How to Use Your FSA or HSA Dollars to Buy Sunscreen

Did you know that you can use your Flexible Spending Account and Health Savings Account funds to shop SPF? We’re breaking down how you can make the most of your pre-tax dollars here!

Wait. What is an FSA again? How about an HSA?

FSAs (Flexible Spending Accounts) and HSAs (Health Savings Accounts) are employee benefits that let you set aside pre-tax dollars for certain healthcare expenses like healthcare appointment co-pays, specific medications... and sunscreen! That’s right; your SPF favorites are FSA and HSA eligible!

How do I know if I have one?

You can check with your employer or benefits provider! You probably also received a special credit for it.

How can I spend my FSA or HSA dollars at Supergoop!?

Simply enter the FSA or HSA card issued by your benefits provider at checkout, just like you would a regular credit card! If your provider asks you to submit a receipt to verify your purchase, you can share your shipping confirmation email.

If you don’t have an FSA or HSA card, you can use your own credit card at checkout and then submit your shipping confirmation email to your benefits provider for reimbursement later.

Which products are eligible?

Everything on Supergoop.com, excluding merch, is eligible for FSA or HSA shopping! This is because all of our products — from body lotions and skincare to makeup and gift sets — are formulated with SPF.

Got it! Any other advice?

Don’t wait to shop! While HSA dollars rollover each year, your FSA funds typically expire on 12/31. So if you still have some leftover money in your account at the end of the year, use it to stock up on sunscreen gifts for everyone on your holiday shopping list — including you!
