Honest answers

Will the sunscreen leave a white cast?
It's designed to minimise white cast on medium-to-deeper tones — the 30% lightweight-emollient base spreads the zinc thin and even. Give it a minute to warm into skin. If you have a very deep tone, patch-test on your jawline first; we'd rather you check than guess.
Why zinc-only? Aren't chemical filters more elegant?
Some are, texturally. But coated zinc oxide is broad-spectrum on its own, among the best-understood filters in the world, and well tolerated by sensitive skin. One filter also keeps the formula short and fully explainable — which is the whole brand.
I felt a warm flush after the moisturiser. Should I worry?
A small minority of people feel a brief warmth or flush from 4% niacinamide the first few uses. It's harmless and usually settles within minutes, and stops recurring as skin adjusts. If irritation persists or you see a rash, stop using it and talk to a dermatologist.
Is phenoxyethanol safe?
Yes — it's approved globally up to 1% and has one of the strongest safety records among preservatives. We use 0.8–0.85%. Any water-based product needs a preservative; "preservative-free" water-based skincare is a claim to be suspicious of, not reassured by.
Are the percentages really accurate?
Yes. The percentages we publish are the batch formula we manufacture to, and they sum to 100%. They match the on-pack label exactly. If you ever find a discrepancy, write to us — help@stayuncluttered.com — and we'll answer with the formula sheet.
Why do sizes mix mL and g?
The sunscreen is a fluid emulsion, so it's declared by volume (mL). The moisturisers are creams/gels, declared by net weight (g). That's the measurement-law-correct way to label each format, not an inconsistency.
