Brilliant sunscreen!, 20 Jun. 2014

In my opinion this is one of the best and safest sunscreens on the market right now. Totally chemical free and the best non nano zinc protection. I have tried many other 20% natural zinc sunscreens and none have been as good as this one. It looks really thick when it comes out of the tube, but when I applied it to my fair sensitive and delicate skin, it went on easily and smoothly and is not greasy. It goes on a bit white in the beginning but after 10 minutes it is clear. Other sunscreens have been so white they have been unwearable, but this one was totally fine. I recommend applying it, waiting 10 minutes or so, then applying your make up etc.

As for the smell, it is true that it smells a little 'whole foody ' in the beginning, like a herb or something but after the 10 minutes, the smell disappeared and was neutral. No problems with that!

I'm going to use this daily for myself and on my kids. Just hope amazon keeps on stocking this product, as most of the british...

No burn guarantee, 13 April 2014

With 23% zinc oxide, this product is a hardcoresuncreen. I bought it off the recommendation of Dr Laura Bailey's blog (drbaileyskincare.com). I wouldn't wear this everyday, but for days where I'll be getting a lot of sun and am not planning on wearing makeup or other products, this does the job - protects from the sun so I don't burn and that's really all I'm looking for.What's not so great is the smell - kind of plant oily/fishy, but not too bad and of course it's thick and sticky and leaves a white cast, but I don't mind it on the days where all I want is protection, not an aesthetically pleasing look. Other great stuff about it (it's all written on the tube) - eco safe, natural, no chemicals, fragrances and of course it's Leaping Bunny Certified which I love. Great product for days spent in the sun. Great seller experience too, no problems.

Almost unusable, 25 July 2014

From all the natural spf's I had researched I chose this because of its all natural high SPF (spf30) and it's "water resistant" claim. I was really looking forward to using it however this sun protection is so thick and difficult to put on and it does not absorb at all leaving a white layer on top of my skin. Unfortunately It was expensive to buy and a waste of money really :/
