FAQs
What does 'full spectrum of light' protection mean?
It means the product protects against UVA, UVB, visible light (like that emitted by screens), and infrared radiation, which can all contribute to skin damage and aging.
How does this product help with dark spots?
It contains ingredients and technologies that help regulate the pigmentation process, thus reducing the appearance of existing dark spots and preventing new ones from forming during sun exposure.
Can I use this product year-round?
While it's ideal as a daily SPF during warmer months, its comprehensive protection makes it suitable for year-round use, especially if you are concerned about sun damage and hyperpigmentation.
Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?
The product is generally well-tolerated. However, if you have particularly sensitive skin, it's always recommended to perform a patch test on a small area before full application.
What is the texture like?
It has a lightweight, sheer fluid texture that absorbs quickly, leaving an invisible and non-greasy finish on the skin.
How often should I reapply?
You should reapply generously every 2 hours, and also after swimming, sweating, or towel drying to maintain optimal protection.
Does it leave a white cast?
No, the formula is designed to leave an invisible finish and does not typically leave a white cast on the skin.
Troubleshooting
Product feels sticky on the skin
Ensure you are applying to clean, dry skin. If the issue persists, try applying a lighter moisturizer underneath and allow it to absorb fully before applying the Photo Reverse fluid. Avoid applying too much product at once; use a sufficient but not excessive amount.
Difficulty in spreading evenly
Warm a small amount of the product between your fingertips before applying. This can help it glide more smoothly onto the skin. Ensure your skin is well-prepped and hydrated.
Skin feels dry after application
While the product provides hydration, individuals with very dry skin might benefit from applying a dedicated moisturizer underneath. Allow the moisturizer to absorb completely before applying the Photo Reverse.
