All About Sun Patches
No! When used with conventional UPF 30 or higher sunscreen, Sun Patches will not leave tan lines. After you apply Sun Patches on clean, dry skin, use sunscreen as you would normally to protect surrounding skin and prevent tan lines.
Yes! We are sunscreen’s best friend! Sunscreen should not be applied underneath Sun Patches but should be applied and used as directed after Sun Patches are placed on your clean, dry skin. (check out our list of favorite sunscreens here) No eye sting!
We use a high grade of silicone that acts as a physical sunblock - basically like wearing armor on your skin but a lot more comfortable. Sun Patches block 99.8% of UVA + UVB rays and you only have to apply them once for that area to be protected all day!
Sun Patches are made with 100% silicone and use a silicone adhesive gel for maximum stick and all-day comfort. No additional chemicals added. Plus, this makes our patches reusable, hypoallergenic, and it helps prevent water-loss from the skin to lock-in moisture where you need it most!
To reuse Sun Patches, rinse gently under warm water and let air-dry, adhesive side up. Once dry, store your patches on the liner they came on until your next use. Sun Patches are designed to be used up to 10x plus when used and cared for as directed. If you have any additional questions, please contact us!
Sun Patches are hypoallergenic and designed to work with sensitive skin. If you are concerned, you can test your Sun Patches by wearing them for a short period or on a test patch of skin. We use a 100% silicone adhesive that is non-irritating and easy to remove. Sun Patches also prevent water loss when worn, so after removal you may notice your skin has locked in the moisture.
Hell Yes! Sun Patches were designed specifically with beauties like you in mind! Simply apply your Sun Patch on the area you are concerned about for all-day, worry-free protection. And don’t forget to also apply your SPF after Sun Patches are applied.
According to skincancer.org “Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) indicates how much UV radiation (both UVB and UVA) a fabric allows to reach your skin. UPF measures the amount of UV radiation that can penetrate fabric and reach your skin.
Sun Protection Factor, or SPF, is based on the time it takes for UV-exposed skin to redden. Another important distinction: UPF measures both UVB and UVA rays, while SPF measures only UVB.”
Sun patches are UPF 50+ which means that they clock 99.8% of the sun’s rays. According to skincancer.org “A UPF of 30 to 49 offers very good protection, while UPF 50+ rates as excellent.”
We strongly believe that sun protection is essential for everyone. But for some of us, we need more than conventional sunscreen to protect extra sun-sensitive areas and that eye sting from SPF we get. We believe sun care and wellness are always fashionable and if you don’t believe us, check out @sun.patch to see how people like you are styling their patches AND protecting their skin.
