How to use
- Apply at least 1/4 tsp of sunscreen on face and neck, use brush to blend in, making sure to cover all exposed areas on face and neck.
- If you're not wearing a hat, don't forget the ears and back of neck.
- Use more product than usual to ensure full coverage as some sunscreen may stick to the brush.
- For best protection, apply sunscreen with your hands first to achieve even full coverage and then use the brush to blend in.
- Always supervise children when using the brush to ensure proper application.
- Made from synthetic, vegan bristles.
HOT TIP: Use the brush or a beauty blender to reapply SPF.

How to clean and store
Wash brush regularly, at least once a week.
Use warm soapy water or brush cleaner to remove sunscreen residue. Avoid submerging the entire brush head, and allow it to air dry completely.
DETAILED STEPS:
- Rinse the brush: Run the brush head under lukewarm water to loosen any sunscreen residue.
- Apply cleanser: Use a small amount of gentle soap or brush cleaner on your palm.
- Swirl and lather: Gently swirl the brush bristles in your palm to create a lather.
- Rinse thoroughly: Rinse the bristles under running water until the water runs clear.
- Repeat if needed: For very dirty brushes, you may need to repeat steps 1-4.
- Shape and dry: Gently squeeze out excess water and reshape the bristles. Lay the brush flat on a clean towel to air dry.
- Avoid submerging: Do not submerge the entire brush head in water, as this can damage the glue that holds the brush together.
- Store properly: Store the brush in a clean, dry place to prevent bacterial growth.
