Hello Sunshine Sunscreen is a perfect natural sunscreen for babies and can safely be used from 6+ months to 99 years!
How much Hello Sunshine Sunscreen should I apply?
When applying sunscreen, you need at least one teaspoon per limb, one for the front of the body, one for the back and one for the head. A full body application should be at least 35mL or seven teaspoons.
When and how often should I apply Hello Sunshine Sunscreen?
We encourage the application of Hello Sunshine Sunscreen onto dry skin 20 minutes prior to sun exposure and then re-application every 2 hours and at regular intervals, especially after swimming, exercising and towel drying. Avoid prolonged sun exposure and wear protective eyewear & clothing. Avoid contact with eyes. Patch test first and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Is Hello Sunshine Sunscreen preservative-free?
Absolutely! We don’t use any chemical or synthetic preservatives in Hello Sunshine… and by that we mean Nothing. Zero. None. Nada. Zilch. Zip.
Does Hello Sunshine Sunscreen contain parabens?
Absolutely not. We don’t believe in using parabens within any of our product ranges. Parabens are possible endocrine disrupters and while they are what gives the sunscreen a smooth glide-on finish we believe we have been able to achieve this by using naturally based ingredients like beeswax and fractionated coconut oil.
Does Hello Sunshine Sunscreen stain clothing?
It should not stain clothes since it does not contain organic solar absorbers which are renowned for fabric staining. However, this is fabric-dependent, and we encourage you to test this for yourself as we cannot offer guarantees about clothes staining.
Is Hello Sunshine Sunscreen Nano or Non-Nano?
We have chosen a zinc oxide within our sunscreen that is a not a nano zinc oxide. However, the sunscreen may contain minute amounts of nanoparticles. To explain, all powders contain nanoparticles in small amounts, and every zinc oxide source will contain low concentrations of sub-nanoparticles, this has always been the case.
The zinc oxide that we use is called ‘micronised zinc oxide’, this means that it is not predominantly nano. We don’t believe other brands can ethically claim a zinc-based sunscreen is 100% non-nano. We know that our sunscreen has the best quality zinc available on the market with the lowest chance of nanoparticles. We have chosen the highest quality zinc oxide that we have been able to source for our sunscreen.
Is Hello Sunshine Sunscreen water-resistant?
Yes, but as per instructions needs to be re-applied frequently after swimming.
Is Hello Sunshine Sunscreen TGA tested and approved?
Yes, it sure is!
Is Hello Sunshine Sunscreen ‘reef-friendly’?
There is some scientific evidence that oxybenzone, a sunscreen active, could be contributing to coral bleaching. We don’t use oxybenzone in any of our products and we don’t use any oxybenzone in Hello Sunshine Natural Sunscreen.
Where is the vanilla scent derived from?
We use a GRAS-certified, food-grade vanilla extract in our Hello Sunshine Natural Sunscreen. It smells amazing.
What is the difference in consistency between the Hello Sunshine Sunscreen and Facestick?
The Facestick is much thicker in consistency to form the solid stick. This is perfect for easy application to the face. The Sunscreen in the tube is a thinner consistency to squeeze out of the tube and rub in easily into the skin.
This is perfect for easy application to the larger parts of the body. If you would like to see a demonstration of the difference between the two, we do have a video on Instagram which shows how they both apply to the skin.
