Sunscreen Stains

Certain sunscreen ingredients stain clothing fabrics, including Solumbra fabrics, and the stains can be challenging, if not impossible, to remove. Please be cautious when applying sunscreen. Solumbra is not responsible for sunscreen stains to Solumbra fabrics and products.

Sunscreen ingredients may create a combination stain that often contains an oily or a rusty component:

Oily stains are difficult to remove from all fabrics including Solumbra, so you should try to avoid them by applying the sunscreen directly to your skin and allowing it to dry before putting clothes on.

Rusty stains may be harder to remove. These stains are a result of the chemical reaction that takes place when sunscreens containing avobenzone or oxybenzone come in contact with water or perspiration.

Zinc oxide, titanium dioxide and iron oxides, also sunscreen ingredients, may stain white and dark colored fabrics. These stains are more likely to wash away when using normal care instructions.

We encourage you to do your own research with the sunscreens you use and see how they stain fabrics. Also, we want to remind you that it is not necessary to wear sunscreen under Solumbra products. Sunscreen is important on any exposed skin areas such as face, neck, and back of hands.

We have found that some sunscreen stains may be partially or fully removed by using Tide Ultra Stain Release Liquid and/or Carbona #9 for Rust and Perspiration. Please visit these companies websites for more information and instructions.
