FAQ

Get answers to your most pressing questions

What is Short Contact Method?

Short Contact Method is a technique to train your skin to acclimate to strong active ingredients in skin care products. Begin by allowing the product to sit on the skin for a few minutes, then rinse with water. Gradually increase the time until skin adjusts. Then use as directed. You only need a very small amount of product. Less is more.

What is Skin Cycling?

Skin Cycling is a practice where you use a skin care regimen for two days. If bothersome irritation occurs, you stop regimen for two days. Then repeat until skin adjusts.

Can I use Tinted Brightening Primer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 on other parts of my body?

This SPF is designed to specifically target the needs of your face, neck and décolleté—areas commonly affected by dark spots and sun damage. We love that you’re thinking about the protection of your entire body, but recommend limiting the use of this product to your face. Be sure to use a Broad Spectrum SPF 30+ for the rest of your body.

Why is Tinted Brightening Primer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 tinted and not sheer?

Dr Sonia MD™ created a tinted SPF for the sheer (see what we did there?!) fact that mineral-based tinted sunscreens have more benefits. They help to even out tone while protecting skin. It has the ability to block UV rays, offers protection from long-term sun damage and is shown to reduce brown spots in skin of color.
