LET’S FAQ
Why do I need this?
It’s easy to forget about protecting your (hot) body from the sun, especially on days you aren’t spending at the beach. UVA rays cause skin ageing and can penetrate even glass and clouds, and UVB rays cause redness and sunburn. No matter the weather or the season, your skin is exposed to these rays, which is why you need sunscreen for your body every day. My SPF50+ Hydrating Body Lotion has broad spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays, and will also keep your skin quenched. I’m your daily defence and a damn sexy SPF.

Is it “reef-safe”?
You might have seen the term “reef-safe” floating around sunscreen products, but this isn’t actually a regulated claim. The reef-friendly concept is related to a Hawaiian Act that states oxybenzone and octinoxate are harmful to the reef and prohibits these ingredients. The good news is that I do not contain these ingredients.
Is it water resistant?
Yes, I am 80 minutes water resistant. Remember to reapply often after towelling, sweating heavily, or swimming.

Is it cruelty-free and vegan?
Yes, all of my products are cruelty-free. I contain beeswax which means I would not call myself a vegan.
Is it safe for use during pregnancy?
The short answer is, yes. Did you know your skin is more sensitive to the sun during pregnancy? So there’s never been a better time to protect your skin. If you’re unsure, always consult your healthcare professional.

Is this safe to use on my kids?
The Cancer Council recommends minimising the use of sunscreen on babies less than 6 months of age. For babies older than six months, sunscreen should be used as the last line of defence after avoiding direct sunlight, putting on covering clothing, a hat and shade. If you’re unsure, always consult your healthcare professional.

Can I use this on my face?
You sure can, babe. Especially if you’ll be heavily exercising or sweating. Day to day, you might prefer something specifically formulated for the skin on your face that is made specifically for sitting under makeup.

How much should I apply and how often?
Use at least 5ml per limb (which is the equivalent of a teaspoon) or about a shot glass for your whole body. It’s more than you think, so don’t be shy. More is more when it comes to sun protection.
Apply me at least 20 minutes before sun exposure. Then reapply every 2 hours or more often if you’ve been swimming, towelling, or heavily sweating.
