Directions for use

Apply liberally at least 20 minutes prior to sun exposure. Do not rub in. Reapply every 2 hours & after swimming or towelling.

Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Sunscreen is only one part of sun protection: also cover up, wear a broad-brimmed hat and sunglasses, and seek shade. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure. Frequent use and re-application in accordance with directions is required for effective sun protection.

How to apply

On before, top up after.

Water resistance has limits. Four habits get you the protection on the bottle.

  1. Step 1: Step 1

    Before you go

    Put it on dry skin before you leave, ahead of the sweat and salt water.

  2. Step 2: Step 2

    Use plenty

    Cancer Council suggests around 35mL, about 7 teaspoons, for an adult's whole body. Most people use far less.

  3. Step 3: Step 3

    Cover the edges

    Ears, the back of your neck, the tops of your feet and your hairline are where people burn.

  4. Step 4: Step 4

    Go again

    Reapply every two hours, and after swimming, sweating or towel drying. Towels and wettie sleeves wipe it off.

FAQs

Extreme Zinc Lotion questions

What's the difference between Extreme Zinc Lotion and Sports Mesh?

Both are SPF 50+ and 4 hours water resistant. Extreme Zinc Lotion has 20% zinc oxide plus three other filters. Sports Mesh has no zinc: it uses five other sunscreen filters in a light, non-greasy lotion.

Is it waterproof?

Nothing is waterproof, sunscreen included. It's rated 4 hours water resistant. Still reapply every two hours, and after swimming, sweating or towel drying.

Does it go on white?

It's designed to disappear as you rub it in. On deeper skin tones, take a little longer working it in.

Is it vegan?

Yes, and it's fragrance free and paraben free.

Can children use it?

Yes, children over 6 months.

Is it reef safe?

We don't use the term "reef safe", because there's no Australian standard for it. What we can tell you is exactly what's in it: the active ingredients and full ingredient list are in the label information on this page.

Where is Sun Zapper made?

Right here in Australia. We're an Aussie-owned company and we've been making zinc sunscreen at home since 1995.
