Why PGA Champion Justin Thomas started his own affordable skincare line
JT's passion for golf paired with a cancer scare a few years back inspired WearSPF, a sunscreen brand that keeps you and the oceans safe.
WearSPF/COURTESY
Justin Thomas has referred to himself as “just a boy from Kentucky,” but this “boy from Kentucky” has achieved more than most have ever dreamed… and he only just turned 30! But cancer does not discriminate, and it especially lurks eerily close to those who work, exercise or play in the sun.
We all know how detrimental UV rays can be. We’ve heard it throughout our lives — how sneaky and sudden the consequences of sun exposure may arise. That’s why after JT’s dermatologist, fortunately, discovered a mole on his leg signaling early stages of melanoma, JT knew he had to spread the word, “Go get checked!”

JT was lucky enough to catch his case early enough to have the entire melanoma surgically removed, and yes, getting checked is beyond important. But, 10 out of 10 dermatologists will tell you, “Wear sunscreen every day,” and that goes triple for anyone who works, exercises or plays in the sun.
Thus, WearSPF was born. An SPF brand whose name brilliantly incites JT’s important message to wear sunscreen to protect your well-being and have yourself regularly checked. When it comes to the health of you and your loved ones, you’ll never regret taking extra precautions.
WearSPF offers a variety of sunscreen options in the forms of sticks, sprays, lip balms and even after-sun-care — aloe and cleanser. But also, impressively, they offer multiple choices in both chemical sunscreen, which absorbs UV rays, and mineral sunscreen, which blocks them. Each caters to different needs, but both offer the protection you need.

It’s easy to forget to put on sunscreen at home, but it should be your first thought before you put on your golf glove! The best idea is to throw the sunscreen of your choice in your golf bag for easy access (and a great idea if you need to re-apply between the back and front nine).
Oh, and by the way, if you’re playing on or near a beach, Justin Thomas’ non-nano WearSPF sunscreens are reef-friendly to help keep our oceans and beaches thriving. Just another awesome aspect of this sunscreen and its formulas.
