Product Information
Full details
FRE Protect Me 50 is designed for individuals seeking a high-performance, mineral-based facial sunscreen that balances sun protection with daily skincare benefits. Its key win is the proprietary Argania Active Complex, which provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 coverage while keeping skin hydrated, all without the stinging sensation or heavy white cast common in many mineral formulas. A notable caveat is its 40-minute water resistance rating, which requires more frequent reapplication during heavy sweating or swimming compared to longer-lasting synthetic options.

FAQs
Is this sunscreen reef-safe?
Yes, Protect Me 50 is formulated to be reef-safe, meaning it does not contain the chemicals commonly restricted by marine-conscious regulations.
Can I use this if I have oily skin?
Yes, the formula is non-comedogenic, meaning it is designed not to clog pores or contribute to oiliness.
How often should I reapply?
You should reapply at least every two hours, or after 40 minutes of swimming or heavy sweating.
Does it leave a white cast?
It is formulated to be lightweight and typically leaves no white cast on most skin tones when applied correctly.
Is this suitable for children?
While it is hypoallergenic and mineral-based, we recommend consulting with a pediatrician before using new skincare products on children.
Troubleshooting
Product pilling when applying makeup over the top
Ensure your skin is clean and allow the sunscreen to fully absorb and set for 5-10 minutes before applying cosmetics.
Visible white residue on skin
The product is designed to be sheer, but applying too much at once can cause build-up; try applying in two thin, even layers rather than one thick application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Protect Me 50, store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the active ingredients. This sunscreen is compatible with most makeup routines; allow the product to set for three to five minutes before applying foundation or tinted moisturizer to prevent pilling. Always perform a patch test on a small area of your inner arm if you have highly reactive skin, despite the hypoallergenic classification.
