We’ve answered your common questions about Sunscreens.

Are sunscreen sticks effective?

Yes, sunscreen sticks are effective when applied properly. They provide targeted, mess-free protection and are great for on-the-go application. Look for broad-spectrum, mineral sunscreen sticks with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide for the best coverage, and ensure even application by blending well into the skin.

Can sunscreen expire?

Yes, sunscreen does expire. Most sunscreens have an expiration date printed on the packaging, typically lasting two to three years. Expired sunscreen loses its effectiveness, offering reduced UV protection. To ensure optimal defense against sun damage, replace expired products and store them in a cool, dry place.

How does sunscreen work?

Sunscreen protects your skin by absorbing, reflecting, or scattering UV radiation. Mineral sunscreens use ingredients like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide to create a physical barrier, while chemical sunscreens absorb UV rays and convert them into heat, preventing skin damage. Both help reduce the risk of sunburn, aging, and skin cancer.

What sunscreen is reef safe?

A reef-safe sunscreen is free from harmful chemicals like oxybenzone and octinoxate, which contribute to coral bleaching. Mineral sunscreens with non-nano zinc oxide or titanium dioxide are the best reef-safe options. These formulas protect your skin while preserving marine ecosystems, making them ideal for ocean-friendly sun care.

Why is sunscreen important?

Sunscreen is essential for protecting your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays, which cause premature aging, sunburn, and increase the risk of skin cancer. Daily use helps prevent hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and sun-induced skin damage, ensuring healthier, more youthful skin year-round.

Is your routine all set?

A full skincare routine is essential because your skin needs more than basic cleansing and hydration to stay healthy. Cleansers remove dirt, but serums target specific issues like aging or dark spots, while moisturizers lock in hydration and sunscreen protects from damage. Investing in the full routine ensures long-term skin health and visible results.
