Product Description

WHY IT WORKS: Guard your lips from the drying effects of the sun, wind and sea. Lifeguard’s Choice Lip Balm is similar to our beeswax lip balm, with added titanium dioxide for extra protection. While the lifeguards are out saving lives, we’re out saving lips. HOW IT WORKS: Apply balm liberally to lips before venturing outside. May also be applied to cheeks, nose, ears or anywhere you want natural protection from the elements..15 oz. Beeswax, coconut oil, sunflower oil, tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E), lanolin, titanium dioxide, peppermint oil, comfrey root extract, rosemary extract. BEESWAX - A natural wax made by bees in the cell walls of honeycombs. Beeswax is a natural emulsifier used in cosmetics. Adds a wonderful natural smell and color, and helps to seal and protect the skin when used to moisturize.

1.0 out of 5 stars Careful if you burn easily, January 26, 2008

While I have loved Burt's Bees products for years, I would not sleep well at night if I didn't write this review/warning.

I have very sensitive-to-the-sun lips and I thought I had found the promised land when I found Lifeguard's Choice! However, I used it for one day while on vacation in Puerto Rico and was sorry for the rest of the trip. I was burned to a crisp. I have since contacted the company to see if the product indeed contains SPF and sure enough it does not (as SPF compounds are not organic - understandably). Though it never claims to contain SPF on the label, it does claim to be weatherproofing. I'm not sure the title of "Lifeguard's Choice" is quite accurate.

I also find it disappointing and a bit misleading that when I did a search for "lip balm spf" on the Amazon search this product appeared. Careful Amazon.

I still love Burt's Bees - I just read the labels more carefully now. Lesson learned.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great formula, but doesn't look good, February 15, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Lifeguard's Choice Weatherproofing Lip Balm - 0.15 oz - Stick (Health and Beauty)

I tried this lip balm after having used the original Beeswax Lip Balm for quite some time. It's a very good formula, and it's great for being in the snow or for water sports. What I didn't like is that it leaves a sheer white layer on your lips, it doesn't go on clear. If you don't care about how your lips look and you want a product that will work very well, I recommend it. But if you do care, I recommend the original one.

This review is from: Lifeguard's Choice Weatherproofing Lip Balm - 0.15 oz - Stick (Health and Beauty)

I love Burt's Bees beeswax lip balm for use during the day. When I acquired BB's Lifeguard's Choice Lip Balm, I discovered the best way to use it: at night! Because it will discolor your lips, I put it on at night as sort of an intense nightly treatment for my lips. Sure, I'm not getting the benefit of outdoor wear, but it works great for me like this.
