SPF lipcare
Adding SPF Lipcare to my routine
We all know how important it is to add SPF to our skincare routine but even then I still haven't really added it to my lip care (Yes i know what no SPF) well before i damage any more of my lips, i have finally added some good protection to my lip are routine. I will share which drugstore lip product I choose and use.
Here are a few of my recommendations which will help protect the surface of your lips during your day to day lives.
Most Carmex lip balms have SPF in their range.

How to use
Gently massage all over your lips every day. Re-apply as often as you like, especially if you’re out and about in dry, cold or sunny weather.
There are many more but these are good lip care products with SPF to keep in your handbags and use in a daily basis.
