Does all lip balm protect against the sun?

Not all, you should look carefully before you buy. If the label says SPF (Sun Protection Factor) - then a number, it means it protects you from the sun for a time. The most common SPF for lip balm is 15, but there may be higher ones out there if you are worried about sunburn. I use SPF 15 on my lips and I burn easily, I never have whilst wearing it.

Does the SPF count?

"The Sun Protection Factor (SPF) displayed on the sunscreen label ranges from 2 to as high as 50 and refers to the product's ability to screen or block out the sun's harmful rays. For example, if you use a sunscreen with an SPF 15, you can be in the sun 15 times longer that you can without sunscreen before burning. Consumers need to be aware that SPF protection does not increase proportionally with an increased SPF number. While an SPF of 2 will absorb 50% of ultraviolet radiation, an SPF of 15 absorbs 93% and an SPF of 34 absorbs 97%." from http://www.melanomafoundation.org/prevention/facts.htm


What rays does SPF block?

Should be UVA and UVB. Read the labels, and use at least SPF 15 up to SPF 30 if you are very fair or freckle easily.
