A compact aerosol or pump-driven sun protection product designed for ease of portability. These sunscreens deliver broad-spectrum ultraviolet (UV) defense in a fine mist, packaged in volumes compliant with transportation security guidelines for carry-on luggage. An example is a 3.4-ounce container of SPF 30 sunscreen dispensed via a pressurized nozzle.
The utility of these smaller sun protection items lies in their convenience for travelers. They allow for consistent sun protection application throughout journeys, mitigating the risks associated with prolonged sun exposure, such as sunburn and premature aging. Their development reflects a response to travel restrictions on liquids, facilitating compliance while promoting skin health during transit and vacation.
