Product Information

This lightweight & sheer sunscreen is fast-absorbing with Dry-Touch technology for a non-greasy, matte finish and is formulated with Helioplex for superior sun protection for your skin If possible, you should always apply the face sunscreen as the first layer before you move forward with any makeup or other skin products. However, it’s OK to put certain products such as acne medications on first.

Apply sunscreen 20 minutes before you go out and play and then once again every two hours. Shade and clothing are better than sunscreen at protecting your skin, especially those items with UPF sun protection threaded into the fabric. So in addition to using sunscreen, wear a had with a wide brim, sunglasses, long sleeves and try and schedule an early or late tee time to avoid the sun when it is at its harshest. How often should I apply suscreen on the golf course? Another concern of BP-3 is that it shows some estrogenic activity, though it's probably not relevant when applied topically to the skin. Estrogenic activity was confirmed only in-vitro (in test tubes) and when taken orally by lab animals, and not when used topically as you would normally. In fact, a 2004 follow-up study to examine the estrogenic effect of sunscreens when used topically on the whole body found that "the endogenous levels of reproductive hormones were unaffected" (even though BP-3 could be detected both in plasma and urine, so its absorption is no doubt too good).You’ll want to identify your skin type and note any issues you experience so you can choose the right facial sunscreen formulation. You’ll also want to consider your everyday activities – such as whether you’ll be swimming – in the decision.

If you have sensitive skin or allergies, try to find a face sunscreen made from minerals since these tend to be more gentle on the skin. Considering the sun protection factor (SPF) is crucial for finding a facial sunscreen that will work best for you. Many facial sunscreens start with an SPF rating of at least 30, though you can find them with an SPF of 70 or even higher. You should keep in mind that the higher rating the facial sunscreen has, the longer it protects your skin. In addition, you’ll want to verify that the facial sunscreen is labeled as a broad-spectrum formula since that will keep your skin safe from UVA and UVB rays.Putting on face sunscreen usually isn’t a one-time daily task. A rule of thumb is to reapply it every two hours of sun exposure, whether you’re outside at the beach or inside by a sunny window. If you’re doing water activities, you might reapply more often such as every hour or each time you finish swimming and use a towel to get dry. Most products on the market consist of chemicals that provide sun protection, last long and often come with features such as water resistance. You’ll find you need to use less of these products to do the job as well as reapply them less often. However, these chemical sunscreens also can cause irritation, clog your pores and have negative environmental effects. In addition, there’s up to a 15-minute waiting time from application until protection is in full effect.
