SPF 45 Sunscreen

It’s the SPF 45 that keeps us covered from the first wave to the last. SPF 45 sunscreen is what we grab when the sun’s really shining and the day’s just getting started. It provides broad spectrum SPF 45 protection against both UVA and UVB rays, helping to shield your skin from harmful UV exposure that can cause early skin aging, dark spots, and wrinkles. Our formulas are lightweight making them suitable for all skin types—including sensitive skin—and designed not to clog pores or leave a white residue. Perfect for long beach days, backyard BBQs, or daily outdoor activities, broad spectrum SPF 45 sunscreen supports overall skin health while delivering reliable, non comedogenic sun protection. Simple, effective, and skin-friendly—SPF 45 sunscreen just works to keep your skin safe and radiant.

SPF 45 Sunscreen

To get the best results from your SPF 45 sunscreen, proper application is key. Start by misting a generous amount on all exposed skin about 15 minutes before sun exposure. Don’t forget easy-to-miss spots like your ears, neck, and the tops of your feet. If you’re swimming or sweating, reapply every 80 minutes, and always reapply immediately after towel drying. Even if you’re not getting wet, make sure to reapply at least every two hours to maintain effective sun protection. For maximum defense, pair your SPF 45 sunscreen with other sun protection measures—like seeking shade, wearing hats and sunglasses, and choosing protective clothing. By following these simple steps, you can enjoy your time outdoors while keeping your skin safe and healthy.

Tips for Broad Spectrum SPF 45 Daily Use

For everyday sun protection, pick an broad spectrum SPF 45 sunscreen that’s water resistant and offers a lightweight feeling. Make sure to cover all exposed areas, including often-overlooked spots like the tops of your ears and the bridge of your nose. If you have sensitive skin or are applying sunscreen to children, choose a gentle, non-irritating formula for extra peace of mind. Consistent use is the key to keeping your skin looking and feeling its best, no matter the season.

We've Got Answers

Is 45 SPF Sunscreen Good?

Yes, broad spectrum SPF 45 sunscreen isa great choice for strong, reliable sun protection. It offers a little more coverage than SPF 30 or SPF 40, making it ideal for long days at the beach, outdoor workouts, or any time you’re planning to be in the sun for hours. With broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection, 45 SPF sunscreen helps defend against sunburn and early signs of skin damage.Our Original SPF Sunscreen Face Mist is a daily go-to for a sheer and lightweight protection that will make you feel good on your skin, so you’ll actually want to wear them every day.For most people, SPF 45 is more than good—it’s just right.

Will I Still Tan With SPF 45 During Sun Exposure?

Yes, you can still get a tan while wearing broad spectrum SPF 45 sunscreen. Sunscreen doesn’t block 100% of the sun’s rays; it filters them to help reduce the risk of burning and long-term skin damage. SPF 45 gives you strong broad-spectrum protection, but a gradual, safer tan can still happen over time. The big difference is that your skin is far less likely to burn, peel, or feel fried after a long day outside. So if you’re chasing that sun-kissed look, SPF 45 lets you enjoy the outdoors while keeping your skin protected and healthy.

How Long Does SPF 45 Protect Against UVB Rays on the Face?

SPF 45 sunscreen usually protects your face for about two hours, but reapplication is key if you’re out in the sun. Swimming, sweating, or even just wiping your face with a towel can wear it away faster. For the best protection, apply a generous, even layer 15 minutes before heading outside, and reapply every 40 minutes or sooner if you’re in and out of the water. Our lightweight SPF 45 formulas are made for everyday wear, so you can use them on your face without feeling greasy. Keep it close and touch up often to stay protected all day.
