FAQ

Q: What skin undertones is the Cool tint suitable for?
A: Obagi Sun Shield Tint Cool is specifically formulated for individuals with cool undertones, including pink, red, or bluish undertones. It is particularly suitable for fair skin that burns easily in the sun (Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-III). If you have golden, yellow, or olive undertones, the Warm tint may be more suitable.

Q: Can I wear this sunscreen under makeup?
A: Yes, the lightweight, non-greasy formula makes an excellent base for makeup. The sheer tint can also be worn alone for a natural, even complexion without the need for additional coverage.

Q: How does the Thermic Micro-Shield Crystal Technology work?
A: This innovative technology uses reflective crystals to disperse heat and infrared rays at the skin's surface before they can penetrate and cause oxidative damage. This helps buffer the skin from heat-derived oxidative stress that contributes to premature ageing.

Q: Is this sunscreen suitable for sensitive skin?
A: Yes, Obagi Sun Shield Tint Cool is hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, fragrance-free, and dermatologist-tested, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. However, we always recommend performing a patch test before first use.

Q: How often should I reapply this sunscreen?
A: Reapply every 2 hours for continued protection, or immediately after swimming, sweating, or towel drying. Apply liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure for optimal protection.

Q: Does this product leave a white cast?
A: No, the sheer cool tint is designed to blend seamlessly into the skin without leaving a white cast, unlike many mineral-only sunscreens. The tint actually helps to enhance your skin's natural undertones.
