Question 1

retinyl palmitate is said to be in this product by some  customers but info says that's not an ingredient. Can the seller validate which is correct?

Accepted Answer

Hello,

Retinyl palmitate (Vitamin A) is used to protect certain ingredients from rancidity. It is used in only one product, our Mineral SPF 30 Brush-On Sun Defense. Under normal, day-to-day activities and concentrations, Vitamin A serves as a healthful antioxidant. The concern with Vitamin A is when it's used at extremely high concentrations in sunscreens combined with relatively intense sun exposure. We can assure you that this is not the case in our Mineral SPF 30 Brush-On Sun Defense. We only use a very small concentration of Vitamin A, which we firmly believe to be safe for overall and skin health. Additionally, this ingredient listing is on our website. https://www.mineralfusion.com/products/mineral-spf-30-brush-on-sun-screen-powder

Question 2

i can not get get the powder to come out! what am i doing wrong??

Accepted Answer

Mine never worked. I tipped the powder into a small sealed contaier (like for salad dressing!) and used the brush. I only use this over a cream mineral sunscreen (B*dg*r have a tinted one, even rose scented) for touch-ups, mind- not trusting only this powder with my super-fair facial skin.

Question 3

How does this look on olive skin?

Accepted Answer

It gives you a glow, as if you had just put on moisturizer. If you have good/blemish free skin, you won't even need foundation or highlighter. No white residue.

Question 4

what is the expiration date?

Accepted Answer

Hello,

For this product, the expiration date is 2 years from the date of manufacturing. Lot code information is located on the bottom of the product. Lot numbers are assigned sequentially following the format YX##, where:

## is the production batch number

We hope this information is helpful - thank you.
