on our lips? please don't laugh at me im just curious 🥺
As long as your sunscreen stays in place and the taste doesn't bother you, yes you can use it on your lips!
It’s less likely to stay on the lips, and usually doesn’t taste very good.
I HIGHLY recommend Nivea lip balm SFP 30...
I grabbed sunbum spf balm. It works for me, but I'm not much of a make-up wearer.
Yesss whole face of sunscreen products I’m here for it
Fordyce spots… other than slicing or chemical burns… what can we do?
Most people get them as we age, which is one of the reasons lipstick was invented: to counteract lips losing vibrancy, going blue, Fordyce profiliration, thinning & deplumping, cracking & flaking…
Check out a video from Dr Dray. She recommends other things in addition to the more serious options.
hello queen, i'd love to recommend the facetheory lip balm, its really nice. I wish you tried some of facetheory products and told us what your general thoughts about the brand/products are
I’ve used the coola tinted mineral lip balm and liked it!
I like the Sun Bum in the black tube. SPF 30. Cheap.
It sucks that I can't get Colorescience shipped to my country. 😿 So I'd like to see more options for tinted lip sunscreens with high SPF, and options for tinted body sunscreens would be nice as well
I learnt this the hard way when I was on isotretinoin .legit looked like the thumbnail😭
Do a full face of spf make up please!
If anybody is here looking for recs the Jack Black (haha) brand is actually one of my personal favorites! The flavors are all interesting but if you don't like fragrance you might need to watch out
James Welsh also recommend some, so honestly idk which ones to get and try out :( love you and your content sm and please do a video on hair especially since your supposed to put sunscreen on your exposed hair line and stuff so I’m not sure how to carry on with that
Can you address the re-application of sunscreen? Does clean skin matter? Or does it matter less than sun protection?
thanks for teaching us! i wish you could try the lip balms from germany's drugstores! they are 2 euros and spf 50+! i am talking about rossmann's and dm's own brands
I just used the spf I put on my face over my lips but yes your lips can get sunburnt
I love the vanicream spf lip.
Can you do a video on hydrator/moisturizers for peeling lips? My lips aren't burned, it's a condition I've had since i could remember (im in my lower 30s).
My bottom lip has always peeled. I've tried constant lip balm (any cheap to more expensive brands; blistex, aquapher, carmex, burts bees etc), that never seemed to work or make my lips dryer after it wears off.
I have a hard time with not picking though i am much better now than before. They would bleed if i peeled too much. Even if they didnt bleed, the new skin would hardened and eventually crack/split and start peeling. If I didnt pick, I'd have dead skin hanging off my lip. People definitely notice it.
My upper lip is a normal soft lip skin. So i have an idea of what my bottom lip would be like if it was healthy.
Thank you for your amazing videos and I think I am seeing results in my skin (I have been an acne sufferer for over 20 years, it has controlled my life), I've changed my diet and am using better products, I am now working on my mental self.
Thankful - Sarah
Edit: Unfortunately I can't afford to go to a dermatologist atm. When I had good insurance, I went to the dermatologist for years (from like 13 to 26 years old) for my acne, of course nothing ever worked and sometimes made my skin badly irritated, and all the wasted $$$.
Please try Hurraw! Organic sun protection balm spf 15! It's vegan, cruelty free, £4.99
I'm very very interested in video about full makeup made of different sunscreens :D
My lips have zero pigment due to the sun. Growing up on the beach in the late 90s early 2000s, we rarely used spf. Lip stain won't even work on me for some reason. So now I have white lips with brown spots.
I adoreeeee the Fresh Sugar Balms (both tinted and clear). They're real 4-in-1 formulas that provide your lips with everything they need. They protect my lips in our VERY cold, dry, chapping Canadian winters. Nice, not overpowering scent.
But it's friggin' $32 CAD!!! For a single tube that does NOT last. And it's only SPF 15, I believe. Cheesus. I need to find a better 4-in-1 - and a 3-in-1 for night usage - that ISN'T outrageously priced. 😣 And by 4-in-1, I mean a formula with occlusives, emollients, humectants (and preferably some water of some kind), AND SPF! I just feel so stupid, paying $32 for a glorified chapstick.
It's so hard to find good lip products, at all. Never mind ones also including SPF. It's ridic.
Sending love from India Cassie ❤️
Hi Cass - have you tried the Hello Sunday Lip SPF 50, Paula’s Choice Lip SPF and Bondi Sans lip spf all of them are 50+ and much more affordable than the Color Science one. Cheers!
Love, Sun Bum Premium Zinc Formula Lip Balm SPF 30, end of discussion.
I just can't get enough of your videos!! 😭
Hey Cassandra! I'd love to see a review of the Brush on Block tinted lip oil. They've got 3 different colors I've been eyeballing, and they're a vegan alternative to the colorescience, which sadly uses carmine (crushed beetles).
Please, please, please do a video about NANO titanium dioxid, nano zinc oxide and aluminium and it‘s derivatives in sunscreen. Are they dangerous, do they stay for ever in the body. In France nano titanium dioxid is illegal because it’s considered potential harmful.
Also thank for all your content 👏🙌
Ah! The Neutrogena one ?!! It’s small and black and totally perfect and affordable
I have severe dry lips and have even tried to consult with a dermat but nothing is working. I have been applying lip balms, vaseline since my initial teenage years. I can literally peel off the upper layer super easy. Please do a video on “Sahara Dessert lips”
Ooo cannot confirm the vegan/cruelty free status, BUT I just got this spf 25 off Stylevana: Rohto Mentholatum Melty Cream Lip - it’s actually moisturizing which I feel like is sadly rare for lip spfs?! 😅
