FAQs
What does SPF 50 mean?
SPF 50 indicates that the sunscreen will allow approximately 1/50th of the sun's UVB rays to reach your skin. It provides a high level of protection against sunburn.
Can I use this sunscreen every day?
Yes, PharmaClinix Sun Blockex Cream SPF 50 is designed for daily use to protect your skin from harmful sun damage.
Is this product waterproof?
The product description does not state it is waterproof. It is recommended to reapply frequently, especially after swimming or sweating.
What is the difference between UVA and UVB rays?
UVB rays are the primary cause of sunburn, while UVA rays penetrate deeper into the skin and contribute to premature aging and skin damage.
How long does the hydration last?
The cream provides long-lasting nourishment, but for continuous hydration and protection, reapplication is recommended throughout the day, especially after exposure to elements.
Can children use this sunscreen?
While formulated for general use, it's always best to check with a pediatrician for specific sunscreen recommendations for children.
Does it contain any physical sunscreens?
Yes, Sun Blockex contains both chemical and physical sunscreens to ensure comprehensive protection.
Troubleshooting
Product feels sticky or heavy.
Ensure you are applying to clean, dry skin and allow sufficient time for absorption before applying makeup or reapplying. Use a slightly smaller amount if your skin is very oily.
Skin feels dry after application.
While formulated for hydration, individual skin needs vary. Consider applying a light moisturizer before the sunscreen if you have very dry skin.
Sunscreen seems to pill under makeup.
Ensure your skincare routine is layered correctly, allowing each product to absorb fully. Try applying the sunscreen first and letting it set completely before makeup.
