Coppertone Sunscreen Lotion, Oil Free, SPF 15, 8-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 2)

This product was my go-to sunscreen for at least 8 years.Sadly, they changed the formula about two years ago, the same time they started labeling it as "broad spectrum" sunscreen.The new formula smells horribly like chemical sunscreen (the old formula had no smell).New formula feels thicker and heavier with a slight rubbery texture, and does not absorb as good (old formula was like cream, lightweight and smooth).The worst part is that when I shower after using it I literally peel off these little stringy things from my skin.I switched to Neutrogena Triple Protect SPF 20 to use on my face.It is more similar to the old Coppertone that they ruined with the new formula.

We use this oil free lotion all summer long at the beach. It works on a wide variety of skin types. I am olive skinned and my partner is kind of fair skinned, and we can both use this without fear of getting burned. I lay out in the sun all day long and he generally sits under the umbrella until about 3pm. We went to Aruba and had read that the sun is stronger there due to it's proximity to the equator and I was worried that we should use a higher SPF (because that's what I had read online). We used this all week with no problems at all and it left both of us with really nice tans. We use it everywhere including on our faces and in our hair without fear of breaking out. It is pretty amazing because we are not religious about reapplying, but we both can't believe how well it protects while letting a little sun.

I am not sure why others say this has a strong odor. If anything, I think it is pretty neutral/no odor. To me it smells like a face lotion (like maybe Clinique or Kiehl's) and not like sunscreen. But, I am someone who loves the smell of sunscreen my favorite Yankee Candle is Sun & Sand. :)

This sunscreen works well for preventing sunburn, and it is great being oil-free and I feel safe putting it on my face as well as body, however it has a very strong sunscreen smell, and my skin feels thick and sticky after applying it. After exercising or going to the beach, I always feel that it is absolutely necessary to take a shower to wash it all off immediately. I give it a 3 star because it works well since I've never gotten sunburnt and felt confident it was protecting my skin, however I'm looking for other sunscreens with a drier formula and much much less smell.

Both of my children are prone to eczema and it is often made worse by sunscreens, but they had no problem with this sunblock.It is light and not greasy.It goes on easily and most importantly it does not contain oxybenzone or vitamin A.

I WISH I could use this sunscreen because it absorbs fast and stays on through sweat and water. It has kind of a funny chemical smell though and more importantly, I had an allergic reaction (a rash) to it. If you're not allergic to it, by all means use it though!
