I talk about this a lot – but summertime is the time to protect your skin.  Not only is it important to protect the skin on your arms, legs, and that extra-thin skin on your decolletage, but what about your lips?  That skin is extra thin and extra sensitive, so you need to protect it just as much, if not more, than the rest of your body.   In this article about lip cancer,  it discusses how often lip cancers are overlooked when it came to skin cancer – which means it’s even more important to protect those lips.

Enter Aquaphor’s Lip Repair and Protect.

This lip care product – which is more like a gel than a balm – is thick and not only helps repair and heal your lips, but with a SPF 30 Broad Spectrum Sunscreen, it will help protect your lips from sun damage.

The Aquaphor Lip Repair and Protect is great for daily use – I prefer to apply it before heading out for the day and under lip gloss or lipstick.  It does have a nice gloss to it, and a very mild taste (I really dislike strong tasting lip products!)   I also like applying it before heading to bed so I can reap as many of the ‘repair’ properties of it as possible while I sleep!  Bye-bye chapped, dry lips!

And lucky you can win your own tube of Aquaphor Lip Repair and Protect, too!

Oh..and a little something else…

That’s right!  A $50 gift card to spend on as much sunscreen as you need!
