Question:	Where can I find the expiration date on this sunblock
Answer:	Hi B, You can find the expiration date on the back at the very top. It's not in black so it's hard to see. It's imprinted into the bottle itself. Hope this was helpful and thank you for your inquiry.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can i apply it on my 1 year old baby's face
Answer:	I believe it will be fine since NO chemicals just mineral zinc & titanium so it won't sting either Great as a primer if you use makeup too since it will block sun rays
Question:	How thick is this sunscreen? Does it leave a white film
Answer:	It's very thin and liquid like. It doesn't leave a film if you rub it in enough, however if you don't, there's definitely a white film.
Question:	can adults use this
Answer:	Yes. I do sometimes. Just a heads up though, it’s fairly thick white because of the zinc oxide. A little difficult to wash off your skin if you put on a thick coat. However that hasn’t stopped me from using it or repurchasing it multiple times.
Question:	is this waterproof
Answer:	It does repel water fairly well due to the thickness of the zinc oxide. I would definitely apply as directed, far in advance of going into the water and reapply once I’m out and dry again.

Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with UVA and UVB protection. UVB rays are the main cause of sunburn. UVA rays also contribute to skin cancer and premature aging.*

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a 2 pack? Seems high priced for a single 4oz bottle
Answer:	It's very roomy - hip length.
Question:	Is this paraben free
Answer:	I wear a large but ordered an extra large. I think these shirts run small.
Question:	Why do companies still use parabens in their products? This seems like a great oil free moisturizer, but they ruin it with parabens
Answer:	I agree with Tammy, I think they run just a little small. I would go a size larger than what you wear to get it as loose as the photo. Mine is not tight but it also is not as loose as the pic.
Question:	Would this be OK on rosacea prone skin
Answer:	After reading reviews I thought I should order a size bigger, but when I received it, it was too large, so I returned it. I would think you should get your usual size but with the differences in the reviews, there is no guarantee.
