FAQs
Is this sunscreen suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, this sunscreen is formulated with mineral filters and is chemical-free, making it generally well-suited for sensitive skin.
What does 'non-nano' mean?
'Non-nano' refers to the size of the mineral particles (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) used. Non-nano particles are larger and are not absorbed into the bloodstream, making them a preferred choice for many mineral sunscreens.
How often should I reapply the sunscreen?
You should reapply at least every two hours, and immediately after swimming, sweating heavily, or towel drying to maintain protection.
Is this product tested on animals?
Information regarding animal testing is typically found on the product packaging or the manufacturer's website. Suntribe is known for its commitment to natural and ethical practices.
Can I use this sunscreen under makeup?
Yes, you can use this sunscreen under makeup. Allow it to absorb into the skin for a few minutes before applying makeup for best results.
What is the shelf life of the sunscreen?
Typically, unopened sunscreen has a shelf life of 2-3 years. Once opened, it's best to use it within 12 months for optimal efficacy. Check the product packaging for specific expiry dates.
How does this sunscreen protect against UVA and UVB rays?
The mineral filters, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, create a physical barrier on the skin that reflects and scatters both UVA and UVB rays away from the skin.
Troubleshooting
White cast on skin
Apply a smaller amount at a time and rub in thoroughly. Ensure skin is slightly damp for easier blending. Warming the product between fingers before application can also help.
Sunscreen feels heavy or greasy
Ensure you are applying the correct amount. For facial use, consider using a thinner layer or a dedicated facial sunscreen if preferred. Allow time for the sunscreen to absorb before applying makeup.
Skin irritation
Although mineral-based, some individuals may have sensitivities. Discontinue use if irritation persists and consult a dermatologist.
Product difficult to spread
Warm the sunscreen between your hands before applying. Ensure you are applying to clean, dry skin.
