Nivea A Kiss of Protection Sun Protection Lip Care SPF 30

April 2009. Experts recommend using an SPF-rated lip balm, such as Nivea A Kiss of Protection Sun Protection Lip Care SPF 30, during the day to protect lips against sun damage. Reviewers say that the lip balm has a surprisingly nice texture despite the high SPF and is very moisturizing due to its emollients, including vitamin E, shea butter and jojoba oil. Nivea A Kiss of Protection provides broad-spectrum protection from the sun with titanium dioxide, an ingredient that can leave a bit of a white cast on your lips, according to some reviewers. Users say, however, that it is easily concealed with a layer of lipstick or lip gloss. If you prefer something with more color, experts say that an opaque lipstick such as MAC Matte Lipstick (*est. $14) provides natural sun protection.
