Product summary

We believe that "Banana Boat - Sport Performance Sunscreen Lip Balm SPF 50. Each" can provide reliable sun protection based on the ingredients listed. It can protect from both UVA and UVB rays. This is great news because not all sunscreens with SPF ratings give UVA protection. (UVA rays do not cause sunburn, but still damage our skin and lead to early aging).

This is a so-called "chemical" sunscreen. It means that it uses organic UV filters.
