Private Label Sunscreen
Custom Sun Protection Manufacturing
Broad-spectrum sun protection solutions developed for daily wear, outdoor exposure, and regulatory compliance.
From lightweight daily sunscreens to high-protection body sun care, formulated for safety, stability, and scalable production.
The Shield Against Photo-Aging
Body sunscreen is the most critical step in preventing premature aging and skin damage. However, creating a high-SPF formula that users actually want to wear is an engineering challenge.
At Sheleys, we solve the “Sticky & White” problem. We utilize advanced Micronization Technology and Film-Forming Polymers to create sunscreens that offer robust Broad-Spectrum (UVA/UVB) protection while remaining invisible, non-greasy, and breathable on the skin.

The Science of Sunscreen Formulation
Sunscreen products are often questioned for both effectiveness and safety, making formulation design especially critical.
UV Filter Systems
Sun protection is achieved through UV filters, which are selected based on target market and regulatory requirements.
- Chemical (organic) UV filters – absorb UV radiation
- Physical (mineral) filters – reflect or scatter UV radiation
- Hybrid systems – combine both approaches
Filter selection considers:
- SPF and PA requirements
- stability under UV exposure
- skin tolerance
- regulatory approval in target markets
Broad-Spectrum Protection & Stability
Effective sunscreens must provide broad-spectrum protection against:
- UVB (sunburn-related damage)
- UVA (long-term skin aging and damage)
Formulations are designed to:
- maintain SPF performance over time
- resist degradation under sunlight
- remain evenly distributed on the skin
Customizing Your Sunscreen Product Line
Once protection level and usage scenario are defined, customization usually focuses on three practical dimensions.
Formula Customization
Brands may customize based on:
- SPF level (e.g. SPF 15 / 30 / 50)
- chemical, physical, or hybrid UV filter systems
- sensitivity and eye-area tolerance
Options include:
- fragrance-free systems
- low-white-cast formulations
- fast-absorbing or dry-touch textures
Packaging Solutions
Packaging for sunscreen products must support frequent use, portability, and formula stability.
- Pump Bottles
Suitable for body sunscreen lotions and creams. - Squeeze Tubes
Convenient for travel and controlled dispensing. - Spray Bottles
Used for quick application and outdoor convenience.
Quality & Testing
Sunscreen products are highly regulated and require strict testing and documentation.
- SPF & PA testing
Conducted according to relevant standards. - Water resistance testing
Where applicable. - Stability testing
Confirms UV filter performance under heat and light. - Microbial testing
Required for leave-on sun care products

Asked Questions
What is "Reef Safe" and can you manufacture it?
Yes. “Reef Safe” typically means free from Oxybenzone and Octinoxate (Hawaii compliant). We have a library of compliant, ocean-friendly formulas using Zinc Oxide or modern reef-safe chemical filters.
How much does SPF testing cost?
Official SPF testing (FDA 10-subject or ISO standard) is an external lab cost, typically ranging from $3,000 to $6,000 per SKU depending on the method (Static vs. Water Resistant). We coordinate this for you.
Can you make a spray sunscreen that isn't greasy?
Yes. We use volatile emollients (like alcohol-based or dry-oil based systems) that evaporate quickly upon application, leaving a dry-touch finish.
What is the MOQ for Sunscreen?
Due to the complexity of validation and stability testing, Sunscreen MOQs are generally 5,000 – 10,000 units. This ensures the R&D and Testing costs are amortized effectively.
