DermUV

UV Protection for Golf

An average 18-hole round is ~4 hours of continuous outdoor exposure — often spanning the UV peak window of 11am–3pm.

Recommended gear

For golf, DermUV recommends SPF 50+ and a reapply interval around 90 minutes, adjusted for sweat, water, and reflection.

Checklist

SPF 50+ on face, ears, neck, forearms, calves UPF 50 polo or sun sleeves Wide-brim or full-brim golf hat Polarized golf-specific sunglasses Lip balm SPF 30 — easy to forget on the course
