Product Description

VanicreamTM Sunscreen Sport SPF 35 is a broad spectrum sunscreen that protects your skin throughout the UVA spectrum and provides more protection than your natural sunburn protection (UVB). While all sunscreens protect your skin from the sun's burning UVB rays, VanicreamTM Sunscreen Sport SPF 35 contains zinc oxide, an ingredient that offers additional protection from the UVA rays which may contribute to skin damage and premature aging of the skin. This sunscreen also contains Vitamin E, a natural antioxidant which helps prevent damage to the skin by neutralizing free radicals produced when skin is exposed to the sun.

4.0 out of 5 stars best all around value, July 2, 2009

This is the second year I've used this sunscreen, since it was rated in the top ten in EWG testing last year. I see it's down to #20 this year, (out of 469 tested!) but the competition has really heated up for nontoxic, effective sunscreens. I burn easily, and have never gotten a burn while using it, and on occasion that has meant going out in direct summer sun all day long.
I'm giving it 4 stars rather than 5 because it does take a bit of effort to apply. I find it's important to squeeze out just enough to coat. If I get it on too thickly, it can be tricky to spread or remove some so there's not a thick, white coating. That being said, it's not really not that difficult.
Considering that the price is about half of the comparable, highly rated sunscreens, it's a great value, and it's the only sunscreen I use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works well when sweating, October 16, 2009

I've bought several bottles of this now and have found it's one of the few sunscreens that continues to work while I sweat. I'm outside for 12hrs at a time and sweat a ton. I apply about 3 times during a 12hr day, and rarely get a burn. My only complaint is that it goes on very thick and bottles get used up pretty quickly.

We adopted a little boy from China, whom we found out on the first day of swimming, is highly allergic to sunscreens of any kind. The allergist recommended this and gave us samples as well. While it is a little thicker than norm, the Vanicream Sport 35 worked well, whether on a FL vacation or for daily pool use. Our other son, who usually gets rashes after a few days of sun and sunscreen on the beach, used it as well. No more rashes!
