After Babé mineral SPF became my favourite for the face, I also tried their SPF for lips and cheeks in the shade Mocca.

What the brand says

  • A tinted balm for lips and cheeks with SPF 50 and protection against UVA and UVB rays, blue light and infrared radiation.
  • Squalane and hyaluronic acid to hydrate and peptides for smoother-looking fine lines.
  • A healthy, radiant finish with subtle colour, an easy-to-spread texture, instant volume and shine.
  • For daily use and all skin types, including sensitive; also available in Cherry and Nude.

My experience

Mocca is a lovely colour, a warm, natural nude that goes with any make-up, and the shine is lovely. The texture is OK, but a little sticky.

The smell and taste are typical of SPF, and there's no hiding that. Even so, I'd buy it again, because it's hard to find a lip product with such high protection that looks this pretty.

Tip: I buy all my Babé products from the Spanish online pharmacy Care to Beauty, where they're much cheaper than here.

Who is it for

For anyone who wants to protect their lips from the sun without giving up colour and shine. If sticky glosses or the taste of sunscreen bother you, this won't convert you.
