Summer Buyers' Guide: Lip Protection. Pamper your lips this summer with sun-block-added lipsticks. Your lips need protection from heat, humidity, and the sun's rays -- just like the rest of you. This summer, look for lip products with SPF to minimize damage from the sun's UV rays.
Sun Damage The outer layer of the lip is thin, so in their natural state lips are not adequately shielded from the sun. In fact, lips have almost no melanin, the natural pigment in skin that helps screen out the sun's harmful rays. As a result, lips rarely tan, but they can easily burn. Did you know even licking lips can be more detrimental than helpful, since saliva acts like a lens to intensify sun exposure.
