  • How do I apply sunscreen?
    For effective protection, apply our sunscreen 15 minutes before you go out in the sun. This allows time for the sunscreen to bind to your skin. Remember to cover all exposed areas generously – most adults need about one ounce, which is roughly the size of a shot glass. Our sunscreen offers up to 40 minutes of water resistance, ideal for activities involving water or sweat. However, it's crucial to reapply immediately after swimming, sweating heavily, or towel drying. Even if you are not in the water or sweating, we recommend reapplying sunscreen every two hours to maintain optimal skin protection.
  • Do you use artificial preservatives and additives?
    No, we do not use artificial preservatives or additives in our products. At Binda Botanicals, our dedication to organic and vegan principles means we carefully select natural, plant-based ingredients for every formulation. To ensure safety and freshness, we rely on natural alternatives, maintaining the integrity of our products without compromising quality or our ethical values. This approach reflects our commitment to creating skincare that is not only effective and gentle but also environmentally conscious and aligned with our responsibility to the planet.
