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.

Sheleys Sunscreen Portfolio

We manufacture a wide range of sunscreen products for private label and custom sun care programs.

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

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.

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.

Yes. We use volatile emollients (like alcohol-based or dry-oil based systems) that evaporate quickly upon application, leaving a dry-touch finish.

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.
