## Description

desertcart.com : Waxhead Zinc Oxide Lip Balm – SPF Mineral Lip Sunscreen Chapstick for Kids and Adults, Non Nano Zinc Lip Balm for Sensitive Skin, Reef Safe (Mint 4 Pack) : Beauty & Personal Care

Review: Perfect Product! - I've been suffering from cold sores for a few years that are triggered by the sun. This is the only product that has protected my lips completely! I like to vacation on sunny beaches a few times a year and I thought that I would have to stop or at least never see sun on my face again. I am forever grateful that this product exists! It goes on white but quickly melts to mostly clear and stays on for a long time even under water. I still apply frequently when I'm in the sun though just to be safe. The formula melts quite a bit in the applicator when it's in the heat so you can't use it like a usual twist up applicator but I love this so much that is the least of my worries! I just bought 6 of them so I have them everywhere and my vacations have never been more enjoyable. THANK YOU WAXHEAD!!!
Review: Takes practice to apply but excellent zinc-based SPF lip product. Best in its class. - I have sensitive lips and the sun exposure unfortunately causes reactions if unprotected. Overall, the upsides far outweigh the downsides. Best in class IMO. Pros: I have had no adverse reactions that I used to have with homosalate or octocrylene SPF products. Very gentle formula, and very nice mint feel. No sweeteners. Manufactured in the US. I'm not getting sun-induced reactions so I conclude that this product must be effective. Cons: The only downside to this product is that it is not tinted and therefore, white residue might accumulate. You can mitigate that by thriving to apply a thin layer of the product and spread it evenly.

## Features

- Serious mineral zinc lip balm made with 10% non nano zinc oxide. Applies as a visible layer and gives no-gloss coverage for shoppers who want straightforward outdoor lip care.
- Stays put when other SPF balms melt. Holds up in saltwater, sweat, wind and snow. Great for surfing, fishing, boating, skiing, hiking and beach days where chapstick wears off fast.
- Only 6 food grade ingredients in a chapstick-style stick. Zinc oxide, shea butter, superfine lanolin, beeswax, vegetable vitamin E and peppermint oil. No petroleum, homosalate, octocrylene, oxybenzone, parabens or synthetic fragrance. Clean enough for toddler chapstick needs and safe lip therapy for kids and adults.
- Lip therapy for sensitive and cold sore prone lips. Chosen by people with sun triggered cold sores, sensitive lips and high sun risk. Dermatologists recommend this zinc oxide lip sunscreen when regular SPF chapstick burns, stings or fails to protect.
- Multi use zinc for lips, nose and cheeks with pro application tips. Use as a mineral lip sunscreen stick on lips, nose, cheeks, knuckles and cuticles. Warm a small amount on your fingertip, dot and rub into a thin layer. Goes on white so you can see coverage, then softens as it melts into skin.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you have any lip balms with 20% zinc oxide?**
A: No, we have 10% non-nano zinc oxide in our lip balms, which will give an SPF of at least 20. Also note that our 10% ZnO is more than many brands with less that claim SPFs over 30. Finally, if you're looking for our higher zinc oxide content of 25% (the highest of any brand), ALL our products are perfectly fine for use on the lips, as our zinc oxide is the highest edible-grade quality, and our inactive ingredients are certified organic and of the highest purity. Thanks for the question, and if you need any more info, please feel free to contact us through our website contact page or email address mac@ (can't list our website due to Amazon restrictions).

**Q: What is the spf of this product.**
A: The 10% non nano zinc oxide will deliver about 15 SPF, but we do not list this on our label, since we have not had our lip balm rating independently verified yet. All our other sunscreens SPFs are fully tested and verified.

**Q: Is this lip balm clear but with zinc**
A: Hi Anne Marie,
No, this is not clear. It's very white and will show white on the lips. We do not use any so-called "clear" or "shear" zinc oxide, which is used by some brands in order to make their zinc oxide products less white. They do this by grinding the zinc oxide particles into a fine powder, which creates a large proportion of nano particles (smaller than a nanometer and crucially, small enough to enter into and affect marine biosystems. And since zinc oxide is toxic to most marine life, it's vital for true marine-safe products to use only NON-nano zinc oxide, since such large particles versions are completely safe to marine life, since they are much too large to enter/affect their biosystems, falling to the ocean/river floor where they'll sit inertly permanently, since zinc oxide has a 0 decay rate in water. (However, since the term "reef safe" is not regulated, any product can legally claim it, you'll see many "clear" zinc products claim reef safe status, even though they are absolutely NOT reef safe.) I hope this helps, and if I can help you with anything else, please do not hesitate to contact me directly via our Amazon comm portal, or via my direct line (404) 307-0023. Shannon Kenner

**Q: Does it contain peppermint oil?**
A: Yes - here are the complete list of ingredients: 10% Non-nano Zinc Oxide USP, Certified Organic Shea Butter, Superfine Lanolin USP, Certified Organic Beeswax, Vegetable Vitamin E (non-GMO, from sunflower seeds), Peppermint Essential Oil.

### ⭐ Disappointing
*by R***R on November 17, 2025*

May be a nice product, but the containers are unusable as the product in filled way below the plastic “lip” that holds it. Complete was of money and time. Disappointing
