Tips: Good for skin that is too sensitive for normal to heavy sunscreens.
At one point this sunscreen was available in a pack with a large bottle and small bottle for $20, so working outdoors I naturally stocked up.
Obviously it smells like sunscreen, there's no trying to hide *that* smell. It's easy to apply (not too thick or too runny), and soaks into the skin readily.
I haven't noticed any moisturising effect but don't get burned when using it so basically it does what it should. I continue to buy it. There really isn't a lot to say!
I think this is a pretty nice sunscreen. I don't find it to be very moisturising but it isn't drying at all. It is good value for money and great for families and applying all over the body when you're out in the sun.
Do not typically use on my face but is decent other than that
I prefer this sunscreen over most as it isn't as thick. Even application is easier to achieve. Great for days out in the sun. only downside is that the biggest bottle is 200ml, so won't last very long if used for multiple people.
I like that the scent isn't too overwhelming as some sunscreens can be. It's a relatively thinner consistency so spreads easily and doesn't leave a heavy, greasy feeling. It also doesn't dry out my skin. It's effective but I wouldn't use it on my face. Would be too heavy.
Store upside down!
Worked great for me. No sun burn on me or my little ones, silky smooth and easy to apply. Smells fantastic also. I did find if you don’t wait after applying to go in the water it isn’t as effective but that fault is my own error.
Tips: Wait 10+ minutes after applying before swimming
this lotion was a little bit greasy when you applied it but disappeared in mins, very effective in stop your skin getiing tanned or burned,i used it on whole families.
I LOVE the smell of this sunscreen. It is easy to apply and spreads far. It has always protected my body from getting burnt. This is one of my favourite body sunscreens. However, I do not use it on my face as I have sensitive skin and it started to cause a rash.
It is good suncreen. I use it every summer, can't remember how many bottles I have used over the years. it does an amazing job protecting skin from the sun. Absorbs quickly into my skin, the formula is not runny. Super affordable! It is very moisturising so it is great for winter as well. For some people, it might be a bit greasy.
I know about the importance of sunscreen and I try really hard to be diligent but often the greasy feel really puts me off so I am on a constant hunt for sunscreen that does not leave that feeling!
I can't say 100% that this sunscreen succeeded in that task BUT it did do a lot better than other brands! It felt greasy to start but did absorb pretty well (although not totally).
I like that is has SPF 50+ and it is a reasonable price, the bottle is ok... not bad, nothing special. I don't feel 100% confident it wouldn't come open in my bag.
I find it quite easy to apply and that includes on to the kids, although if it is really hot and you are getting a bit of a sweat on it slides off pretty easily, also if the kids are swimming I don't think it lasts well.
So! I have not found my holy grail yet but I do keep a bottle of this in the car glove box and it does the job well!
