SPOTMYUV 16-Pack UV Stickers for Sunscreen with Patented Dermatrue SPF Sensing Technology

Unfortunately we only used 2 spots from this large pack as on the first day the cleaners stole them from our hotel room. The one day we used them they were great. So much so because of these stickers we went through 4 bottles of sun cream in 9 days. They really make you aware of how quickly your sun cream comes off. We were in Turkey with temperatures of 36-40 degrees, because of these spots we didn’t burn at all. They might seem expensive but I think 100% worth it, just so you don’t burn. They go really clear where you can’t see them then bright purple. Just wish we had a chance to use them on our holiday.

This is my second time buying these because I love them so much! They work super well and really help keep me from overdoing it in the sun. So easy to use and they stay on all day. A package lasts quite a while too. Must have for summer, must have for traveling!

So after a holiday abroad and the good weather back home, I used these every day and my LB has never burned. Pop one on in the morning before going in the sun and apply sun cream as usual and the spot will go clear then we are good to go! I wish I had know about these sooner! What I really love is that my LB is more aware of sun safety and will actually ask for more cream on if he notices the colour begin to change. Before it was like wrestling with an octopus getting him to put it on 🤣. Definitely recommend and have to my family and friends as well as anyone who asked “what is that wee spot?” 👌🏻

The first time we tried this product out, we couldn’t get them to work. Like, 2 minutes in the sun and it showed we needed to reapppy. I joked with my wife that “big sunscreen” was up to something. Lo and behold we ended up getting burned. Turns out sunscreen can expire, and it just so happened our tube was past it’s date! We tried again with a new tube and it worked. These are a life saver with kids and we 100% will include them on our packing list in the future.

I was very impressed with this UV Detection stickers. The most important thing to know about this is A. FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS! and B. They work better with sunscreen CREAM / LOTION vs. the spray stuff. I have used it with both. The spots themselves are very adhesive (especially on clean skin) and will last a whole day of sun / water activities. I used them for our field day (I'm a teacher) and recently on a cruise vacation and if anything, they are a great physical reminder to apply sunscreen. So directions state that you must cover the spot and let it sit for 30 seconds FIRST, then rub it in with the rest of your sunscreen. Then you step out into the sun and it should change color. (I didn't realize this at first. When I was in my house, it was still purple, but it immediately changed upon stepping outside of my house.) As I mentioned, lotion works better than spray - the ones I cover with sunscreen lotion tend to get pretty clear, but spray sunscreen stays a very light purple - hence why the four stars. (If they can improve the technology to respond better to spray sunscreen, I would give it five stars! Although, maybe I should reconsider using spray sunscreen...) That is also important to remember for the level of UV protection - a sunscreen with a lower SPF will never turn your spot fully clear, you need at least a 40 to see that protection (and that is what doctors recommended anyway.) Once applied, my spot never returned fully purple - it would gradually become more of a deep magenta, but again, perhaps it was because I was reapplying. In any event, a great purple for those of us who tend to burn under the rays of the sun!
