FAQs

What SPF level does this lotion provide?

This lotion provides SPF15, which is considered moderate sun protection against UVA and UVB rays.

How often should I reapply the sunscreen?

You should reapply frequently, especially after swimming, sweating, or towel drying, and at least every two hours to maintain effective protection.

Is this sunscreen suitable for children?

Yes, the product is suitable for adults and families. However, always supervise children during application and ensure adequate protection for prolonged sun exposure.

Can I use this sunscreen if I have sensitive skin?

While suitable for general use, individuals with particularly sensitive skin should perform a patch test on a small area before full application. For prolonged exposure, consider a higher SPF product.

What does 'water-resistant' mean for this product?

Water-resistant means the sunscreen maintains its SPF protection level for a specified period (usually 40 or 80 minutes) while swimming or sweating. It does not mean waterproof, and reapplication is still necessary.

How do I use the press-to-dispense bottle?

Press the dispenser down firmly to release the lotion. Apply generously to exposed skin. Ensure the cap is replaced securely after use.

What is the size of this product?

The Calypso Press & Protect Sun Lotion comes in a 200ml bottle.

Are there any special warnings for using this sunscreen?

Yes, for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly if this happens. Limit time in direct sunlight even while using sunscreen. Reapply frequently.

Troubleshooting

Lotion not dispensing

Ensure the cap is fully removed and the pump mechanism is upright. Press down firmly and steadily on the dispenser. If clogged, try wiping the nozzle gently with a dry cloth.

Dispenser seems sticky or difficult to press

Wipe the area around the dispenser with a dry, soft cloth. Ensure no external residue is obstructing the mechanism. Store with the cap securely fastened to prevent drying.

Product feels greasy or heavy on skin

You may be applying too much. Try using less lotion per application and spreading it thinner. Ensure you are allowing it to absorb fully before dressing.

Sunscreen washes off easily despite being water-resistant

Water-resistant does not mean waterproof. Reapply frequently, especially after swimming, sweating, or towel drying, as per the product instructions.
