Product Overview
These UV detection stickers are designed to help you monitor sunscreen effectiveness and remind you when it's time to re-apply. The stickers contain a UV-sensitive layer which changes colour or appearance when UV exposure exceeds a threshold — indicating that your current protection may be fading or that you might be exposed for longer than recommended. Whether you’re at the beach, poolside, hiking or outdoors for extended periods, these stickers offer a simple visual cue to keep your skin safer.
Key Features
- UV-Sensitive indicator: The sticker features a layer that visibly reacts under ultraviolet light — once the sun’s UV exposure passes a certain point (or your sunscreen’s protection is diminished) the sticker changes, signalling that you should re-apply sunscreen.
- Water-resistant / durable design: Built to withstand outdoor use — exposure to sun, water (e.g., swimming or splashes), sweat and incidental wear. This helps ensure the indicator remains functional during your outdoor activities.
- Easy to use: Peel off the backing, stick to a visible area (e.g., your arm, hat brim, beach bag or towel) and watch for colour change to prompt action.
- Complement to sunscreen: These are not a substitute for sunscreen but a helpful tool to reinforce safe sun-behaviour by reminding you of re-application timing.
- Compact & portable: Lightweight stickers you can carry or attach anywhere; ideal for family use, kids, travellers or outdoor sports.
- Versatile use-scenarios: Good for beach days, poolside, hiking, boating, holiday travel, festivals, sports — wherever you’re exposed to strong sun for periods.
Specifications
- Sticker size: approx ~30mm diameter (check actual packaging for exact)
- Material: UV-sensitive film layered over adhesive backing with protective top sheet
- Packaging: 48 Pack of multiple stickers
- Colour indicator: May change from light to dark, or reveal pattern when UV level crossed
- Shelf life / storage: Store in cool, dry place; avoid prolonged exposure before use
Use Instructions
- Clean and dry the surface (skin, strap, bag) where you will stick the indicator.
- Peel the sticker from its backing and adhere firmly.
- Expose to sunlight; when the indicator shows the UV threshold has been reached (colour change or pattern appears), you should apply or re-apply your sunscreen.
- After use, dispose of the sticker as per local waste-guidelines.
- Combine with regular sunscreen usage (broad-spectrum SPF, water-resistant as needed) and sun-safe practices (shade, hats, UV glass etc).
Benefits & Ideal Uses
- Enhanced sun safety: Adds a visual reminder so you’re less likely to forget to re-apply sunscreen.
- Peace of mind for user & family: Especially when kids or other family members may be distracted or outdoors for long periods.
- Outdoor enthusiasts: For hikers, swimmers, festival-goers who may not track time for re-application.
- Travellers & holiday makers: Easy tool to keep in beach bag or suitcase for unexpected intense sun exposure.
Important Considerations
- The stickers are an aid — they do not replace sunscreen or physical sun-protection measures (shade, hats, protective clothing).
- If you apply them to skin, ensure your skin is free of oils, lotion or sand for best adhesion.
- Indicator sensitivity may vary — it’s designed as a cue, not a precise scientific measurement of UV index.
- Store stickers away from strong UV or heat before use, or they may pre-activate/lose calibration.

The collection fees are as follows:
- For returns on items that were sent with free shipping: R198
- For returns that had a surcharge, the same surcharge will apply for collection.
Please log your return on your account, under the returns manager.
We do not reimburse your fee to ship to us, but we will pay for return shipping if the item is subject to replacement. If the item you wish to return was ordered incorrectly / is no longer required / you have changed your mind, there is a collection fee that will be charged (please refer to the above) and this will be deducted from the refund amount once the supplier has credited us. Please note GeeWiz will only cover return shipping of a faulty unit within 6 months of purchase, after which, a shipping fee (starting from R198) will be applicable to you for the return of the unit.
Any disputes relating to ordered items being short/incorrectly shipped will only be entertained if reported to GeeWiz within 3 days of delivery/collection.
Refunds are subject to inspection of item(s) - in some cases, items will need to be sent to supplier for evaluation and testing. This can take up to 15 working days. Once a refund has been approved, this may take 3 - 5 business days to be processed.

After the 6-month period, you will no longer be eligible and won't be able to receive a refund. We can however replace or repair depending on the outcome after our team of professionals has inspected the product.
Should a warranty sticker not be present on an item, the warranty is immediately null and void.
Batteries are covered under warranty, but please note that GEL, AGM and LEAD ACID have limited cycle runs. These are typically around 200 cycles and may run out before the end of the warranty.
