DermUV

UV Protection for Running

Runners deal with sweat-driven SPF drift, sustained midday exposure on roads, and asphalt reflection (~5–10% UV bounce).

Recommended gear

For running, DermUV recommends SPF 30+ and a reapply interval around 60 minutes, adjusted for sweat, water, and reflection.

Checklist

Sweat-resistant SPF 30–50 (gel or stick) UV-blocking running visor or cap Sport sunglasses (UV400, anti-fog) UPF arm sleeves for long runs
