FAQs
What does 'Non-Nano' mean in the context of this sunscreen?
'Non-nano' refers to the size of the physical sunscreen particles (Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide). Non-nano particles are larger than 100 nanometers, meaning they are less likely to be absorbed into the skin, offering a gentler protective barrier.
How much sunscreen should I apply?
For effective protection, apply generously. A common guideline is the 'two-finger rule,' where you dispense sunscreen along the length of your index and middle fingers and apply it evenly to your face and neck.
Is this sunscreen suitable for acne-prone skin?
Yes, the formula is designed for all skin types and includes soothing ingredients like Centella Asiatica. However, always patch-test new products if you have highly reactive or acne-prone skin.
Can I wear makeup over this sunscreen?
Yes, this sunscreen can be worn under makeup. Allow it to fully absorb into the skin for a few minutes before applying your foundation or other makeup products for a smooth finish.
How long does the product last after opening?
The shelf life is 2 years from the date of manufacture. Once opened, it is recommended to use it within 12 months for optimal efficacy, provided it's stored correctly.
Does this sunscreen offer protection against blue light?
The primary protection is against UV rays (UVA/UVB). While some ingredients might offer secondary benefits, it is not specifically formulated or tested for blue light protection.
Why is it important to use a sunscreen with SPF50+ PA+++?
SPF50+ provides a very high level of protection against UVB rays, which cause sunburn. PA+++ indicates a high level of protection against UVA rays, which penetrate deeper into the skin and contribute to premature aging and skin damage.
Troubleshooting
Sunscreen feels heavy or greasy.
Ensure you are applying it to clean, dry skin and allow adequate time for absorption before applying makeup. A smaller amount might be suitable for oilier skin types.
Skin feels slightly dry after application.
While moisturizing, ensure your base skincare routine provides sufficient hydration. Layering a hydrating serum or moisturizer underneath can help.
White cast is noticeable.
Apply a thin, even layer and gently pat it into the skin. Ensure thorough blending. For darker skin tones, wait a few minutes for it to settle or consider makeup with SPF.
Product causes irritation or breakouts.
Although hypoallergenic, individual sensitivities can occur. Discontinue use if irritation persists. Ensure thorough cleansing at night to prevent pore congestion.
