do you need to be careful with the sun while using this?

I am no expert, but any face cream containing exfoliating ingredients requires care when spending time in the sun. Bottom line is that it is a good idea to use an appropriate spf sunscreen when spending time in the sun with facial exposure anyway.

Yes! SPF 30 or higher has to be used daily while using this product! U should be doing that anyway daily! I am a Master Aesthetician & I do not go out w/o sunblock! The sun is 90% of aging!

no, I only use it at night. It is not good to use a retinol product if you are going to be in the sun.

Perfectly safe. The amount of UVA/UVB is vanishingly small more than 2 feet away from the bulb, and even at very close range is much less than from the afternoon sun. I think getting a slight burn from touching it after it has been on for a while is a more serious hazard, though its heat output is only in the 40W incandescent range. One should remember, though, that these are flourescent bulbs, and all the warnings about breaking this kind of bulb apply.

Yes, it actually says not to put it in direct sunlight. I grow mine in a shaded corner of my counter.

No. 1st it's under powered. Any breeze can blow it away, unless there's no wind at all. 2nd it uses IR remote, which can be affected by sun shine easily.

No, It needs direct sunlight. Unless, you have a large window that gets 7-8 hrs of direct sun. You can always try it.

In my opinion, yes. The bed and sun do the same thing. But this wont protect you from the suns rays and burns.

Yes, some people even leave it in the sun after they clean it. It's rubber or sorts but thick so the warmth helps to "break it in" and keep it strong.

I wouldn't suggest that because your suppose to avoid the sun and considering my reaction using that product I don't have much faith on the product.

No, it actually needs to be kept out of direct sunlight. I brew mine in a closet and have been successful every time.

The manufacturer's literature states to keep it out of direct sunlight. I always kept it away from any kind of bright light.

Hello, This product does not provide good protection from the sun so you will want use a sunscreen as well if you are going to be in the sun.

yes, very versitile in blocking at angles, you will have to turn it and move it etc as teh sun shifts, but we used it for four days in full sun and I never got burned once. We also hung our towels, it dried them and protected us.

I would keep it on the outside for safety's sake, the loss in UVB is going to be negligible.

Yes you can. It works real good on bright sunny days. I hardly ever use the illumination.
