FAQs
Is this sunscreen suitable for very sensitive skin?
Yes, it is formulated to be hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, making it suitable for sensitive skin. However, individual reactions can occur, so a patch test is always recommended.
Can I use this sunscreen under makeup?
Absolutely. Its ultra-light, dry-touch finish makes it an excellent primer for makeup, absorbing quickly without leaving a greasy residue.
Does this sunscreen leave a white cast?
No, the Invisible Fluid Sunscreen is designed to leave no white marks or shine, providing a natural and invisible finish on the skin.
How often should I reapply this sunscreen?
You should reapply at least every two hours, or more frequently if swimming, sweating heavily, or towel drying.
What does 'long-UVA' protection mean?
Long-UVA rays penetrate deeper into the skin than traditional UVA rays and contribute to premature aging and skin damage. This sunscreen is formulated to protect against these longer UVA wavelengths.
Is this sunscreen water-resistant?
Yes, the sunscreen is water and sweat-resistant, offering protection during light water activities. However, it is not a 'waterproof' sunscreen and requires reapplication after exposure to water.
What is the benefit of the antioxidants in this sunscreen?
The antioxidants (Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Niacinamide) work alongside UV filters to help protect the skin from free radical damage caused by environmental stressors like pollution and UV exposure, further combatting signs of premature aging.
Troubleshooting
Sunscreen leaves a slight sheen
Ensure you are shaking the bottle well before use and applying a thin, even layer. Allow it to fully absorb for a few minutes before applying makeup.
Skin feels dry after application
Although hydrating, this fluid is a sunscreen. For very dry skin, ensure you are using a rich moisturizer underneath before applying the sunscreen.
Product appears separated
This can happen if the product has not been shaken thoroughly. Shake the bottle vigorously before each application to re-emulsify the formula.
Eyes sting when sunscreen is applied near them
While tested to be non-stinging, individual sensitivities can vary. Apply sunscreen at least an inch away from the immediate eye area. Consider using a separate eye cream with SPF if irritation persists.
