Good to know

Two kinds of UV. One tube.

SPF only measures protection against UVB. That’s why you need a broad-spectrum sunscreen: one with both a high SPF (UVB) and a high PPD (UVA).

UVB

B for Burning

Causes sunburn, varies with season and location, and increases the risk of skin cancer. Expressed as SPF: SPF 50 filters 98.3% of UVB.

UVA

A for Ageing

Responsible for skin ageing and deeper skin damage. Present all year round and passes through glass. Expressed as PPD.

How to use

Apply it the way Dr Birnie advises

Mit Kleidung und Hut bedecken. Mittags der Sonne ausweichen. 20 Minuten vor dem Sonnenbad großzügig auftragen. Häufig wiederholen. Kontakt mit den Augen vermeiden. Längere Sonnenexposition kann schädlich sein. Babys nicht der Sonne aussetzen.

The dermatologist behind it

“Sunscreens should be easy to apply, leave no residue and feel like a moisturising cream. They also need to be affordable, so they can be applied generously.”

Altruist was founded in 2015 by dermatologist Dr Andrew Birnie and Dutch economist David Westerbeek van Eerten. They developed the products in their spare time to keep costs low, and pass that saving on in the price.

How we help

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Answered by Dr Andrew Birnie and the Altruist team.

More questions? Visit our FAQ
How long does a litre last?

You need about 30 ml to cover your whole body. A litre is therefore enough for around 30 full applications: ideal for a family holiday or a whole season of outdoor sport.

Is the pump bottle hygienic?

Yes. The pump dispenses the cream without you touching the contents. Close the pump after use and store the bottle in a cool place, out of the sun.

From what age is it suitable?

This sunscreen is suitable from 2 years. For babies from 6 months, we recommend the Family Sunspray SPF50.

How much sunscreen should I use?

To get the protection stated on the pack, you need 2 mg per cm² of skin. That is roughly one teaspoon per body part and a shot glass for the whole body. In practice, most people apply only half that amount.

How often should I reapply?

Reapply every two hours, and always after swimming, exercising or towel-drying. Even a water-resistant sunscreen loses some of its protection in the water.

What does PPD 52 mean?

PPD shows how well a sunscreen protects against UVA radiation, which causes skin ageing and pigmentation. In Europe this value must be at least one third of the SPF. With PPD 52, the UVA protection of this product is well above that European minimum.

How long does the product keep?

Once opened, the product keeps for 12 months, as shown by the symbol on the packaging. Store it in a cool place, out of direct sunlight.

Is Altruist tested on animals?

No. Animal testing for cosmetics is banned in the European Union, and our products have never been tested on animals.
