Have you ever seen a “water resistant” designation on your sunscreen bottle? Wondered what that means? 🤔

Well, according to the FDA it designates how long (either 40 or 80 minutes) the sunscreen will stay on wet skin. The sunscreen must undergo testing before it earns the water resistant designation. Even if your skin remains dry while using a water resistant sunscreen, you'll need to reapply the sunscreen every 2 hours. ☀️
