Triathlete. Dad. 5:30 alarm guy.
The Sunburn Was Just the Beginning
For years, I treated sunburn like a side effect of the lifestyle.
I’d come home from 60-mile rides with red shoulders.
Run laps in brutal heat with my face tight and peeling by sundown.
The tan lines from sunglasses, the flaky skin, the dull tone — they just became part of the package.
I figured as long as I recovered, I was fine.
But the damage didn’t stop when the soreness did.
Around 40, it started to show up for real:
- My forehead lines stopped bouncing back
- My skin looked uneven no matter how clean I ate
- Race-day photos made me look tired, drawn — older than I felt
That’s when I knew I had to start taking sun protection seriously.
I Tried the Waterproof Stuff
Because that’s what everyone says you need, right?
Water-resistant. Long-lasting. Made for athletes.
But in real life?
- It went on thick — felt like body armor
- It took forever to scrub off
- Still stung my eyes mid-run
- Made me look like I dipped my face in zinc
Worse, it made me not want to use it again.
And that’s the real problem.
It doesn’t matter how “tough” your sunscreen is if you don’t actually want it on your skin.
What I Actually Needed
Not bulletproof. Not chalky. Not something I had to fight with.
Just something that:
✔️ Protected me from UV
✔️ Didn’t sting or smear
✔️ Absorbed fast
✔️ Looked invisible
✔️ Fit my daily routine
And that’s exactly what I found in Particle Invisible Sunscreen.
Real Protection Without the Bullsh*t
What makes Particle different isn’t some overhyped gimmick.
It’s everything it doesn’t do:
- ❌ Doesn’t sting your eyes
- ❌ Doesn’t turn your face shiny
- ❌ Doesn’t leave white streaks
- ❌ Doesn’t feel like a layer of glue
- ❌ Doesn’t wreck your pre-race flow
Instead, it slides into your morning routine like a training essential.
Apply it once — it vanishes instantly — and you’re good to go.
It became part of my checklist. Socks, shoes, bottle, sunscreen. Done.
But… It’s Not Water-Resistant
Right. Let’s talk about that.
Particle isn’t water-resistant — by design.
And after years of using the “sweat-proof” stuff, I’ve realized that’s not a downside. It’s the reason I actually use it.
Most of us don’t stop mid-session to reapply sunscreen anyway.
We want something that feels good enough to use daily, even when we’re not on the bike or the track.
Water-resistant formulas are built to cling.
But that makes them thick, sticky, and hard to remove — not ideal for guys training 6 days a week.
Particle took the smarter route:
A lightweight formula with SPF 40 broad-spectrum protection that absorbs fast and feels invisible.
I’d rather use something consistently than avoid something “tough” that feels awful.
What Changed for Me
Since switching to Particle, a few things stood out:
- My face doesn’t feel cooked post-workout
- I’m not self-conscious in post-race photos
- I don’t dread applying sunscreen anymore
- My skin looks healthier, smoother — even outside of training
And honestly, that’s what this all comes down to:
If it doesn’t feel good, you won’t use it.
And if you won’t use it, it won’t protect you.
You Train Like It Matters.
Why Not Protect Like It Does?
Sun damage adds up over time.
And it’s not just about looking younger — it’s about showing up sharp. Feeling good. Staying in the game longer.
If you’ve tried everything and still haven’t found “the one,” I recommend giving this a shot.
No gimmicks. No white streaks. No greasy mess.
Just a sunscreen you’ll actually use.
✔️ SPF 40 Broad Spectrum
✔️ No white cast
✔️ No greasy feel
✔️ No eye sting
✔️ Absorbs fast
✔️ Invisible on all skin tones
✔️ Designed for everyday athletes
Try It Risk-Free
Like all Particle products, this one comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Try it. Train with it. Sweat in it.
And if it’s not the cleanest, easiest sunscreen you’ve used?
Send it back. No questions asked.
But if you’re anything like me — you’ll forget you’re wearing it. And that’s exactly the point
