What makes Cancer Council sunscreens unique?
Cancer Council sunscreens are specifically developed to suit Australian conditions, where UV levels are particularly intense. The Cancer Council range offers products with high SPF ratings (SPF50 and SPF50+) that provide broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays. Many formulations are water-resistant for up to four hours, making them suitable for swimming and outdoor activities. The range includes everyday sunscreen options as well as specialised products like facial sunscreen and sports sunscreen, catering to different needs and preferences. Cancer Council's commitment to sun protection is reflected in their comprehensive product range.
Are Cancer Council products suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, Cancer Council offers several specialised sensitive skin sunscreens. These include fragrance-free and paraben-free options that minimise the risk of irritation. For those with particularly sensitive skin, the Cancer Council range includes gentle formulations that combine sun protection with skin-friendly ingredients. Some products in the range also incorporate moisturising ingredients that help hydrate the skin while providing UV protection. When shopping our Cancer Council products online, look for products labelled as suitable for sensitive skin to find the most appropriate option if you have sensitive skin.
How should I apply Cancer Council sunscreen for maximum protection?
For optimal protection, apply Cancer Council sunscreen generously and evenly to all exposed skin areas 20 minutes before sun exposure. Adults typically need about a teaspoon of product for each arm, leg, front of body, back of body, and face (including neck and ears). Reapplication is essential every two hours, or more frequently if swimming, sweating, or towel-drying. We offer various formulations including easy-to-apply options for children's sunscreen that can make the application process more manageable for families. Remember that even water-resistant sunscreens need regular reapplication to maintain effectiveness. We also recommend applying after sun care products if you’ve just come back from extended exposure to the sun.
Can children use Cancer Council sunscreen products?
Cancer Council features products specifically designed for children's sensitive skin. These Kid's’ sunscreens provide the same high SPF50+ protection while being gentle enough for young skin. Many options available are fragrance-free and paraben-free, reducing the potential for irritation. For infants under six months, it's generally recommended to keep them out of direct sunlight rather than applying sunscreen.
