DermUV

UV Protection for Pool & swimming

Pool water reflects ~10% of UV and washes off sunscreen film fast. Chlorine accelerates SPF degradation.

Recommended gear

For pool & swimming, DermUV recommends SPF 50+ and a reapply interval around 80 minutes, adjusted for sweat, water, and reflection.

Checklist

Water-resistant SPF 50+ (80-min) UPF 50 rash guard for kids UV swim cap for long sessions Wraparound UV400 sunglasses for poolside
