Common questions

Do I need sun protection for skiing?

Snow reflects up to 80% of UV rays, increasing exposure. High altitudes also intensify UV radiation, making SPF vital when out on the slopes.

Do you offer sun protection with moisturiser?

LifeJacket’s SPF 30 Daily Repair Moisturiser hydrates skin while providing protection.

How should I care for my skin when skiing?

Use a moisturising SPF to protect from UV and cold winds. The SPF 50+ Mineral Sun Stick is great for targeted protection on exposed areas like the nose and lips.

Are your products still effective in the cold?

LifeJacket’s formula remains effective in cold weather and won’t dry out the skin.
