I purchased this sunscreen because I try to avoid toxic sunscreen.My son's skin gets bleeding sores from most sunscreens available at the stores.I am always seeking sunscreens that are safe for his skin, yet don't break the bank and don't feel greasy.This sunscreen does not feel greasy when applied, it does not cause my son's skin to break out.It has a strange mentholation sensation (for lack of a better term) that you feel when you apply it. I would imagine that if you had an existing sunburn it would not feel very good.My 4 year old son actually complains about this when I apply it to his skin.He says that it feels weird on his skin.The scent is pleasant.It smells 'natural' instead of like chemicals.
My biggest complaint about this is actually how fast it dries!Normally when applying sunscreen I put a big dollop in my hand and apply to a large area at once.If I try to do that with this sunscreen it dries up and leaves big white splotches all over that can't be rubbed in.
Once I figured out how to apply it and not get big patches of dried sunscreen, I liked it well enough.It works as to be expected for a sunscreen.I wore it for a week in the hot Florida sun at Disney World and never even turned pink! (I have natural red hair and the pasty white skin & freckles that go with it) I ended up using my Blue Lizard sunscreen on the kids because they just did not like how this felt on their skin.They took greasy over this!I however, preferred this.
