Sanibel, FL. (April 30, 2025) – In an effort to enhance golfer safety, Sun Blessed Skin Sunscreen is launching 1st Tee Golf Sunscreen in the United States. Specifically formulated for golfers, this innovative sunscreen delivers superior, non-greasy sun protection that caters to the unique needs of the sport with a formula that prevents “grip slip”.
Sun Blessed Skin’s 1st Tee Golf Sunscreen is available in SPF 30 broad-spectrum formula, which blocks approximately 97 percent of harmful UV rays, safeguarding golfers against sunburn and long-term skin damage. Recent studies show that 27 percent of golfers experience skin cancer during their lifetimes due to prolonged sun exposure, a stark comparison to just seven percent in the general population, as reported in a 2023 study from the British Medical Journal’s Open Sport & Exercise Medicine report. As one in four golfers is projected to be impacted by skin cancer, the proper use of sunscreen is as critical as mastering any swing.
“Prevention starts with using the right sunscreen and applying it correctly,” said Graham Swan, Managing Partner of Sun Blessed Skin’s 1st Tee Golf Sunscreen. Graham notes that golfers should apply sunscreen at least 30 minutes before play and ensure users cover all exposed areas of the skin every two hours.
Sun Blessed Skin’s 1st Tee Golf Sunscreen is targeting pro shops, off course and big box retailers that sell golfing equipment. Its sunscreen offers a lightweight, odorless texture for easy application. Its innovative packaging is designed for golfers, fitting conveniently in golf bags for on-the-go use. Made in the USA and formulated with eco-friendly ingredients, Sunblessed 1st Tee Golf Sunscreen avoids harmful chemicals that threaten marine ecosystems, aligning with the brand’s commitment to sustainability.
“Many golfers think they don’t need sunscreen on cloudy days or when it’s cooler,” added Mike Sharp, Managing Partner of Sun Blessed’s Skin 1st Tee Golf Sunscreen. “The reality is that UV rays can cause damage regardless of the weather.”
Sun Blessed Skin’s 1st Tee Golf Sunscreen is not just a product; it’s a movement to protect the health and well-being of golfers everywhere, encouraging the golfing community to prioritize both their game and skin. The company is committed to supporting junior golfers and fostering healthy practices for a brighter future in the sport.
