Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the SPF of two test materials ChapStick Moisturizer, Classic Flavor and ChapStick Moisturizer, Strawberry Flavor using the methodology described in the International Standard Test Method. This static methodology also meets the requirements of the Australia/New Zealand standard.

Detailed Description

A single-center, randomized, evaluator blind, intra-individual comparison, no treatment and positive controlled clinical study to determine the SPF of two ChapStick sunscreen-containing lip balms as per ISO 24444:2010. For each participant, 4 test sites will have a random assignment number for up to two test materials, control standard, and minimal erythemal dose of unprotected skin (MEDu), with at least 3 of the test sites being utilized for application. All three test sites will be exposed to UV radiation at the expected MED and subsequently evaluated for erythema 16-24 hours after UV exposure.
