Q: Why do I need SPF?
A: SPF is vital for your skin health, as it defends against the damaging effects of UV rays. It's important to remember that UV rays penetrate through clouds and windows – so be sure to wear your SPF whether it's overcast or raining and whether you're inside or outside. This way, your skin will experience less sun damage and so

Q: What is the right amount of SPF?
A: The two-finger rule is a quick way to be sure you're applying adequate protection to your face. Simply apply SPF to the entire length of your pointer and middle fingers.

Q: Will the CALM Barrier Protect Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 leave a noticeable white cast on my skin?
A: The CALM Barrier Protect Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 has a silky, light cream texture with a sheer finish. As with most non-tinted mineral sunscreens, some skin tones may see a slight white cast.

Q: Can I use the CALM Barrier Protect Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 around my eyes?
A: Yes. Mineral sunscreens such as the CALM Barrier Protect Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 are unlikely to irritate delicate skin, making them a great option for use around the eye area. Just be sure not to apply too close to the lash line to avoid the formula spreading into the eyes.

Q: Is it really okay to apply makeup over my sunscreen? I want to be sure I get maximum protection.
A: Yes. While we typically recommend sunscreen as your last daytime skin care step, applying makeup over top is fine if you're following these simple steps: 1) Wait 3–5 minutes for the sunscreen to set before applying your foundation.  2) Apply the foundation in smooth, downward motions, no rubbing back and forth. 3) Do not use excess pressure or over-blend when applying makeup. 4) We also recommend opting for a foundation, BB cream or tinted moisturiser that contains sunscreen too. Layering sunscreens with the same SPF actives is a great way to ensure maximum protection.
