Our Once a Day Sun Protection only needs to be applied to the skin once and protects you all day long. The water resistant formula provides protection against both UVA and UVB rays. The range consists of five products ranging from SPF10 to SPF50+ and we recommend our Once a Day SPF40 for kids as it is suitable for their delicate skin.
You can also try our handy, pocket-size Once a Day Sachets to stay protected while you are on the move.
Apply to clean dry skin, preferably after a shower.
Apply evenly and generously to all exposed areas 15 minutes before sun exposure, then rub in well to allow the product to bind with the skin and form a protective film against UVA and UVB rays.
Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.

Yes, sunscreen is still required. Even when the sky is overcast, UV radiation levels are still at 80% of their normal levels. The temperature can be deceptive - a breeze can keep you cool, but it doesnt affect UV levels. Look up the UV index for your area to make sure youre using protection when you need to be.
Yes! They keep their effectiveness by binding more strongly to the skin, so they last longer. Our Calypso Once A Day range is rigorously tested to ensure that even after 8 hours of wear, it still offers the SPF on the label. You should be extra careful to apply enough of the product and make sure all exposed skin is covered. However, please remember that even water-resistant Once A Day sunscreens can still be washed off if you spend a long time in the water or if you dry yourself with a towel, so you might need to reapply.
We're pleased to say that we don't test any of our products on animals. What's more, we don't buy ingredients that have been tested on animals by another manufacturer. So you can buy Calypso confident in the knowledge that your sun care is cruelty-free.
All our products are suitable for vegetarians. However, some contain ingredients like keratin (made from sheep's wool) or beeswax (made by bees) that vegans may wish to avoid. If you have any questions about animal ingredients, please get in touch.
Sunscreens leave a protective layer on your skin, which can be washed off by water. A sunscreen that is water-resistant stays on your skin for longer than normal. However, it will still be washed away eventually. To be safe, reapply if you spend more than forty minutes in the water. If you dry yourself with a towel or take a shower anything that involves rubbing your skin you should also reapply immediately. You will need to dry your skin before reapplying sunscreen, unless youre using our Calypso Dry Oil Wet Skin Spray. This can be applied on both wet and dry skin.
Calypso SPF products meet all UVA and UVB standards and are rigorously tested to ensure their effectiveness. The star rating system was designed by Boots (retailer) and is not recognised as industry standard, nor is it regulated.
The letters "UVA" inside a circle is a European industry standard marking, which is contained on all Calypso products.
Yes you can. All ingredients in the Calypso product range have been approved as cosmetic ingredients.
I have been using the SPF 30 once a day for the last few years and will never buy anotherr sunscreen . I am fairly pale and have light red hair always used to burn and never tan no matter what I used. This changed my whole holiday experience as since using I have never burnt or even gone red but gained a beautiful sun kissed colour would highly recommend 👍 .

I've been using this for a few years. I tan easily, and don't usually burn in the UK, so when I go to the Med in September I'm usually fairly well tanned already. I apply SPF 10 Once-a-day after breakfast and lie in the sun all day long, and never burn, unless my wife has missed a bit on my back! If I go abroad without a preliminary tan, I'll start off with SPF 20. Of all the all-day lotions I've used over the years, I've found this to be the most easy to apply, and doesn't smell too bad, like some do. It's also usually cheaper than the others, so it's a win-win for me!

Followed the instructions and let it dry before dressing. As soon as I started to sweat it turned very sticky and didn't feel very nice! Great protection but felt awful.

This is an absolutely amazing sunscreen!!! Its better than the more expensive sunscreens out there!!! I don't know what it is about this product but it stops hyperpigmentation from getting worse!!! I have been a sufferer of hyperpigmentation for years! Any other sunscreen i use no matter what brand or price, my hyperpigmentation always gets further aggrevated even with a high spf 50! But with this no, i can be in the sun for hours and it won't get worse!!! I imagine it'll be the same for sunburn! This product has been a life saver for me literally and i really hope they never discontinue it or change the ingredients!!! It works so pls never change anything about it!!! Just make sure to let it dry the full 15mins as then it won't feel greasy!! I use powder on top. And i only came across this by change as my usual sunscreen had ran out! But its cheaper than my usual sunscreen and it actually works!!!!
