Our glasses are not affected by water, heat or sun rays; the only issue is that you should be careful when using them after applying sunscreen. Some sunscreen, lotion, cosmetic products and essential oils can have a negative effect on the appearance of tumblers, causing a cloudy layer and leaving smudges on the surface of the glass. However, you can still use your glass if this happens, as it doesn’t affect its safety. Nevertheless, it is better to prevent it from fading or discoloring by avoiding contact with sunscreen products.

Do you ever wonder why sunscreen can spoil the original appearance of the glass? 

The tumblers are made from a material called Tritan. According to recent research, sunscreen can negatively affect the material, causing cloudy layers on the surface of the glass or etchings in the material.

That is why, we recommend you avoid touching the glass after applying sunscreen and avoid contact of any sunscreen product with Unbreakable Drinking Glasses made of Tritan. In case the sunscreen gets on your glass, please wash it as soon as possible in order not to get a cloudy permanent mark on it. If you follow this simple rule, your glasses will live and shine much longer.
