The Ultimate Guide to Sun Protection for Women Golfers
The Golfer’s Guide to Sun Protection: Stay Glowing on and off the Course
As an esthetician and a golfer, I know firsthand how much time we spend under the sun chasing the perfect swing. While we focus on our game, the sun is working against us—causing premature aging, sunburn, and long-term skin damage. Sun protection for golfers isn’t just about avoiding a burn; it’s about preserving your skin’s health for years to come. The combination of UV exposure, sweat, and environmental factors can lead to hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and even serious conditions like skin cancer. The key to keeping your skin healthy on the green? A UV golf sunscreen that’s specifically designed to withstand long hours outdoors, provide broad-spectrum SPF coverage, and feel comfortable enough to wear every round.
What to Look for in a Sunscreen for Golf
Not all sunscreens are created equal—especially when it comes to sports like golf. A sunscreen for golf needs to be:
✅ Sweat-Resistant & Long-Lasting – You don’t want a formula that melts into your eyes mid-swing. Look for water- and sweat-resistant SPF that stays put even on the hottest days.
✅ Non-Greasy & Lightweight – A thick, oily sunscreen can interfere with your grip and feel heavy on your skin. Choose a lightweight, fast-absorbing formula that won’t clog pores or leave a white cast.
✅ Broad-Spectrum Protection – Protecting against both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays is essential. A high SPF (30 or more) ensures your skin stays shielded from long-term sun damage.
✅ Easy to Reapply – Sunscreen should be reapplied every two hours on the course. Opt for a sunscreen stick or mist for quick, mess-free reapplications between holes.
