Thank you for getting in touch about our Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 one Moisturizer with SPF 15. We'd like to apologize for any confusion. While our product does contain SPF for sun protection, it still is a moisturizer and you only need to apply as often as needed. We recommend using day and night for regular use and to apply more if necessary for optimal protection against the sun. We'd be happy to assist you further. Whenever you have the time, feel free to give us a call at (800) 285-5170 or email us through our Contact Us Page so we may do so.
