Hit Promo Now Selling Sunburn Alert Body-Stickers

The brandable stickers alert wearers when it’s time to reapply sunblock.

Hit Promotional Products (asi/61125), one of the 10 largest suppliers in the ad specialty industry, is coming to market with a product that takes the mystery out of when to reapply sunscreen.

On Wednesday, the Largo, FL-based company announced that it will be providing Sunburn Alert Body-Stickers to the promo products market. Users put one of the circular stickers on their skin and apply sunblock to it as they spread or spray sunscreen on their body. The sticker starts out white, meaning there’s an adequate level of protection from ultraviolet rays. But as time goes on and the screen’s SPF fades, the sticker turns blue, indicating that it’s time to reapply. The stickers work in dry and wet conditions, in pools and in ocean water.
