Sun Bum Mineral SPF 30 Sunscreen Body Lotion - Broad Spectrum Moisturizing Facial Sunscreen with Vitamin E - Vegan and Hawaii 104 Act Compliant (Without Octinoxate & Oxybenzone) - Travel Friendly 3 oz

This mineral sunscreen does a great job at blocking the sun. It applies smoothly, although it does have a slightly pasty texture which is typical of mineral sunscreens. I love that it was on the thinner side for consistency which makes it easy to apply evenly. We used it extensively last summer and it kept us well protected. We'll definitely be using it again this summer!

This product worked great for us in the Philippines for a week of sea kayaking off the coast of Palawan and 4 days at a beach resort. Lots of sun exposure time and no burns. We reapplied at least three times a day but was wearing hats and long sleeve rash guard when possible as nothing workes better than SPF clothing. We took 4 bottles but only used 2.5 bottles for two people over a week and a half for two people of our more sun-intensive days. If wanting to go without a rash guard I would suggest a bottle would last 3 full days of sun for one person when doing multiple recoats of chest, legs, and face. I had no issue with stinging in eyes when applying it to my forehead in the sun after letting it dry for 20 minutes. This product will make a very slight white cast to your skin when you have it on in the correct amounts, didn't bother us. It will also leave lighter spots on clothing you get it on but will get lighter throughout the day and washes out 100%. I would definitely use this again over standard sunscreens for the corals and because it didn't sting my eyes.

I use this just once on my face in the morning, apply makeup over it, and I haven’t burned yet! Been using it for two years now. Unfortunate thing is that my face is not tan at all because it doesn’t allow any rays. LOL So I my makeup has to match the rest of my body… I stay under an umbrella at the beach for about half of the time that I’m there. Otherwise I am out in the sun. And I do not reapply this. I am in the sun between the hours of 9 and 1 PM and I’m in and out of the shade and sun half of the time. Still no burning. Actually I don’t think I reapplied it at all once I got home from the beach and I was out at the pool regularly for another hour with no shade. So it seems to be pretty darn good! Some people say they don’t like the smell, but I specifically bought it because I love love love the coconut smell. My daughter says it smells like bananas but I don’t like the smell of bananas and I don’t think it smells like that.It does definitely leave a white sheen. Hence my need for make up.

This product is pretty good. It blocks from the sun really well but it is a little too thick. Most mineral sunscreens a pretty thick so thats not a problem but some thing in this formula also gives me a headache just about every time a wear it. Good product but not for me.

Smooths on nicely and absorbs quickly. Reside on the south east coast where it's really humid. Stays on all day.

Applies easily, smells great and hardly leaves a whitecast! One of my favorite mineral sunscreens that I’ve tried.

We normally purchase Elta MD mineral sunscreen. It is a little pricey so I bought this to supplement, use while doing yard work, etc. to save money.Pros-a nice moisturizer sunscreen.Spreads easilyDoes what it is supposed to doGood priceMy skin tolerates it wellCons:Made my eyes sting. I can’t use it directly under eye or on upper lid like I can with someHighly fragranced-I would prefer either fragrance free or a light coconut scent. This has a strong banana scentI would purchase again.Regarding white cast: this is a mineral sunscreen sans tint. It will leave a white cast. Non-tinted mineral sunscreen should never receive a bad review because of white cast. Leave those reviews for comparing tinted mineral sunscreens.

My skin is very sensitive to the sun. My skin does not tan I sun burn quickly! I love this sunblock because according to the ingredients it's reef & sea animal friendly. I found this product didn't leave a very noticeable white cast on my skin. I was able to blend it with very little noticeable white cast. I didn't find it sticky or really rubbing off on my clothes or bathing suite. In respect to all the things I mention it was all at a very minimal notice. For me it didn't have a smell of any kind. I used this product on vacation in Mexico. I tried & stayed out of the sun as much as I could. I went on a Mayan ruin tour following a snorkeling excursion & did not get a sunburn! Usually for that long period of time in the sun I would have received a light sunburn using other sunblocks but instead I actually got a light tan! I did apply this product on my body & face. I have to say this is my 1st time using this brand & it worked super well for me. :) *Just FYI when I applied this product I didn't need to apply to much if you do its going to obviously leave a white cast. I only applied as needed through out the day. Also make sure you give it time to sit to soak into your skin before putting on your clothes. After all you do have to wait a few min after applying before going out in the sun. That's any sunblock directions.
