Sunscreen & Lip Salve
Read More

Ski and snowboard formula sunscreen, sun cream / lotion or sun block and lip salve / balm are specifically designed for high-altitude, cold-weather conditions where UV exposure is intense. Ski formula sunscreens usually have a high SPF (50+) because both UVA and UVB rays are stronger at higher altitudes. Unlike regular sunscreens, ski and snowboard sun block is formulated to stay effective in freezing temperatures and resist sweating from physical activity. Many ski sunscreens are extra thick or contain waxy components to prevent windburn and last through snow exposure. Non-greasy and quick absorption formulas are designed to avoid clogging pores and feeling heavy, making the sunscreen comfortable for active use. Some formulas use zinc oxide or titanium dioxide as physical blockers for immediate protection and better performance in extreme conditions. Ski-specific formulas frequently contain hydrating elements like aloe, vitamin E, or shea butter to prevent skin from drying out in the cold.
