Popular Q&A's for Body Sunscreens

1. What SPF should I use for my body?

It's recommended to use a broad-spectrum SPF of 30 or higher for your body. If you are spending extended periods outdoors or engaging in sports or water activities, choose a water-resistant formula and reapply frequently.

2. What are the benefits of using a natural body sunscreen?

Natural body sunscreens SPF30 and higher offer broad-spectrum physical protection from UVA & UVB rays without harsh chemicals that can harm coral reefs or irritate your skin. At Clean Nectarine you can also find lightweight facial sunscreens in clear or tinted sunscreen formulations specifically designed for the face.

3. How much sunscreen should I apply to my body?

For an adult, the recommended application is 5ml (approximately one teaspoon) for each arm, leg, body front, body back and face (including neck and ears). That equates to a total of 35ml (approximately seven teaspoons) for a full body application. Remember Sunscreen is only one part of sun protection. Always wear protective clothing, hats and sunglasses when exposed to the sun, and stay in the shade where possible. Prolonged high-risk sun exposure should be avoided. Frequent reapplication and use in accordance with the directions is required for effective sun protection. Always read the sunscreen label and use only as directed.
