I found that the sticky white cream never really soaked into my skin and if i rubbed into to much it was not only sticky but oily. Not good for the beach with Sand! I didn't get burned so i guess thats a really good thing.

Tips: Don't put on Face!
This stuff feels like a heavy oil.
When I applied it to my shoulders, it caused my hair (shoulder length) to go super greasy. The tips of my hair actually stuck together.
It says non-greasy. I say greasy.
No doubt it is thick and probably gives great coverage. I didn't burn with it on. But, during summer, when it's already hot and sticky, the last thing I want is to feel like I've been swimming in margarine.
Spray bottle is a nice size and shape, and the product does smell nice.
In my opinion, there are far better sunscreens than this one, that are actually 'non-greasy' and at the same price point.
Tips: Buy something else
I trusted in the brand & so I would use this brand for summer 2016/2017. I've not realize spf 30 is just not enough coverage for the harsh Auckland summers(which I love) It took me some time to realise that this wasn't working I thought I was not reapplying or applying correctly. As I was continously getting burnt. My kids would lather it on & would still be getting bright red to orange by the days end. What I find is its very tacky doesn't absorb and leaves an oil slick look. Now I don't mind not absorbing & leaving the white /tinged sunscreen look but my teens didn't like it all just not cool. After getting thru half way of the bottle & seeing the condition of myself & my kids skin I realized this isn't the product for our family. Then to top it of an article in the news asking people if they have experienced troubles with this perticular brand & product. Which helped me with my conclusion that this isn't a product for me.
My husband was using this for surfing but found that it wasn't giving the best protection as he was still getting burnt and as its quite thick it was tricky to apply after being in the water!
I had to use it once when I forgot my usual spray on sunscreen and totally agree with the application thing, not pleasant to apply when wet and covered in sand!!
