Sunny Face Essentials Bundle

Q. What is Complexion Protection?
A. Complexion Protection is a trademarked feature in Bondi Sands Sunny Face products. It helps to maintain calm, clear-looking skin and won’t compromise the skin barrier or cause breakouts. The dermatologically tested formulas are oil-free and non-comedogenic, with a lightweight, breathable texture designed to help prevent clogged pores.

Q. Is Sunny suitable for sensitive skin?
A. Yes. Sunny is dermatologically tested and formulated to be gentle for use on sensitive skin. Products in the Sunny face range, including Sunny Spritz, contain our Complexion Protection™ formula, which helps maintain calm, clear-looking skin by supporting the skin barrier and helping to minimise irritation. It is also infused with Vitamin E and Australian Hibiscus to leave the skin feeling moisturised. However, if you’re unsure whether a product is suitable for you, it’s best to consult your doctor or dermatologist.

Q. Should I wear sunscreen every day?
A. Yes. We strongly encourage daily sunscreen use because UV rays can still reach the skin, even during cooler months or on cloudy days. Daily suncare is easy to incorporate into your routine with Sunny. Simply apply as the final step in your morning skincare routine and remember to reapply throughout the day.

Q. What does SPF 50+ mean?
A. SPF or ‘Sun Protection Factor’ is a rating that refers to a theoretical amount of time you can stay in the sun and be protected without getting burned, compared to unprotected skin. For example, SPF 50 theoretically allows you to stay in the sun with less risk of sunburn for fifty times longer than you would without sunscreen. But real life is not like a lab, and you still need to reapply your sunscreen every two hours, avoid direct sunlight as much as possible and to make sure that you're protected. Direct sun exposure can change the texture and elasticity in your skin, which can contribute to premature skin aging like wrinkles.

Q. What is very high protection sunscreen?
A. Very high protection SPF refers to sunscreen that helps protect the skin from both UVA and UVB rays. UVA rays reach the middle layer of the skin (the dermis) and contribute to skin ageing, while UVB rays are linked to burning of the outer layer of the skin (the epidermis).

Q. What are UVA and UVB rays?
A. Ultraviolet A (UVA) is present all day, year-round. Even when it’s cloudy, UVA can penetrate the middle layer of the skin (the dermis), contributing to skin ageing and wrinkles, and can even pass through glass. Ultraviolet B (UVB) is more prevalent in sunny conditions and is associated with burning of the outer layer of the skin (the epidermis), causing redness. UVB has been strongly linked to some cancers. While sun exposure can contribute to Vitamin D production, it’s important to wear sunscreen daily to help protect against sun damage.

Q. How are Bondi Sands SPF products tested and regulated?
A. All Bondi Sands SPF products, including the Sunny range, are tested in line with UK Cosmetics Regulation (retained EU Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009) to ensure they meet industry standards. We work closely with our manufacturing and testing partners throughout the pre-market compliance process to ensure product claims are supported by robust evidence, including validated SPF, broad-spectrum, and water-resistant testing where applicable.

We are proudly PETA-approved, and our products are not tested on animals at any stage of development.
