Product Information

Full details

This guide is for individuals seeking a daily facial sunscreen that offers high UV protection while also providing hydration and soothing benefits. The key win is its lightweight, non-sticky formula that's suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and troubled skin. A potential caveat is its reliance on chemical filters for UV protection, which some users may prefer to avoid. This sunscreen boasts SPF50+ PA++++, a reef-friendly formulation, and incorporates SOME BY MI's signature Truecica™ complex for calming and moisturizing effects.

FAQs

Is this sunscreen suitable for acne-prone skin?

Yes, it is dermatologically tested and formulated with mild ingredients. Its lightweight, non-sticky texture and soothing properties make it suitable for acne-prone and sensitive skin types.

Can I use this sunscreen with other SOME BY MI products?

Yes, this sunscreen is designed to be compatible with other skincare products, including those from the SOME BY MI range. Use it as the final step in your morning routine.

How much product should I apply for adequate protection?

A general guideline is to use about a nickel-sized amount for the face and neck. Ensure an even layer is applied 15-20 minutes before sun exposure for optimal protection.

Does this sunscreen offer protection against blue light?

While the primary function is UV protection (UVA/UVB), the formulation's moisturizing and soothing ingredients may offer some secondary benefits. However, it is not specifically marketed as a blue light protector.

Is this product tested on animals?

SOME BY MI is generally a cruelty-free brand. However, specific product testing details should be verified on the official brand website or packaging.

What does 'reef-friendly' mean for this sunscreen?

Reef-friendly formulations typically avoid ingredients like oxybenzone and octinoxate, which are known to be harmful to coral reefs. This product's formulation aims to minimize environmental impact on marine ecosystems.

How long is the shelf life after opening?

Typically, skincare products like sunscreens have a shelf life of 6-12 months after opening, indicated by a PAO (Period After Opening) symbol on the packaging. Store it as recommended to maintain efficacy.

Troubleshooting

Sunscreen feels heavy or sticky.

Ensure you are applying it to a clean, dry face and allow a few minutes for it to absorb before applying makeup. Using less product might also help.

Skin feels slightly irritated after application.

While formulated for sensitive skin, individual reactions can occur. Consider patch testing on a small area first. Ensure your skin is well-moisturized before application, as applying sunscreen to very dry skin can sometimes exacerbate sensitivity. If irritation persists, discontinue use.

White cast is visible.

Gently pat the sunscreen into the skin rather than rubbing. Ensure you are not applying too thick a layer. The formula is designed to be sheer, so excessive white cast may indicate over-application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers robust sun protection with SPF50+ PA++++.
  • Lightweight, non-greasy, and leaves no white cast.
  • Hydrating and soothing formula beneficial for sensitive skin.
  • Reef-friendly formulation is environmentally conscious.
  • Suitable for daily use as the last step in a skincare routine.

Cons

  • Relies on chemical UV filters, which may not suit all preferences.
