We do not recommend "jane iredale - LipDrink Lip Balm" because it does not provide good UVA protection. UVA sun rays don't burn the skin, but they still lead to photoaging and hyperpigmentation.

This lip product is a mineral sunscreen. It uses titanium dioxide for sun protection. Titanium dioxide almost never irritates the skin or stings eyes, but it can leave a white cast.

What does the product description say?

Sheer, peachy pink How to Use Apply Jane Iredale LipDrink Lip Balm to lips for moisture and sun protection.

Source: Naturisimo

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: ricinus communis seed oil, octyldodecyl neopentanoate.

Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).

octyldodecyl neopentanoate 4.7% - 7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

An emollient that helps soften the skin. Often used to stabilize other ingredients, for example, sunscreen

persea gratissima oil 2% - 3%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

An emollient that helps soften the skin and could be helpful in repairing its barrier function

ricinus communis seed oil 4.9% - 7.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A plant oil that can help soften the skin. It might be helpful in calming down inflammation, but solid research is lacking. Is often used in lip products to create the needed product consistency

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (camellia sinensis leaf extract) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.

camellia sinensis leaf extract 1.2% - 1.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation

coffea arabica seed extract 0.5% - 1.2%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals in skin

daucus carota sativa seed oil 2.4% - 3.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant oil that might help neutralize free radicals and have an anti-bacterial effect

Sun protection

This product does not offer good protection against UVA rays.

This product can be considered "reef safe" because it does not contain the UV filters (oxybenzone and octinoxate) that can be harmful to coral reefs when present in the water in high concentrations.

titanium dioxide 1.75%

Irritation risk:

UVA I protection: UVA II protection: UVB protection: Photo stable: Ingredient type Mineral

Works as a UV filter when used in high concentrations. It is photostable and is effective mostly against the UVB light, with some protection in the UVA range. In small concentrations, used for its ability to improve the color of cosmetic products. Is usually well tolerated by the skin
