Get ready for the 2025 Australian summer with our ultimate sun safety guide. Discover why UV levels are rising, how to choose the best sunscreen for your skin, and the essential steps to protect yourself every day. From mineral zinc sunscreens to sport-ready SPF 50+, here’s everything Aussies need to stay safe, confident, and sun-strong this summer.

There’s nothing better than long days outdoors — beach trips, backyard games, surf sessions, and exploring with the people you love most. But as summer is coming, it’s time to think about sunlight, UV exposure, and smart protection for every member of the family.

Did you know mosquitoes are attracted to certain people more than others? From your breath and body heat to your skin chemistry and even your blood type, mozzies use a range of cues to find their favourite targets.

That’s why we created Sun Zapper Pure Zinc Anti‑Mozzie—a natural, reef-safe formula powered by citronella to help repel mosquitoes and keep you bite-free.

In an age where we increasingly turn to social media for health tips, skincare trends, and lifestyle “hacks,” there’s a darker undercurrent to be wary of: misinformation. The Skin Cancer Foundation’s article “Skin Health Misinformation: The Dark Side of Social Influencers” explores how influencers can sometimes become vectors for dangerous myths—particularly in the realm of sun protection, tanning, and skin cancer.

Mineral sun protection meets mozzie defense with Pure Zinc Anti Mozzie Sunscreen—25% zinc oxide, citronella oil, water resistant, and family safe.

We all know sunscreen is a must for protecting our skin, but even the most sun-conscious people make mistakes that leave them vulnerable to damage. The good news? A few small tweaks to your routine can make a huge difference. Here are the most common sunscreen slip-ups — and how to avoid them with Sun Zapper.

UVA and UVB rays each pose different risks to your skin. UVA rays contribute to premature aging, UVB rays cause sunburn and increase cancer risk. To stay safe in the sun, always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen like Sun Zapper to ensure you're protected against both UVA and UVB rays, and remember to reapply regularly.

Let’s be honest — reading a sunscreen label can feel like trying to crack a secret code. Broad spectrum? SPF 50? Water-resistant for 80 minutes? What does it all really mean?

Australia has some of the harshest sun conditions in the world — and we rely on sunscreen to protect us. But what if the sunscreen you’re using isn’t doing the job it claims to?

When you think of sun protection, you probably imagine sunny days spent on the beach. But did you know that your skin is still at risk on cloudy and overcast days?

Sunburn is more than redness—it’s skin damage with lasting risks. Protect yourself this summer with shade, SPF, and Sun Zapper’s zinc-based sunscreens for safe, healthy sun time.

Zinc sunscreen, also called mineral sunscreen, is like your skin's personal bodyguard against the sun's evil rays. Think of it as a tiny mirror on your skin that's like, "Nope, Sun, you ain't getting through here!"
