Waxhead Zinc Oxide Lip Balm Sunscreen – Irregular Batch
This is the same trusted mineral lip sunscreen you know—just slightly imperfect. Each stick works exactly as designed, but you may notice a cracked tube, uneven fill, or minor texture changes due to heat or storage. It’s a great deal for anyone who prioritizes safe ingredients over perfect looks.
Why this sunscreen lip balm works
- SPF around 20: 10% non-nano zinc oxide protects lips from UVA/UVB and blue light.
- Simple formula: Only six edible-grade ingredients you can recognize.
- Engineered for action: Built for sun, saltwater, and wind. Doesn’t wash off easily.
- More than lip care: Works on cheeks, noses, scars, cuticles—anywhere that needs extra defense.
- Safe enough to eat: No fillers, synthetics, or petrochemicals.
- Eco-friendly: Reef-safe, cruelty-free, and free from plasticizers.
- Outdoors tough: Applies thick and visible. Ideal for kids and outdoor athletes.
What’s imperfect
- Some sticks have off-center fill or bubbles.
- Packaging may be dented, scratched, or cracked.
- Texture might feel slightly grainy or stiff due to heat variations.
Performance is unaffected. Every stick still offers strong mineral protection.
What you’ll notice
Day 1 – Lips feel shielded and soft without gloss. Balm stays through long outdoor sessions.
Day 7 – Less chapping in cold or wind. Some people use it on their nose or cheeks too.
Day 30 – It becomes your go-to. You stop thinking of it as “just for lips” and use it everywhere.
How to use
- Swipe gently onto lips until softened by body heat.
- Blend in with fingertips to reduce visible zinc if desired.
- Use sparingly—a little goes a long way.
- Reapply after meals, swimming, or wiping.

FAQs
Is this as effective as regular?
Yes. Only appearance or texture is altered. UV protection stays the same.
Will it leave white marks?
Yes, lightly. That’s physical zinc oxide at work. Blend it in for a softer look.
Baby safe?
Absolutely. All ingredients are edible-grade and safe for kids over 6 months.
How long does one stick last?
A few weeks to a month with daily use. Depends how much you layer on.
Waterproof?
Yes, it's built for surf and sweat. Still needs reapplying after meals or wiping.
Does it melt?
May soften above 85°F. If grainy, warm it briefly in your pocket. If soft, chill it for a few minutes.
Is it vegan?
No. Contains beeswax and lanolin, but it’s cruelty-free and ethically sourced.
All irregular lip balms are final sale.
