Travel Size

Travel size sunscreen is any product that meets TSA’s 3.4 ounce or 100-milliliter liquid rule for carry-on bags. These smaller formats fit into your quart-sized liquids bag so you can move through security without delays.

Travel-size sprays and lotions from Surface Sunscreen are selected to work within these limits so you can keep SPF with you on every flight.

Yes, Surface Sunscreen travel size products are designed to work within current TSA liquid rules when packed correctly.

Lotions and sprays that are 3.4 ounces or smaller can go in your quart sized liquids bag.

Solid SPF sticks are an easy option because they are not treated the same way as liquids, which helps you save space in your carry on while still keeping protection close at hand.

Each format does something slightly different.

Sticks are ideal for faces, ears, and quick touchups, especially in airports and on the plane. Lotions are great for full body coverage at the pool, beach, or on long days outside.

Sprays work well when you need fast coverage on arms, legs, and shoulders.

Many travelers pair a Surface Sunscreen stick for everyday touchups with a lotion or spray for more time in the sun.

Most people use less sunscreen than they actually need.

A general rule is about one ounce of sunscreen for full body coverage and reapplication every two hours when you are outdoors or in the water.

For a long weekend or short trip, it is smart to pack more than one travel-size product from Surface Sunscreen so you can apply generously and stay protected the entire time.

Surface Sunscreen focuses on clean, responsible formulations, including microplastic-free products and options that avoid ingredients like oxybenzone and octinoxate that are often restricted in reef-sensitive areas.

Choosing these travel-size products helps you protect your skin while also being mindful of marine environments and coastal destinations.
