Professional Recommendation
Use enough product to cover every exposed area evenly; tint coverage is not a substitute for adequate sunscreen quantity. Blend in sections to achieve a uniform finish.
Apply last, warm between fingers, cover exposed skin, blend evenly, wait 15 minutes, and reapply at least every two hours.
Safety Information
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Apply liberally to all exposed skin 15 minutes before going out in the sun. Reapply at least every two hours, and always after swimming, towel drying, or heavy sweating. Sunscreen is one layer of sun care, not the whole of it — use it together with shade, a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and covering clothing, especially between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Not recommended for:
- Children under 6 months of age.
- Broken, irritated, or sunburned skin.
- Skin that is still settling after a professional treatment, until your provider tells you it is fine to resume.
- Use as the only sun measure during long, unshaded outdoor exposure.
- Anyone with a known sensitivity to any ingredient in the list above.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose the lotion or the compact?
The lotion is your main application. It is the format that lets you put on enough product across the face, neck, ears, and décolleté in the morning. sunbetter TONE SMART SPF 68 Sunscreen Compact is the reapplication format — pressed on over makeup, at a desk or on a beach chair, without redoing your face. Most people who are outdoors regularly keep both.
How much should I use on my face?
Roughly a nickel-sized amount for the face alone, plus more for the neck, ears, and chest. Warm it between your fingers, then blend in sections. If you are using so little that the tint barely shows, you are under the amount the SPF number is based on.
Can I wear it instead of foundation?
Yes for many people. The tone-adapting tint gives light, buildable coverage and works as a primer if you want more on top. Just do not reduce the amount for cosmetic reasons — apply the full quantity first, then adjust with makeup.
Is it water resistant?
The formula is water resistant, which means it holds up for a limited time in water or sweat, not indefinitely. Reapply after swimming, after towel drying, and after any stretch of heavy sweating.
Where does it go in my routine?
Last, after serums and moisturizer. Let Trio Rebalancing Moisture Treatment or Trio Luxe Moisture Treatment settle for a minute or two, then apply this over the top and give it 15 minutes before heading outside.
