Question 2

Is this a full spectrum sunscreen?

Accepted Answer

There is actually no such thing as true "full spectrum" Sunscreen.
All our sunscreens exceed the FDA’s requirements for broad-spectrum claims, offering protection from both UVA and UVB rays. Unless your sunscreen is broad spectrum, it may only protect you from the UVB rays that cause sunburn. The problem is that the UVA rays penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin – causing wrinkles and premature aging, as well as damage at the cellular level.

When you chose a sunscreen labeled BROAD-SPECTRUM, you are purchasing a product that has been tested by a third-party, FDA-regulated laboratory. A sunscreen needs to reflect (mineral) or absorb (chemical) at least 90% of the UV rays to be called broad spectrum. Although some suppliers have said that titanium dioxide does not offer broad-spectrum protection, all of our sunscreens exceed the FDA’s requirements.

Question 3

how much do i need?

Accepted Answer

Short answer:
For most people's face, neck, ears and whatever you lose on your fingers while applying, 1/4 teaspoon is the correct amount for the listed SPF.

Long answer:
All sunscreen get their SPF rating based on the same amount of suncreen, which is 2 milligrams per square centimeter.

For most people's face, that's 1/8 teaspoon, or 775 milligrams plus whatever you lose on your fingers while applying.

For your face and neck combined, you'll need about 50 percent more (1200 milligrams), so a little under a 1/4 teaspoon.

The saying "a little goes a long way" is false when it comes to sunscreen since the SPF rating isn't generated by using a little bit.
The correct amount gets you the correct SPF. A little bit gets you a little bit of the SPF.
