Effortless spray sunscreen solutions for everyday protection
Convenient and effective, spray sunscreens are your go-to choice for quick, even coverage. With fine mists that cover hard-to-reach areas in seconds, they’re perfect for busy days, beach trips, and outdoor activities. At Watsons UAE, you’ll find body sun creams in spray format, sunblock sprays, sports sun creams, and spray-on SPF for both face and body.
Embrace sun-filled days without worry by choosing from our easy-to-use sunscreen sprays, designed to help keep your skin healthy and protected while in contact with the sun.
Why choose a spray sunscreen?
Spray formulas are ideal when you want fast, fuss-free sun protection. The lightweight mist helps you achieve an even layer over large areas like arms, legs, and back in just a few seconds. Many options are water resistant, making them great companions for pool days, beach outings, and outdoor sports.
For best results, always apply generously and reapply regularly, especially after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying.
Face, body & sports-ready SPF
From hydrating face mists with SPF to dry-touch sprays for the body, our range covers every need. Choose gentle formulas suitable for everyday use on the face, and opt for high-protection sprays for intense outdoor activities and sports. Many sprays offer broad-spectrum protection to help defend your skin against both UVA and UVB rays.
Complete your routine with an after-sun or soothing body care lotion to replenish moisture after a long day in the sun.
How to use spray sunscreen correctly
Hold the bottle at the recommended distance from your skin (usually 10–15 cm) and spray until the area glistens, then rub the product in with your hands to ensure full, even coverage. Don’t forget commonly missed spots like the back of the neck, ears, and tops of feet. For face application, spray into your hands first, then gently pat onto your face to avoid inhalation or eye contact.
Apply at least 15–20 minutes before sun exposure, and reapply every two hours or more often when swimming or sweating.

FAQs
Are spray sunscreens as effective as lotion?
Yes—spray sunscreens can be just as effective as lotions when applied correctly and in sufficient amounts. Make sure to spray generously and rub the product in for even coverage.
Can I use spray sunscreen on my face?
You can, but it’s best to spray the product into your hands first, then apply it to the face to avoid inhaling the mist or getting it in your eyes. Alternatively, choose a dedicated facial face sunscreen formulated for daily use.
How often should I reapply spray sunscreen?
Reapply every two hours, or more frequently if you are swimming, sweating, or towel-drying. Even water-resistant sprays need to be topped up regularly for optimal protection.
Are spray sunscreens suitable for sports and outdoor activities?
Many spray sunscreens are designed with water resistance and long-lasting wear in mind, making them ideal for sports and outdoor adventures. Look for “sport” or “water-resistant” labels and always follow the reapplication instructions.
Do I still need sunscreen on cloudy days?
Absolutely. Up to 80% of UV rays can penetrate clouds, so daily sunscreen use is recommended—even when the sky looks overcast. A convenient spray makes top-ups throughout the day much easier.
