FAQ: Why do lips need sun protection?

Lips have no melanin (the skin's natural UV protection) and very thin skin with minimal barrier protection from UV. This makes lips particularly vulnerable to UV damage - including sun-induced chapping, actinic cheilitis (sun-damaged lips) and lip cancer (predominantly on the lower lip which receives the most sun). Daily SPF lip protection is one of the most important and underused sun care habits, especially in high-UV environments like New Zealand.

FAQ: How often should I reapply QV Lip Balm SPF30+?

Reapply every 2 hours during outdoor sun exposure and after eating, drinking or towel drying. For daily incidental sun exposure, morning application with touch-ups after meals provides adequate routine protection. Keep QV Lip Balm in a pocket or bag for easy reapplication throughout the day.
