Besides the friend who had the growth removed recently, I know several other people who have had more than one growth removed from their faces. I have a neighbor in her 90s, and she used to play golf up in the mountains (5-6000 feet in elevation) in the morning, and lay out in the sun by the lake in the afternoon. She had all kinds of things removed. Like you, I now use sunscreen year round. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010426 Thu, 07 Mar 2019 05:28:11 +0000 Anonymous 2010426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A neighbor who was only outside to play golf as a younger woman has had cancer removed from her face several times. She really is hard to look at with only a little of her nose left and other parts gone. She said that she always wore a sun hat and was once a gorgeous blonde. It scared me into daily year-round sun block use. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010425 Thu, 07 Mar 2019 05:14:54 +0000 JAileen 2010425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lucy, how did you even know about the chubettes?! I only knew because Toronto girl mentioned them. They might be broadening my colors.</p> <p>Shevia, I think we both get lots of sun. SPF is so important. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010401 Thu, 07 Mar 2019 02:08:13 +0000 Jaime 2010401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes I am constantly trying to put balm with SPF on my lips and might need a set of chubettes too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010382 Thu, 07 Mar 2019 00:24:25 +0000 Lucy 2010382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I was visiting the US in December, I purchased the giant pack of Chubettes! I'm a big fan, and I'd never seen so many all in one place! It really was probably my fav thing I bought on the trip, lol. I agree it is uncanny how they all seem to look good on.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010381 Thu, 07 Mar 2019 00:14:52 +0000 JAileen 2010381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisaflex, DCT has spf of 20. If if works for you, that’s fantastic. And as far as Coppertone’s SPF 50, who knows how accurate that is. We’re out for hours when we’re birding, and I need all the SPF I can get.</p> <p>Torontogirl, oh I’m really having fun with the chubettes! The light brown ones are the ones the surprise me the most. They don’t look brown on. The only awful one is the orange one.</p> <p>Old Chic, I’ve never used Blistex. It’s good to know it has some SPF just in case. I’m glad it works for you.</p> <p>Elpgal, I can’t answer your question. If you find out, please let me know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010377 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 23:54:59 +0000 elpgal 2010377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are there oneswith physical sunblock you recommend?</p> <p>ETA: I see Anna beat me to it.

I have been using it all the time for, I don't know, at least 30 years. Put it on under lipstick and have never gotten a burn. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010375 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 23:51:41 +0000 Helena 2010375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Jaileen, I'm so glad you're enjoying it! I've been using many different colors; my favorite is still Super Strawberry though, but it's fun to test out all different ones.</p> <p>Lisa, which one was it you liked best?</p> <p>I'm going to look for the Coppertone balm; thanks for the reco! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010374 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 23:46:32 +0000 lisaflex 2010374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DCT in tub at cvs counter usually - cheap and has SPF! works great.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010363 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 22:12:43 +0000 JAileen 2010363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karen, I bought it at CVS. Unfortunately they don’t have it year round. It’s available on Amazon, too. It feels very neutral. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010361 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 22:09:09 +0000 karen13 2010361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>TFS! I am always on the hunt for high SPF lip balm that isn't yucky tasting or feeling. I like Aloe Gator in vanilla, but it is only 30 SPF. I use a Banana Boat Sport for skiing currently (50 SPF), and it is not too bad, but I will keep an eye out for the Coppertone. Did you buy it locally? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010315 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 19:39:08 +0000 JAileen 2010315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cardiff girl, as a kid, I used to sail on San Francisco Bay, and on mountain lakes while on vacation. The reflected light is definitely a killer. And back then sunscreen wasn’t very good. :(</p> <p>Janet, yes, please be careful. A friend of mine who skis and hikes a lot recently had an innocuous looking thing removed from the edge of her lip. She sent me some pretty gruesome pictures (one of when the growth had been removed but not yet sewn up). Oh man, I don’t want to go out without sunscreen! Her scar is at least three inches long. I think it’ll mostly disappear. She’s slathering it with something like petroleum jelly.</p> <p>Rachy, I use Aquaphor, too, but mostly for lips and hands before bed. My son’s pediatrician recommended it for cracked hands, and it works great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010312 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 19:11:44 +0000 rachylou 2010312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh lips do burn. I use Aquaphor normally. Will try the Coppertone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010311 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 19:05:33 +0000 Janet 2010311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lips absolutely burn, and they can be susceptible to skin cancer. I need SPF on my lips as well as the rest of my face (skin cancer runs in my family). So I will forgo some other aspect of a lip balm if it protects from sun damage. Thanks for the recommendations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010307 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 18:55:48 +0000 Cardiff girl 2010307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Spf for lips is essential if you go skiing or yachting as The reflected light can burn your lips and of course if you are prone to cold sores it’s a good idea as well Thanks for the recommendations . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lip-care-and-color#post-2010304 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 18:52:44 +0000 JAileen 2010304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Barbara, which lip balm do you use? </p> <p>Suntiger, yes, it didn’t even occur to me at first</p> <p>Lisa, it’s available on Amazon.

I finally figured out they were getting sunburned! I tried many lip balms with SPF, but I don’t like fragrances or flavors. I started using Coppertone’s lip balm with SPF 50, and it is a nice neutral balm. Then I put color over it. And thanks to Toronto girl, I ordered Clinique’s Chubette set of 20 mini lip colors. I’ve enjoyed trying different colors. I was surprised how many I like! </p>
