Helps shield skin from harmful UVB (burning) and UVA (longer-term aging) rays when used properly.
3. Water / sweat resistance
Offers lasting protection during swimming or physical activity, up to 80 minutes. This is especially useful for active children.

Limitations & Considerations
No sunscreen can provide 100% protection — proper use plus additional sun-wise measures (shade, protective clothing, hats, etc.) are still needed.
Mineral / zinc formulations can sometimes leave a white cast, especially on darker skin tones, though many formulas try to minimize this.
Frequent reapplication is required — especially after swimming, sweating, or wiping.
Though water-resistant, it is not waterproof — protection diminishes over continued exposure.
In extremely hot climates, the formula may separate or become more fluid; shaking before use (if applicable) is a good habit (for similar products).
