a question

Familiar?
We fixed that.

Three things that get in the way.

  1. The big bottle won't fit in a pocket.

    A 200ml bottle won't go in shorts, a jersey or a jacket pocket, so it stays in the car or the bag.

    The fix

    Fits in your pocket.

    30ml capacity. Small enough for running shorts, cycling jerseys, or a hip belt.

  2. One coat won't last the day.

    Sunscreen needs topping up as the day goes on, and you can't top up from a bottle you left behind.

    The fix

    Enough for a full day.

    Small enough to take anywhere, so reapplying mid-run, mid-ride, or mid-hike takes seconds. No excuses for skipping it.

  3. Single-use bottles are a waste.

    Little travel bottles get used twice on holiday and then thrown away.

    The fix

    Refill it. Don't bin it.

    Reusable aluminium, instead of a plastic miniature you'd use once and throw away.

Why we made it

HOW TO USE.

  1. Fill.

    Fill to the top and secure the lid. You've got enough for top-ups through the day: morning run, dog walk, whatever's next.

  2. Reapply.

    A teaspoon covers face, neck and ears. Top up at least every two hours, and after swimming, sweating or towelling.

  3. Pro tip.

    Clean it out with warm water between refills, and let it dry with the lid off.

IN THEIR WORDS.

GOOD TO KNOW.

Which sunscreens can I put in it?

Any of our sunscreens, though it works best with the Sun Gels.

How much does it hold?

30ml, which is about six top-ups for your face, neck and ears.

What's it made of?

100% aluminium, with a screw-top seal. It weighs about 10g empty.

Who is it for?

Anyone out for more than a couple of hours who doesn't want to carry the big bottle: walkers, riders, golfers and hikers.

Does it come filled or alongside anything?

No, it's a single, empty aluminium bottle, ready for you to fill.

Can it be put in the dishwasher?

Absolutely. We want you to be able to use this again and again.

When will I get my order?

We try to get every order out the same day up until 4pm during the week. From then, it usually takes 2-3 working days to arrive.

Where do you ship?

We ship to the UK, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands using a Royal Mail tracked service.
