Upon application, unkissed immediately feels very moist, hydrating, and nourishing to the skin. It will feel wet for the first 5 mins of application. Ensure you’re applying it on a thin layer all over the exposed parts of your face, and wherever you feel it's wet keep dabbing on that spot for the skin to dry down, but try not to rub it around too much. Once fully dried down (in 15-20 mins), it settles into a normal to satin finish on the skin, depending on your skin type. Hence, ensure that you apply unkissed at least 20 minutes before stepping out for a natural finish.

Pilling can occur because of various reasons like:

1. The order in which all the rest of your skincare products in the routine are applied. The general rule of thumb is to apply from the lightest to the heaviest.
2. Difference in the formulation of the products - water-based and oil-based products do not mix well together. You can take a look at the ingredient list to understand the basic formulation of a product.
3. Layering too many products without giving enough time for each product to dry before applying the next.

Best practices to avoid pilling:

1. Ensure your serums and moisturisers go well together without pilling, and you give them enough dry down time.
2. Definitely do not apply your sunscreen while the face is still damp from your moisturiser. Apply sunscreen only on a fully dry face.
3. Apply sunscreen in thin layers, and don't let any area of the face be clumpy with too much product.
4. Apply your makeup products also, only once sunscreen has dried down on your face fully.

If you have sensitive eyes, we recommend not applying unkissed beyond the orbital bone on your face. The orbital bone is the hollow area under your eyes, and the upper part of your cheekbones.

We also strongly suggest that after you have applied unkissed to wash your hands with soap and water. Oftentimes it’s the leftover sunscreen on our fingers that leads to eye irritation when eyes are casually rubbed during the day.

Another tip is to dab some loose setting powder under your eyes after you have applied sunscreen, to ensure that the sunscreen does not move around in that area of the face.

We recommend reapplying your sunscreen throughout the day depending on the degree of your outdoor exposure.

If reapplying over makeup, please work in small quantities and gently pat on the sunscreen instead of swiping it on the face.You can even use a beauty blender to seamlessly dab the sunscreen on your face.

The sunscreen filters in unkissed are in capsules so when you massage it on the face these capsules burst and a tiny amount of heat is released. Sunscreen filters work by absorbing light energy and releasing heat. You may feel this immediately upon application, but it goes away in a few minutes. Just know that THIS IS NORMAL, no need to panic. Some days we don’t even feel it, and some days if your skin is extra sensitive you might feel it. Some people may never feel it too. Just pat your skin wherever you feel it, and that should do.

The expiry date of the sunscreen is 24 months from the date of manufacturing but it should be used within 8 months of opening / you receiving the product.

unkissed gets its unique blueish colour from a combination of extracts used in the formula, but predominantly the Solanum Melongena (Eggplant) Fruit Extract is what gives the formula this blue hue.

There are no artificial or synthetic colouring agents used, and hence the colour may slightly differ from batch to batch of production, and the colour may also change with usage because natural extracts are prone to colour changes with time. But this does not affect the efficacy of the sunscreen and it is good to be used till 8 months after the bottle is first opened.
