We're a woman-owned business with big goals.
Skin cancer is the most common and most preventable form of cancer and it is still on the rise.
Our mission is to end skin cancer, give those with skin conditions more options for protection, prevent UV related sun damage, and look good doing it!
OUR AWARD WINNING
PATENTED MATERIAL
Sun Patch blocks 98% of UVA/UVB rays with our innovative patented material, UPF 50+ zinc-oxide infused silicone.
Silicone is a material favored by medical professionals for it’s ability to act as a second-skin, and protect skin’s natural moisture barrier from harsh elements.
HOW WE COMPARE
- No sunscreen is waterproof, only water resistant. Even then, water resistant sunscreen still needs to be re-applied every 40-80 minutes.
- Sun Patches are waterproof because they do not break down or lose effectiveness in water. They can be applied once, and maintain their UPF 50+ rating all day!
- A common complaint with zinc sticks and clay are the mess, especially for kids! Sun Patches can be rubbed and touched and won't budge.
- We love zinc and clay for being a super clean ingredients! But when applied directly to the skin, it can be very drying. Sun Patches have zinc oxide infused into our patent pending silicone material, so it actually promotes hydration, giving your skin a drink of water.
- Not only is UPF fabric tape not made for the water, it's not reusable like Sun Patches.
- They can also be uncomfortable to remove from the skin, and have chemicals that are irritating.
- Sun Patches stick all day but remove gently and are hypoallergenic for even the most sensitive skin!
EXPERIENCE SUN PROTECTION LIKE NEVER BEFORE
OUR STORY
Zinc sticks were too messy for my daughter's easily burned cheeks, my dad was tired of reapplying sunscreen all day to his nose that was sensitive from skin cancer removal, and I wanted something waterproof that would cover my melasma during an entire day of wakeboarding.
3 years and countless prototypes later, Sun Patch was born.
