FAQ
Understanding SPF and PA: What do the ratings really mean?
SPF (Sun Protection Factor) is the primary measure of a product's ability to shield your skin from UVB rays. A higher SPF rating indicates prolonged protection, effectively preventing painful sunburn and skin inflammation.
The PA (Protection Grade of UVA) measures a product’s defence against UVA rays. There are four levels, ranging from PA+ to PA++++, with more plusses meaning stronger protection.
Do I need to cleanse after using sunscreen?
Yes. Yii UV Protector is designed to be water-resistant and long-wearing. To ensure your pores are thoroughly purified, we recommend a double-cleanse using Mild Cleansing followed by the Face Wash Foam.
Do I need to reapply sunscreen?
No reapplication is necessary under normal conditions. Yii UV Protector
features Japan’s highest 2-star water-resistant rating, providing up to 12
hours of continuous UV protection. However, if you are swimming or perspiring
heavily, we recommend patting the skin dry and reapplying to ensure optimal
efficacy.
How long before heading out should I apply sunscreen?
With Yii UV Protector (SPF 50 / PA++++), there is no wait. Unlike chemical sunscreens that require 15 to 30 minutes to absorb, Yii UV Protector is a pure physical sunscreen. Its gentle, hypoallergenic formula provides instant protection — simply apply and you are ready to step out into the sun immediately.
Is Yii UV Protector suitable for sensitive skin?
Sensitive skin is particularly vulnerable to UV rays, which can easily trigger redness, peeling, and discomfort. This makes finding the right protection a priority. Yii UV Protector is a 100% physical formula specifically developed for sensitive and compromised skin barriers. Free from chemical filters, fragrances, and mineral oils, it has passed U.S. FDA-standard allergy testing to ensure a gentle and reliable experience.
Is Yii sunscreen fully certified as "Ocean Friendly" and "Coral Friendly"?
As "Ocean Friendly" status depends on factors like overall biodegradability and there is currently no globally unified scientific standard, we cannot guarantee 100% compliance with all potential definitions. However, we explicitly confirm that Yii products are formulated without ingredients banned by major conservation areas like Hawaii and Palau (e.g., Oxybenzone, Octinoxate, Octocrylene, 4-MBC, and Parabens), strictly adhering to current "Coral Friendly" protection laws.
