IS THIS PRODUCT VEGAN?Yes! This product contains no animal derivatives and is now certified by The Vegan Society. New to skin fitness? Find out everything you need to know about skin fitness and why it’s important WILL THIS PRODUCT LEAVE A WHITE CAST?Zinc Oxide is a white mineral and there is potential for the product to leave a white residue on the skin, across all skin tones however this may appear more pronounced on darker skin tones. We have taken measures to reduce this and enhance usability by using the least whitening grade of Zinc Oxide and adding a low level non-cosmetic tint to help balance this. This is not to colour match skin tone, but to offset the Zinc and aid blending into the skin.

How is best to reapply? If reapplying over makeup, we would recommend to reapply with a beauty blender and lightly dab all over the face until it's been absorbed, and each area is covered. Reapply frequently, especially after perspiring, swimming or towelling.To remain protected when outdoors, reapply sunscreen every two hours, or immediately after swimming or sweating. People who get sunburned usually didn't use enough sunscreen, didn't reapply it after being in the sun, or used an expired product. Your skin is exposed to the sun's harmful UV rays every time you go outside, even on cloudy days and in the winter.

CAN I LAYER IT WITH OTHER INGREDIENTS?Yes! You can safely use it with all other ingredients during your AM routine. What products should I not layer together? > What is the true difference between SPF 30 and 50? Various research states that the SPF (sun protection factor) is a number that helps determine roughly how long you can stay in the sun for without burning vs your norm without protection. For example, if your skin would usually burn after 10 minutes of sun exposure, then an SPF 30 estimates protection for 300 minutes and an SPF 50 estimates 500 minutes of protection, however this can differ based on skin sensitivity and the strength of the sun rays. WHY ISN'T IT AVAILABLE IN CANADA?In Canada, our product would be classified as a Natural health product, which requires certification to be able to produce. In the US our SPF is classified as an over the counter (OTC) drug, and in UK and EU it’s a cosmetic item; both of which our manufacturer is certified to produce. While Polyglutamic Acid, commonly abbreviated as “PGA,” is an acid, it does not exfoliate, but has similar benefits to Hyaluronic Acid. What makes PGA unique is that it is water-soluble providing moisture to the skin surface. It minimizes the evaporation of water by creating a thin, breathable film on the skin that reduces water from escaping. And it is considered a perfect priming ingredient for foundation – smoothing the skin surface and leaving it dewy and glass-like.To start with, always apply an adequate base before putting on any makeup – this should be the final step in your daily skincare routine. Now, when the time comes to re-apply SPF, you can simply use a sponge to blot sunscreen on top of your makeup gently. Just add some sunscreen to a dampened sponge and lightly dab it all over your face until absorbed, ensuring every area is adequately covered. WHAT IS A MINERAL SUNSCREEN?There are only two ingredients that are classified as mineral sunscreens, Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. Zinc Oxide provides broad spectrum protection. A SPF 30 Sunscreen that offers broad spectrum protection from both UVA and UVB rays. This 100% Mineral formula, containing Zinc Oxide, is non-greasy and leaves a natural, mattified finish on the skin. To help enhance usability we have added a low level non-cosmetic tint to help counter balance and assist blending into the skin. How long should I leave between applying & sun exposure? We would recommend waiting 15 mins between applying the product and sun exposure. This is to let the SPF absorb into the skin for optimal protection.

If reapplying over makeup, we would recommend to reapply with a beauty blender and lightly dab all over the face until it's been absorbed, and each area is covered. It’s no secret that SPF should be used daily and is imperative to protecting skin from UV rays and hyperpigmentation, along with being the best preventative measure for fine lines and wrinkles. Applying Every Two Hours: Apply sunscreen before going outdoors 15 minutes before. This gives your skin enough time to absorb it and provide protection against the harmful UV rays. If you wait until you are in the sun to apply sunscreen, your skin is unprotected and can burn.I have to remind myself that the difference between an SPF 30 and 50 is slight. An SPF 30 defends the skin from approximately 97% of UVB rays, whereas a 50 filters out 98%. So it isn’t as big a deal as it sounds. I just can’t help wanting everything to be that one percent more! Anyway… First and foremost, this product provides your skin the daily protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays with organic chemical UV filters. The element of this formulation that makes it unique is its 8% Hydration Trio of Polyglutamic Acid, Glycerin and Squalane. These hydration heroes work together to attract and retain moisture as well as improve hydration in the skin, while increasing the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) in your skin to maintain a healthy skin appearance. But that's not the only standout component in the tube. Dobos points out a few other stars on the ingredients list. "These definitely aren't the sexiest ingredient names, but they are pretty great: C9-12 alkane and coco-caprylate," she says. "These both have naturally derived emollients that are being used as a substitute for cyclic silicones." These two make the sunscreen look glowy without feeling oily or greasy.
