Program eligibility: Members of The Skin Cancer Foundation’s Corporate Council who manufacture or market sun protection products are eligible to submit products into our application process for the Seal of Recommendation. Companies representing about 100 brands support the Foundation’s mission with an annual Corporate Council membership fee of $10,000. This membership fee has remained the same since 1981 to ensure inclusivity for new and small companies. Corporate Council membership fees help support our education programs, including the administrative costs associated with the Seal of Recommendation program. If they choose, manufacturers complete an application and submit required product data and testing results, which are reviewed by our volunteer Photobiology Committee. Not all of a Corporate Council member’s products meet our standards, and not all submitted products are approved. The Seal of Recommendation is awarded to individual sun protection products, not to brands. Learn more about the Seal of Recommendation.
