FAQs

What does SPF 50 mean?

SPF 50 indicates that the product provides a high level of protection against UVB rays, allowing significantly fewer of them to reach your skin compared to unprotected skin. It helps prevent sunburn.

Why is a mineral sunscreen recommended for sensitive skin?

Mineral sunscreens use active mineral ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide that sit on top of the skin and physically block UV rays. They are generally considered gentler and less likely to cause irritation compared to chemical sunscreens, which absorb UV rays.

How often should I reapply this sunscreen?

For optimal protection, it is recommended to reapply sunscreen every two hours, especially if you are sweating or swimming. For daily, low-exposure activities, reapplying once in the afternoon may suffice.

Can I wear makeup over this sunscreen?

Yes, you can wear makeup over the Lancaster Sun Perfect Air 50 Sensitive Mineral. Ensure the sunscreen has had a few minutes to absorb into the skin before applying your foundation or other makeup products.

What is Centella Asiatica extract used for?

Centella Asiatica extract, also known as Cica or Gotu Kola, is an ingredient known for its soothing, regenerative, and antioxidant properties. It helps to strengthen the skin barrier, calm irritation, and reduce redness.

Does this product protect against UVA rays as well?

Yes, the SPF 50 rating typically refers to UVB protection, but this product also provides protection against UVA rays, which contribute to premature aging and long-term skin damage.

How should I store the product?

Store the sunscreen in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use.

Troubleshooting

Product leaves a white cast on the skin.

Ensure you shake the product very well before application. Apply a smaller amount and massage thoroughly in circular motions. Allow it to absorb fully before applying makeup.

Skin feels slightly heavy or greasy after application.

Ensure you are applying the product to clean, dry skin. Use a slightly smaller amount or try blotting gently with a tissue after the initial absorption period. For very oily skin, consider using a mattifying primer over the sunscreen.

Product seems to pill or roll off the skin.

This can happen if too much product is applied or if applied over other products that haven't fully absorbed. Try applying less product, waiting longer between skincare steps, or using a gentle exfoliating product periodically to remove dead skin cells.

Redness or irritation occurs after application.

Although formulated for sensitive skin, individual reactions can occur. Discontinue use if irritation persists and consult a dermatologist. Ensure you are not reacting to any other skincare ingredients used concurrently.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup and Application:

  1. Shake Well: Before each use, shake the bottle vigorously to ensure the mineral filters are properly dispersed.
  2. Apply to Clean Skin: Use on clean, dry skin as the last step in your morning skincare routine.
  3. Massage In: Apply a sufficient amount to your face and gently massage using circular motions until fully absorbed.
  4. Regular Use: Apply daily every morning for consistent protection.

Compatibility:

This product is suitable for all skin types, with a particular benefit for sensitive skin due to its mineral-based formula. It can be used in conjunction with other skincare products, but it should be applied after serums and moisturizers and before makeup.

Care:

Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is securely closed after each use to maintain product integrity. No specific cleaning is required for the product itself, but keeping the bottle exterior clean is recommended.
