About this item

  • SEE WHEN TO REAPPLY SUNSCREEN: SPOTMYUV is the world's first clinically proven PATENTED UV Detection Sticker that shows you if you are applying enough sunscreen and when to reapply
  • PATENTED DERMATRUE: EXCLUSIVE to SPOTMYUV UV Detection Stickers, our skin-mimicking technology absorbs sunscreen like your skin does. It wears off outdoors, swimming, or sweating, thanks to nanotechnology engineers from the University of Waterloo. Experience real-time sun protection visualization
  • CLINICALLY PROVEN: SPOTMYUV features a hypoallergenic, latex-free adhesive, dermatologist and pediatrician tested to help kids 3+ stay safe in the sun and help prevent sunburn
  • 1 STICKER A DAY: Each sticker lasts up to 12 hours. The color change will cycle ALL day with each sunscreen reapplication. You don't need to use another sticker each time you reapply
  • RECOMMENDED USE: Expose SPOT to outdoor UV light before applying sunscreen. If SPOT doesn't turn clear post-sunscreen application, SPF may be insufficient, expired, or not enough sunscreen has been applied. SPOTs work outdoors only and UV intensity impacts color change speed, so cloudy days may delay purple/clear transition

Poor instructions, sketchy visual feedback, expensive product

Poor instructions, sketchy visual feedback, expensive product
While writing this review, I looked at the Amazon page for SpotMyUV and I took pictures of what I received. The crux of my disappointment may very well lie at easily fixable problem on the manufacturing end: IMPROVE THE INSTRUCTIONS.So, let's get on with the story.The sunspots are advertised as turning from the out-of-the-box purple (no exposure) to clear (sunscreen working) to purple (sunscreen not working).I put a sunspot on near the tip of my nose (which always gets the most sun), put sunscreen on, and waited. After 30 minutes, the spot was still purple, and I thought, "Wow, bad sunscreen lotion."So I tried another spot with a different sunscreen. Same results: after 30 minutes, the spot remained purple. What the heck. I left it on my nose and went outside.It was a clear day, not overcast at all. Most of the time was gardening full-on in the direction of the sun. At 7,000 feet, where the UV rays are almost 40% stronger than at sea level.After 2 hours, the purple finally started to fade. When I came inside after a straight 4 hours outside, the spot was clearish with purple around the edges. Ergo, ok, sunscreen must have been working at some point.The delayed feedback about whether my sunscreen was working was disturbing. The delayed feedback could lead you to believe your sunscreen is faulty when that's not at all true. So you could waste a few sunspots trying one sunscreen after the other just to get feedback (or no feedback).Now, if you haven't already, have a look at the picture I've added. You might have to Zoom in close to see everything. The Amazon page advises exposing the spot to UV *before* applying sunscreen. The package instructions? Nary a whisper about this. (Also, the package instructions are incredibly tiny and hard to read). So maybe the delayed feedback was due to not attentively explosing the spots to UV before I applied sunscreen (but why would I? There were no instructions on the package!)And now the expensive part. At this writing, the spots are $35.99 (read: $36) for a pack of 48 ($0.75/ea). You could buy 2-3 new bottles of sunscreen for that price. Assuming you or someone in your group can do basic math, you can then easily determine when it's time for more sunscreen by looking at your watch or asking someone the time.Overall, I would classify SpotMyUV and anything similar to it as a novelty. One and done.
Thank you for your feedback

1.0 out of 5 stars They rarely turn clear even at 10 at night
Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2023
These are terrible and I'm so disappointed. I wanted to love them. I have a fair skinned red head and so sunscreen is our constant struggle and so I wanted these to be the solution so bad but they are trash. The instructions and kind of vague and it's hard to apply them correct so we wasted a few right off the bat. Once we figured it out we tried the several days and on several places and they all rarely went clear after application. One of them turned purple inside at 10 at night (pictured). They have to be absolutely slathered to the point you can't even see the dot which is unsustainable in order to stay clear for more than a few minutes outdoors and we tried 2 different sunscreen brands.
I also bought them too far in advance for our vacation by the time I tried them out they were outside the return window by the time I even tried them so I'm stuck with them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for testing sunscreen effectiveness!
Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2023
Love these! They do remind me when I need to reapply, and even was helpful in a Sunblock effectiveness test I conducted. Tested out 8 sunscreens for 1.5 hr in the summer evening, including a gym workout, and its pretty clear some work better than others. Referring to the pictures from left to right, I have 1. Supergoop's 100% mineral bright eyed cream, 2. KAHI's Aqua Balm (4 coats), 3. Derma B's Everyday Sunblock SPF 50, 4. Supergoop's Mattescreen, 5. Suncut's UV Perfect Essence Super Waterproof, 6. Dr. Dennis Gross All Physical Lightweight wrinkle defense SPF 30, 7. 100% Pure Green Tea SPF 30 Lotion, 8. Sun Bum SPF 70.

Sunscreen performance probably varies due to Waterproof and water resistance claims, but the stickers worked great!

I tried 2 different brands of UV sticker, this one was smaller and turned clear when sunscreen was applied (as you can see in the picture, the other brand did not).
After a full day of wearing, I then showered and the sticker stayed on (the other brand fell off).
