Sunscreen Bottle Labels
Sunscreen Bottle Labels
We print custom sunscreen labels for skincare and beauty brands, resorts, and private label sunscreen lines. A sunscreen bottle rides in a beach bag, gets grabbed with slick, sandy fingers, and sits in the sun by the pool. Our materials and finishes are made to handle water, oil, and UV exposure, so the label stays on and stays readable. Decoration options help your bottle stand out on a crowded shelf.
Sunscreen labels carry a lot of small print. We’ll email you a digital proof so you can check positioning, color, and legibility before anything prints. Order as few or as many as you need. You’ll have a quote within 24 hours, and most standard labels print within 5 business days of artwork approval. We ship anywhere in the U.S.

Frequently Asked Questions
Copy
We know sunscreen labels can get pretty detailed, but here’s a quick rundown of the essentials:
-
- Protection Factor: Be sure to include an SPF number (like SPF 30) so everyone knows the level of coverage.
- Active Ingredients: These are the UV-blocking ingredients (such as zinc oxide or avobenzone) that do the real work.
- Inactive Ingredients: List the rest of the components that round out your formula, like moisturizers or stabilizers.
- Claims: Be careful here—certain words (like “waterproof”) aren’t allowed, so make sure any claims are backed by testing.
- Labeling Requirements: Keep an eye on legal must-haves like the Drug Facts panel, net contents, and manufacturer details.
- Period of Time: If your sunscreen is water-resistant, specify how long it holds up during swimming or sweating. (usually 40 or 80 minutes).
By covering these points, you can help ensure your labels meet regulations, inform customers accurately, and make sun protection as straightforward as possible.
