All the SPF formulas are made without Octinoxate and Oxybenzone, two ingredients known to irritate skin and cause harm to ocean life, and banned by Hawai, the US Virgin Islands and St John.

MD Solar Sciences was founded by Robert J. Friedman, M.D., and is owned by a group of private investors.

Using SPF is the #1 recommendation of dermatologists to prevent the signs of aging as SPF prevents damage caused by UV radiation. The MD Revitalize Retinol Serum is formulated for additional anti-aging effects through gentle exfoliation. The MD Restore Eye Gel is also an excellent way to maintain hydration in the delicate eye area and address fine lines, wrinkles, and dark circles.

MDSolarSciencse is the only line of dermatologist developed and recommended sunscreen for children . \We recommend the Kidstick SPF and Kidspray SPF, as well as the Kid Creme SPF, all safe to use for children 6 months and up.

SPF products are generally ok to use while pregnant or breastfeeding, though we recommend that you speak with your doctor before adding any active ingredients to your skincare routine.

As a general rule of thumb, we recommend reapplying SPF products every two hours, or right after swimming, towel drying or sweating.

MD Solar Sciences Mineral Creme SPF 50 is water resistant for 80 minutes (the longest lasting protection available in the market).

SPF products are required by the FDA to have an expiration date of no less than 3 years from when the packaging is opened. Check your packaging for the expiration date of your product.
