Tanning Lip Balms
Protecting lips with a quality sunscreen lip balm or SPF containing
lip balm recipe is very important during your tanning salon visit.
The skin of the lips is the most vulnerable of all because it
contains almost no melanin, the skin pigment that helps absorb
ultraviolet light safely. Lip sun burn can quickly occur if no lip
balm is used, and extended exposure of ultraviolet light may
potentially lead to lip skin cancer.
Because of the way
sunscreens work,
lip balms should be applied 20 to 30 minutes before a tanning visit, and again immediatly before tanning.
These sunscreen lip balms will both moisturize the lips as well as
protect them from UVA and UVB light. In addition, lip balms will
assist in reducing any premature aging or wrinkling of the lips.
Many on-line merchants carry lip balms specifically for
indoor tanning,
and at wholesale lip balm prices to boot.
