Is this safe for sensitive lips?

Yes, the 100% mineral formula with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide is gentle enough for the most sensitive lip skin and won't cause irritation like chemical sunscreens can.

Can I wear this under lipstick?

Absolutely. The lightweight formula creates a smooth base that won't interfere with lipstick application. Allow it to set for a few minutes before applying color over top.

How often should I reapply?

Reapply every 2 hours for continuous protection, or immediately after eating, drinking, or activities that remove the product from your lips.

Will this leave a white cast on my lips?

No, the iron oxides in the formula provide subtle tinting that enhances your natural lip color while the mineral sunscreen ingredients blend seamlessly without leaving a white residue.

How to Use

Apply generously to clean, dry lips 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply every 2 hours or immediately after eating, drinking, or swimming. Can be worn alone or under lipstick. For best results, apply in multiple thin layers rather than one thick application.

Pro Tip from Our Clinicians

Perfect for post-treatment lip care after chemical peels or laser treatments at RELUXE. The gentle mineral formula won't irritate healing skin, and the subtle tint helps camouflage any temporary lip discoloration during recovery.
