FAQ

What tests have been carried out on the SPF 50?
The ISO 24444:2019 in vivo evaluation of the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) which shows our sunscreen is an SPF 50 
UVA Protection Factor was carried out through the  ISO 24443:2012 in vitro test.  To meet the UVA protection labelling requirements of ISO 24443:2012 the UVA-PF value must be at least ⅓ of the SPF value determined by the ISO 24444:2019 protocol. Ours achieved this and can carry the UVA Logo.

How often should I reapply this SPF?  
We recommend reapplying every 2 hours or after swimming, perspiring or towelling.  
 
How much SPF should I apply to my face? 
Most healthcare professionals would recommend applying over half a teaspoon to face and neck. Or use the 2 finger rule. If you use less SPF than recommended, you significantly reduce the level of protection
 
Does your sunscreen have UVA protection? 
Yes, our SPF 50 Face Serum has UVA protection which is why you can find the UVA logo on the packaging, the test carried out was ISO 24443:2012 in vitro UVA study. 

What does broad spectrum mean?  
It means that it is protective against both UVA and UVB rays.   

Is it a mineral or chemical SPF and what’s the difference? 
Lucy Bee SPF 50 Face Sunscreen is a chemical sunscreen. The benefits of chemical SPF is that you don’t get a white cast on your skin after applying, they’re ultra-lightweight and don’t leave your skin feeling sticky or greasy.  
  • Mineral sunscreens, work by blocking and reflecting UV rays, however it is important to note that they do also absorb UV radiation too.  
  • Chemical sunscreens work by filtering and absorbing UV rays, turning them into heat. By absorbing the rays it helps to protect your skin from damage. To read more about the difference between chemical and mineral sunscreens read our blog here.
