THE FULL BEACH CYCLE
“THE PATCH STARTED TURNING PURPLE AGAIN”
S's California review is the entire beach day, timestamped: clear in the car behind UV glass. Purple stepping into the sun. Semi-clear once the sunblock went on. Then the beach — in and out of the water — “the patch started turning purple again, signaling it was time for more sunblock. In a minute, the patch was clear once more. SunnyPatch is incredibly effective at alerting us when to reapply sunscreen!” One sticker refereeing the whole day.
Stick it on skin
Arm or leg — somewhere the sun actually hits. Peels on like a temporary tattoo, easy off at day’s end.
Sunscreen over everything
Lather your kid AND the patch. It now wears the exact same protection their skin does.
Watch the color
Clear = protected. Purple = UV is getting through — reapply. Check after swims: sunscreen wears off faster wet.
Easy to Apply and Remove
Peel, stick, done. Comes off just as easily when it's time for a new one — no residue, no fuss.

WHAT’S ACTUALLY ON THEIR ARM
NO OILS. NO INGREDIENT LIST. ONE COLOR-CHANGING LAYER.
SunnyPatch is a photochromic sticker: a material layer that reacts to UV light. Clear when your sunscreen is doing its job, purple when UV is getting through.
It goes on skin like a temporary tattoo, wears the same sunscreen your child does, and reads out the one thing you can’t see: whether that sunscreen is still working. Nothing absorbed, nothing ingested — peel it off at the end of the day.

SUNNYPATCH IS PERFECT IF…
Beach days are the burn days
In-and-out of water is exactly when sunscreen fails silently. The patch calls each round: purple after the swim, clear after the reapply — S's review, play by play.
Pool season, same problem
Chlorine or salt, the wear-off is the same. Water-resistant patch, same signal.
Two kids, one parent, zero clocks
Stop timing reapplications. The kids' arms carry the timers now.
Holiday sun is stronger than home sun
New latitude, same instrument. The patch reads UV, not the calendar.
Sand, towels, chaos
It's a sticker — no strap to lose, nothing floating away with the lilo.

BEACH DAYS, ON RECORD
Does it survive swimming?
Yes — water-resistant. Check it after swims and sweat: sunscreen wears off faster in water, which is exactly when you want the signal.
One patch for a full beach day?
Yes, it works as long as they're in the sun. Reapply sunblock whenever it goes purple.
Is it water resistant?
Yes. It stays effective during water activities — but reapply sunscreen and check the patch after swimming or sweating, since sunscreen wears off faster.
How long does it last when worn?
As long as your child is out in the sun. Reapply sunblock whenever it turns purple and carry on.
Is it safe?
Non-invasive and worn like a temporary tattoo. Dermatologically tested; the page rates it safe for all ages, babies included.
Why does it stay clear in the car?
Car glass blocks most UV, so the patch stays clear — that’s it working, not failing. Step outside and watch it change.
How long will shipping take?
Orders dispatch same day; usually 3–5 days to the USA, Canada, Australia and Europe.
Do you offer discounts?
Multi-packs are the main way — see the pack picker below. We also run regular sales.
What if it doesn’t work for us?
30-day money-back guarantee. One beach day is usually all the test you need.
