Default Sunscreen idea

I am taking a cruise and getting married when the ship docks in St. Thomas. there are about 20 people coming. I want to send thank you gift bags before the cruise. I don't want to have to worry about bringing them with me. I would like to create a wedding logo and put it on some of the things in the bag. One of the things I thought of including was sunscreen. I was thinking of having stickers made of the logo I create and having that as the label on the sunscreen. Does anyone have any ideas about where I could get sunscreen without the labels already on?

I guess my other option is to just peel the label off that comes on the bottle.

Thanks!

gosh, i dont know any bottles that have labels that peel off - most sunscreens have the company logo printed directly on the bottle. what if you got the single use packets of sunscreen and put your stickers over the brand name?

(btw, hello from the only other maura here!)

I agree with maura, you should get the packets and put labels over them, that way they would be a normal shape and not have to fit over a round or odd shaped sunblock.

I actually thought about the same thing, but I think what I might do is buy a super huge bottle at Costco (not sure if you have costco in the US, but any other wholesale store) and then buy mini bottles from the dollar store and fill those and put a label on them I'd drive myself bananas peeling off all those labels and then covering them in goo-gone lol

You could also maybe make a tag and tie it around the neck of the bottle instead of sticking a label on. Or even put the bottles in another type of bag?? I think most (not 100% sure) bottles have the printing done directly on them versus on a label you can peel off.
