Mineral Broad Spectrum Protection for Your Lips
The Sun Bum Mineral SPF 30 Lip Balm brings zinc oxide-powered broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection to one of the most sun-exposed and most overlooked spots on your body. Built for people who want a clean, mineral-based approach without synthetic chemical filters, this lip balm with zinc oxide sits at the intersection of real sun protection and genuine lip care.
Zinc Oxide: The Active Mineral Filter
Zinc oxide works as a physical UV filter, sitting on the surface of the skin to reflect and scatter UVA and UVB rays rather than absorbing them chemically. It is oxybenzone-free and PABA-free, making it the preferred active for sensitive lips and for anyone avoiding chemical sunscreen actives. The formula delivers Broad Spectrum SPF 30 and is water resistant for 80 minutes, so it holds up through swimming, surfing, and sweating in the South Florida sun.
Moisturizing Ingredients That Work Alongside the SPF
Sun protection means nothing if the balm strips moisture from already-chapped lips. Sun Bum blended the zinc mineral base with a short list of proven moisturizers:
- Jojoba Oil is structurally similar to the skin's own sebum, so it absorbs readily and helps the formula glide on without drag.
- Shea Butter provides rich emollient conditioning that locks in moisture and helps repair the drying effects of sun, wind, and salt water.
- Beeswax forms a protective barrier on the lip surface, sealing in hydration and giving the balm its smooth, structured texture.
Together these ingredients relieve the drying effects of sun, wind, and sea while the zinc oxide stands guard against UV damage.
Clean Formula, No Compromises
This is a lip balm with mineral sunscreen built around what it leaves out as much as what it includes. The formula is:
- Paraben free
- Oil free active filter (zinc oxide is mineral, not an oil-based chemical filter)
- PABA free
- Oxybenzone free
- Gluten free
- Hypoallergenic
Built for the Water and the Outdoors
At 0.15 oz / 4.25 g, the tube slips into a wetsuit pocket, a board bag side pocket, or a beach bag with zero bulk. The 80-minute water resistance rating means you get real coverage through a surf session or a long beach day, not just the walk from the parking lot to the sand. Reapply after 80 minutes of water exposure or immediately after towel drying.
