I wanted a sunscreen that was a healthier alternative to all of the synthetic chemical sunscreens. Well this isn't it. Not only do you get Zinc oxide, you get every other chemical sunscreen under the sun--in huge quantities. This is mentioned nowhere in the advertising literature. For example: Benzophenone-3 5%, Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate 7.5%. This is not just Zinc Oxide. I'd request a refund, but it's not worth my time and energy.

I bought this for my daughter who refused to use the more greasy, heavier Blue Lizard (which works very well). Goes on clear, non-greasy and protects well. All day in the sun here in Southern California got me nothing but brown. We are set for summer.

A lot of sunblocks claim that they won't burn your eyes, but this is the first one I've ever used that fulfilled the claim... Regarding the safety of this sunscreen: refer to the Cosmetics Databse website: [...]

I returned this product after finding out that it contained sun block agents that some recognize as carcinogenic. Zinc oxide is fine, but there is more than that agent in this product.
