Yes, it is oxybenzone-free and formulated for active use, though we recommend a patch test if you have a history of reactions.

Can I refill the applicator with other sunscreens?

How often should I clean the foam head?

We recommend a quick rinse after every few uses to maintain the foam's softness and hygiene.

Is the product water-resistant?

Is this product safe for face application?

Troubleshooting

Lotion not dispensing evenly

Check if the foam head is clogged with dried sunscreen; rinse thoroughly with warm water and let air dry.

Mirror fogging up

Wipe the integrated mirror with a clean microfiber cloth to remove moisture or oily residue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using your Solex applicator, ensure the cap is securely removed and the foam head is clean. The device is designed for simplicity: simply press the applicator to dispense the desired amount of lotion and spread evenly. Compatibility is universal across all skin types due to the oxybenzone-free formula, but it is always best to perform a patch test if you have sensitive skin. Regarding care, rinse the foam head with warm water after use to prevent sunscreen buildup, which can cause the foam to harden or harbor bacteria. Store the device away from direct sunlight to prevent the formula from separating inside the container.
