How to Use

UVSunSafe Band Transition

Directions for use:

  1. Open the package, take out one band, and close the package immediately.
  2. Fasten the band around your wrist, with the printed side up.
  3. Apply sunscreen over all areas of exposed skin and over the band.
  4. When exposed to sunlight, the band immediately turns bright purple to indicate it has been activated.
  5. When the band fades to light pink, it is recommended to reapply sunscreen on your body and on the band.
  6. When the band turns pale yellow, it is recommended to cover up or get out of the sun.

The colors of the ink used on the band were chosen to help you recognize each transition. When ‘SunSense’ disappears, it indicates it’s time to reapply sunscreen (step 5). When the Sun Symbols and ‘UV’ disappear, it indicates it is time to get out of the sun (step 6).

Note: A partially-used band, when re-exposed to the sun, starts monitoring UV rays from the point it was at when you last took it out of the sunlight. Use only one band a day per person, and then discard it.

For best results, please apply sunscreen to the band BEFORE it is fully exposed to the sunlight.

The band is calibrated to work only with sunscreen of SPF 15 or higher. For more information about the UV Index Scale, please click here. For more information about UV Rays, please click here.

Warning: This product does not contain a sunscreen and does not protect against sunburn. Repeated exposure of unprotected skin to the sun may increase the risk of premature skin aging, skin cancer, and other harmful effects to the skin, even if no sunburn occurs. The use of a UV warning wristband combined with limiting sun exposure, wearing protective clothing, and using sunscreens may reduce the risks of sun exposure. Such protective measures cannot eliminate these risks altogether. Store in a dark place at room temperature.
