When it comes to sun protection, Solscreen is more than just a sunscreen—it’s a nourishing, natural solution designed to keep your skin safe while giving it the hydration and healing it needs. To get the most out of your Solscreen, proper application is key. Here’s everything you need to know about how to use it effectively.

How Does Tallow Sunscreen Work?

Before diving into the Solscreen application tips, let’s take a closer look at how tallow sunscreen works.

Tallow, especially when sourced from grass-fed beef, is rich in fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K. These nutrients help to nourish, repair, and protect your skin. When combined with non-nano zinc oxide, Solscreenacts as a physical barrier that blocks harmful UV rays from damaging your skin. Unlike chemical sunscreens, which absorb UV radiation, tallow-based sunscreens create a shield on your skin’s surface.

Key Benefits of Tallow Sunscreen:

• Rich in nutrients for skin repair
• Anti-inflammatory and hydrating properties
• Creates a physical barrier against UV rays

How to Apply Solscreen for Maximum Protection

1. Apply Generously

Start with a generous amount of Solscreen Tallow Sun Balm SPF 30. Since it's a mineral sunscreen, it’s important to use enough product to create a thick layer on your skin. This ensures optimal protection and hydration.

Tip: Focus on areas most exposed to the sun, like your face, neck, and arms.

2. Apply 15-30 Minutes Before Sun Exposure

For maximum sun protection, apply Solscreen 15-30 minutes before going outside. This gives the product time to settle into your skin and form a protective barrier.

Why this matters: Applying sunscreen just before you head out doesn’t allow enough time for proper absorption, potentially leaving parts of your skin exposed.

3. Reapply Every 2 Hours

Even though Solscreen provides long-lasting protection, reapplying every 2 hours ensures your skin remains fully covered, especially if you’re sweating or swimming. If you’re in intense sun for long periods, reapply more frequently for maximum sun defense.

Pro Tip: Always apply after swimming or wiping your face with a towel.

Solscreen Application for Specific Skin Types

For Dry Skin:

If you have dry skin, Solscreen’s Tallow Sun Balm is a great choice due to its rich, hydrating properties. Its natural oils deeply moisturize while offering sun protection.

Tip: Apply Solscreen after your normal moisturizer for added hydration.

For Sensitive Skin:

Because Solscreen is made with natural, gentle ingredients, it’s suitable for even the most sensitive skin. If you’re worried about irritation, try patch-testing a small amount on your inner wrist before full application.

Tip: Avoid fragrances or essential oils, which can be irritating, and opt for unscented versions like Solscreen's.
