Why Daily SPF Matters
You’ve probably heard us say it before: daily sun protection is one of the most powerful ways to preserve your skin’s health and appearance.
Even on cloudy days or while driving, UV rays can damage your skin, leading to premature ageing, pigmentation and even some skin cancers.
SPF isn’t just a summer essential — it’s a daily habit that maintains your salon results, prevents new damage and keeps your complexion radiant year-round.
Why Smooth & Tan Choose Manola Health
In light of recent news about some Australian sunscreens being pulled from shelves for failing SPF tests, we want our clients to know: Manola Health is different.
Manola Health SPF 50+ products are TGA-approved, meaning they’ve been tested and registered with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) — Australia’s highest regulatory authority for medical and sun protection products.
This certification guarantees that Manola’s SPF 50+ sunscreens meet strict Australian standards for quality, safety and UV protection.

Australian-Made. Professionally Tested. Expert Approved.
All Manola SPF products are:
- Made in Australia by a TGA-registered manufacturer
- SPF tested locally under strict TGA guidelines
- Formulated for everyday wear — comfortable, lightweight and effective
The Manola range includes:
- Manola Natural Tinted BB Cream SPF30 – your perfect daily glow with built-in sun protection.
- Manola Velvet Touch Sun Shield SPF50+ – a silky, non-greasy formula ideal for daily facial use.
- Manola Water Resistant Sun Screen SPF50+ – long-lasting protection for outdoor and active lifestyles.
Both SPF50+ formulas:
- Provide very high broad-spectrum protection
- Aid in preventing premature skin ageing
- Aid in the prevention of solar keratosis and sunspots
- May assist in preventing some skin cancers
- May reduce the risk of some skin cancers
Professional-Grade Protection, Trusted by Experts
We use Manola Health SPF products in our professional treatments at Smooth & Tan because we believe in their quality — and our clients love how they feel.
They’re light, comfortable under makeup and don’t leave that typical “sunscreen feel.”
Best of all, they help lock in your facial results, protect against pigmentation and support long-term skin health.
Support Local. Protect Your Skin.
Choosing Manola Health means you’re supporting a local, Australian-made brand that upholds the highest professional standards — and delivers the sun protection your skin deserves.
