Frequently Asked Questions

I noticed my tube doesn’t have the word “Classic” on it. Is that an issue?

Not at all! Our original Body Shield has been rebranded as Body Shield Classic, featuring an improved formula, easier application, and better transfer resistance.

How frequently should I apply the product?

Generously and evenly apply Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 at least 15 minutes before being exposed to environmental stressors. Reapplication should occur every 2 hours, as is standard for all SPF products.

Is it okay to mix this with body lotion?

We don’t recommend mixing Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 with body lotion, as it can dilute the formula. Moreover, the Body Shield SPF 50 already contains apple fruit extract, glycerin, and jojoba esters, which make it an ideal daily moisturizer, so combining it with body lotion is unnecessary.

Will it leave stains on my clothes?

Body Shield Classic’s neutral tint is achieved using iron oxides and mineral pigments, which sit atop the skin instead of being absorbed. While our updated formula boasts enhanced transfer resistance, it isn’t entirely transfer-proof. To minimize color transfer:

Apply in thin layers and wait 1-2 minutes for it to dry between applications.
If the color does transfer, wash the affected area immediately using warm water and a gentle detergent.
Exercise caution when handling delicate or light-colored fabrics.

How can I remove the product from my skin?

Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 is water/sweat resistant for up to 80 minutes but can be easily removed with soap and water.

Is it suitable for the facial application?

We recommend using Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield SPF 50, which is designed for application on the face, neck, and décolleté and contains a hydrating, antioxidant-rich formula. Although Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 can be applied to the face, it has been specifically formulated for body application due to its texture and weightless finish.

Can sensitive skin types use this product?

Absolutely! Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 is a 100% mineral-based, chemical-free product that is oil-free, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, and suitable for all skin types.

Do I need to apply a moisturizer before using the product?

There’s no need for that. Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 contains apple fruit extract, glycerin, and jojoba esters, making it a perfect daily moisturizer.

Will it cause breakouts?

No, Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 is oil-free and non-comedogenic, which means it is specially formulated not to clog pores.

What’s the proper way to apply the product?

Apply a generous and even layer before exposure to environmental stressors, allowing 1-2 minutes for the product to dry between layers. Reapply every two hours as needed.

Does it have a color or tint?

Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 does have a universal shade due to the iron oxides in its composition. However, when applied to the skin, it blends in and dries clear, leaving no white residue like other mineral sunscreen products.

Is it suitable for all skin tones?

Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 is universally tinted, making it appropriate for all skin tones. It dries clear and doesn’t leave any white residue on the skin.

Will it leave a white cast or residue on my skin since it’s a zinc oxide formula?

Unlike some other mineral SPF products, Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 uses our proprietary EnviroScreen® Technology with patented zinc oxide. Combined with iron oxides, this results in a universal shade that leaves no white cast on any skin tone.

How long should I wait before going out in the sun?

As with all SPF products, you should apply Sunforgettable Total Protection Body Shield SPF 50 at least 15 minutes before sun exposure. Remember to reapply every 2 hours to maintain effective protection.
