Apply generously onto the scalp or hair.
Allow it to dry before exposure to direct sunlight.

Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
Ideally do a patch test before use.
Keep out of reach of children.
What is SPF?
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 doesn't affect UV levels. Look up the UV index for your area to make sure you're using protection when you need to be.
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 of 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.
There are two types of ultraviolet radiation which can harm our skin UVA and UVB. Only UVB causes burning, but both types damage our skin, so good sunscreens should protect against both. However, SPF only measures UVB protection, so you have to check to make sure your sunscreen offers UVA protection too. There are lots of different UVA measuring systems around the world. We use the European standard look for the letters UVA inside a circle. This symbol means that a product meets the EU-recommended level of UVA protection.
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.
We believe the product will not directly affect dyed hair. However, as there are many types of dye systems, we ask you apply with precaution and to a small part of the head / hair first as a test if possible.
Perfect to spray on before sunbathing! No more sore scalp at parting!

Bought this for a trip to Rome with my partner and as a fair skinned ginger girl best bet I needed this especially with the sun shining and highs of 38 degrees. This was a life saver, very lightweight didn’t make my hair greasy, has a faint smell to it but nothing too obnoxious. My partner even used this on his hair and around his sides where his hair is shorter and it really worked well for him.

absolute game-changer for anyone who spends time outdoors! As someone with a sensitive scalp, I've struggled to find a product that effectively protects without leaving a greasy residue or weighing down my hair. But this exceeded all my expectations. Not only does it provide SPF 30 protection against harmful UV rays, but its lightweight, non-greasy formula absorbs quickly and leaves my scalp feeling refreshed. would highly recommend!

This was great on holiday for me, I had my hair in braids for the majority of my holiday and my scalp never burnt whatsoever! I sprayed it at the recommended distance and my hair never looked oily or greasy. Will buy again next year for my next holiday Yes - I would recommend this to a friend.
