I was expecting something thicker like a lotion, but this is a thinner consistency. This is an advantage as it is easy to apply and absorbs well. I did not find it greasy, though it does contain a number of oils.

I am very fair and it leaves my skin looking a bit more pale, but I've found that adding just a tiny bit of my makeup foundation balances out the color. Frankly, I think it makes me look younger, as another reviewer pointed out.

(Edited on Dec 3. 2010: A little bit goes a long, long way! Start with a little bit, no bigger than a dime. Rub your hands together then rub onto your skin. If you need more, you can add it. I no longer add any makeup to balance the color. I use only the smallest amount and find that my skin looks great with no make-up - and not white! I find that the protection has not decreased.)

I suffer from acne and rosacea, am on a topical medicine that makes me more sensitive to the sun and my skin is naturally sensitive. Unlike other products, this doesn't burn or sting and I am confident that my skin is protected. I've not had any breakouts or other problems.

The smell is yummy, a food/cookie type smell. It has a 'Born On' date only 10 days before I placed my order. I really liked that it was fresh and hadn't been sitting in a warehouse for months.

Excellent protection from the sun and unnecessary chemicals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Sunscreen Ever!, August 7, 2009

I love this sunscreen. It is not greasy, or smelly, or full of crap that no one needs all over the largest organ of their bodies (their skin). I love it especially for my 11 month old daughter. It works wonderfully and I can feel secure knowing that her skin is not absorbiing a bunch of chemicals.

I put Water Babies on her once and she broke out into a head to toe rash. I felt terrible. With this sunscreen that has never happend!

This review is from: Loving Naturals SPF 30 Sunscreen Zinc Oxide 5 Oz. UVA/UVB Vegan (Misc.)

I just got this sunscreen a week ago. I have two small boys, ages 3 and 7 months. The sunscreen itself smells nice (sort of like sunflower seeds) and goes on smoothly. You really have to work to get it rubbed it, and even then it leaves a whitish tint. I'm OK with that, and my boys aren't really old enough to care. My one big complaint is that it doesn't last very long. We went to the pool today for 2 hours. I applied sunscreen to the boys before we went outside and again about an hour into our visit. Both boys got quite a lot of sun and are on the edge of red. I only applied the sunscreen before going out and I'm pretty pink.

It's not billed as a waterproof product, only water resistant, but I have had similar results even when we weren't in the water.

Bottom line: it's good as far as it goes, but make sure to reapply, reapply, reapply.
