INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Apply a generous, even amount of product as a final step in your morning routine. In case of prolonged exposure to the sun, swimming or outdoor sports, reapply Solar II regularly and generously.
At night, be sure to double cleanse to avoid leaving residue before applying night care products. It is recommended to use an oil-based cleanser (Atomic), as it quickly dissolves the water-resistant components of sunscreens.

What is the difference between Solar I SPF30 and Solar II SPF50?

Compared to Solar I, Solar II has a higher sun protection factor (SPF) and, after application, leaves a slightly mattified appearance on the skin. Both products contain new generation sunscreens and antioxidant and moisturizing components.

What does the UVA-PF label mean?

A high SPF provides protection against UVB radiation (B as in "BURNING") which causes burns on the skin surface, while UVA radiation (A as in "AGEING") which penetrates deeper into the dermis causes premature skin aging. The number next to the SPF is the UVB protection level. For the product to protect against UVA radiation, the tested level of UVA protection must be at least 1/3 of the UVB protection. Therefore, for Solar II SPF50 to be effective against UVA, its UVA factor must be at least 50:3 (16.6), and Solar II SPF50 has a high UVA-PF of 49.1.

SPF30 or SPF50, which one to choose?

Provided you have applied enough product, SPF30 means you are protected from the sun 30 times more than you would be without using a UV protection product, and SPF50 50 times more. In practice, we tend to use significantly lower amounts of SPF products, so in case of intense sun exposure, it is advisable to periodically reapply the UV protection product, especially if we swim, sweat, towel off, etc. The choice depends on your skin, its (over)sensitivity to the sun and your preferences, as Solar I SPF30 and Solar II SPF50 provide a different finish after application.

SPF products often clog my pores, will this happen if I use Solar II SPF50?

Solar II SPF50 has a light, fast absorbing and non-comedogenic oil-free texture. However, it is important to emphasize that any product with a protective factor must be completely removed from the skin. If you do not perform a thorough cleansing and do not remove the protective factor properly, this can lead to unwanted build-up on the skin, which can lead to clogged pores. In this case, we recommend using Atomic o Melt Milk as the first step in facial cleansing.
