Mineral Sunscreen SPF 25 - USA Made Zinc Oxide Baby & Kids Sunscreen, Reef Friendly Sun Screen With Natural & Organic Ingredients, Lightweight & Fast Absorbing Lotion for All Skin Types

I adore this product. It smells so good (like light vanilla and coconut) and applies nicely - it feels almost like a thicker moisturizer and a little goes a long way. At first, I thought it had more of a white cast than it did but I hadn't rubbed it in all the way. If you do end up dealing with a white cast, try mixing this product with your regular face cream and you shouldn't have any more problems.As a licenced Esthetician I have a hard time finding sunscreens that actually work without being filled with loads of ingredients that aren't good for me in the long run. I found this product and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Not only are the ingredients fantastic but it also doesn't contain nanoparticles.Nanoparticles are often found in sunscreens due to their anti-UV properties. Because of their size, they can penetrate the skin and spread throughout the body. ANSES (the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety) has placed them on its list of substances prioritized for evaluation because of their carcinogenic and endocrine disruption potential. This risk is significantly higher in spray sunscreens as these particles directly penetrate into the respiratory system.This is why I prioritize cream SPFs like this one! Also, it is reef safe so I can swim in confidence knowing I have a minimal impact on the marine environment around me.

This sunscreen arrived very quickly and was very well packaged. I do think that there are 5 oz in a 4 oz bottle like the product description says because the bottle definitely felt very full. In a good way. I looked over the list of ingredients and was super pleased to see that all of the ingredients listed are organic! Yay. What a bonus on top of already being reef and marine friendly, non-toxic and biodegradable. By the way, I compared the ingredients against a bottle of Blue Lizard sunscreen that I had been using, and not one of their ingredients are organic, and they are way more expensive then this Beauty by Earth sunscreen. Okay, back to this product; some of the ingredients listed are: Organic Aloe Vera juice, organic safflower seed oil, coconut oil, organic shea butter, organic argon oil, vitamin E, organic green tea extract, etc. The list goes on.The consistency is thick so a little goes a long way after its all rubbed in. That's fine with me, since that means my bottle will last a lot longer. It's also not greasy at all, despite having all of those moisturizing oils in it. I have very sensitive skin and I can't slather just anything on my face without breaking out. I've been using this daily for over a week now without a single blemish. More, my face feels soft and hydrated. Which isn't surprising considering the list of moisturizing ingredients. Another pleasant surprise was the scent. It is a very subtle, delicate scent that is really, really wonderful. No, it's not perfumey. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this the best smelling, sunscreen that I've ever used. And I've used a lot of sunscreen since I haven't gone outside without it in the last 20 years. Even my Khiels sunscreen just smells like boring sunscreen. And isn't' even organic like this one is. Other aspects that I like are that there are no Parabens, nano-particles, Retinyl Palmitate, Chemical fragrance, Paba, Oxybenzone, Toxic chemicals or Phalates. This makes me feel comfortable using it daily on my face and applying it to my children as well.So, all in all, this is literally, the best sunscreen that I have ever used. The fact that it is actually affordable just makes it even better. I will re buy this product, probably forever. I'm so impressed, I'm going to now look into Beauty by Earth's other products.

I really, really wanted to like this sunscreen. I know it can be difficult to make a product not loaded with bad chemicals and I appreciate every company who puts effort into creating a product that does not include them. I've played around with this product for over a month. I'm giving it a 3/5 stars because it does work, and I will use it on the rest of my body, but not for the face. I've had much more luck with powdered zinc mixed with jojoba oil and aloe vera. When applied to the face, this product sticks to EVERY single piece of dry skin. I've tried it fresh after exfoliation, and mixed it with many different products. I've tried mixing it with day lotion, night cream, jojoba oil, aloe vera and even foundation. Even when the product blended alright, it effected the consistency of the other products and highlighted every pore, line and dry area of my face. It does the same for the rest of my body also, but that doesn't really matter all that much to me.However, it does prevent burning, so it is doing its job. I will use the rest of the bottle on my neck, arms and chest, but will probably not repurchase unless I stumble on a way of using it on my face without it doing what it's currently doing.I'm just disappointed because I did my research, and this is a very well loved product. My skin is tending toward dry these days, so maybe this would work really well for someone with oily skin who would appreciate a mattifying effect. The search goes on...[Edit] 9/20/15 I've been playing with this still to try to make it work and I stumbled upon something super helpful. So something else I've been trying to replace is deodorant from the drugstore.Zinc helps kill bacteria and I have a huge jar full of the powdered kind. I've been using this as sunscreen mixed with jojoba oil and aloe vera, and it works well and blends in well. When I tried using the powder plain for my armpits, it sort of works but can get messy. Besides the white dust everywhere (which would look really suspicious to the random passerby) it would also crease in my armpits. This makes it effective for half of the day, but by the end of the workday, you know you gotta go home and freshen up. I've been using it like that anyway, and was going to try different DIY recipes online until I found something that worked.Well I was thinking how this formula is pretty thick and sticky and doesn't travel very much when trying to rub it on my face, and decided to try it out as a deodorant alternative. IT WORKS! YAY! It doesn't seem to travel much or crease, it doesn't stick to my clothes (that I'm aware of and I do wear black often) and best of all, it works.I actually love the faint scent that this leaves behind it's one of my favorite things about the product. I would recommend warming it up by rubbing it between your hands before applying it and then rubbing it in a little so it won't transfer on to any clothes. So I bump it up to 4 starts. If anyone tries it out in the same way, let me know how it works for you!
