Why your current SPF is failing you on the run.
Most sunscreen was designed for the beach, not the track. The moment real effort starts, the sweat kicks in and ordinary SPF gives up. By the time you notice, the damage is done.
Gone by mile three.
Stinging eyes mid-stride.
Too heavy to bother.
Why runners choose LifeJacket.
- Stays put through 10K of sweat, not just the warm-up.
- Absorbs in seconds. No grease, no residue, no sticky feeling.
- No eye sting at mile 3. Or mile 6. Or the finish line.

HOW TO USE
Apply.
Use about one teaspoon per limb (arms, legs), one for your face and neck, one for your front and one for your back. Apply 20-30 minutes before heading out, giving it time to absorb properly.

HOW TO USE
Re-apply.
Re-apply every 2-3 hours, especially after towelling off, sweating or swimming. Every couple of hours and you're covered.

HOW TO USE
