Overview
A hands-free SPF 35 spray mist from Oars + Alps built for the face and scalp, using avobenzone, homosalate and octisalate as its active sunscreen ingredients. Suits people who want a quick spray for hairline, scalp and neck coverage during workouts or outdoor time.
The spray format is aimed at areas lotion struggles to cover cleanly, particularly a thinning or parted scalp. It uses chemical rather than mineral actives, and the 1.5 oz size is listed as a single travel package rather than a full-size everyday bottle.

Who it's for
