FAQs
How often should I reapply the SPF50 cream?
Reapply the SPF50 cream frequently, especially after swimming, toweling off, or spending extended periods in the sun. A general guideline is every two hours.
Can the After Sun Balm be used on the face?
Yes, the balm can be used on the face and body. However, if you have sensitive facial skin, it is recommended to perform a patch test first.
Are these products waterproof?
The Cream for Body SPF50 is water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. It's important to reapply after swimming or significant water exposure.
What is the shelf life after opening?
Both products typically have a shelf life of 12 months after opening, indicated by the Period After Opening (PAO) symbol on the packaging.
Do these products help me tan?
The SPF50 cream provides high protection while allowing for a beautiful tan to develop. It does not block tanning entirely but ensures it happens more safely.
What should I do if I experience redness or irritation after sun exposure?
Apply the Soothing After Sun Balm generously to the affected areas. If irritation persists or is severe, consult a healthcare professional.
Troubleshooting
Cream feels heavy or greasy
Ensure you are applying to clean, dry skin and using an appropriate amount. Allow a few minutes for absorption before dressing.
Skin still feels tight after using the balm
Apply a more generous layer of the balm and gently massage it in. Ensure the skin was thoroughly cleansed of any salt or chlorine before application.
Product separates or changes texture
This can sometimes happen with temperature fluctuations. Try storing the product in a consistent, cool environment. If the separation is significant or persists, discontinue use.
