Thinkbaby SPF 50+ Baby Mineral Sunscreen – Safe, Natural Sunblock for Babies - Water Resistant Sun Cream – Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB Sun Protection – Vegan Baby Sunscreen Lotion, 6 Oz.

So far this sunscreen has served me well. Of course if you put any sunscreen on and sit in the sun for hours, you will still burn (unless you have miracle skin). I apply this liberally and go out for moderate amounts of time (often over an hour) to my garden in direct sun and it doesn't let me burn. I have tanned a bit but that is also to be expected since you can't get 100% coverage really from any normal sunscreen, you will still get a few UV rays here and there but at least with this I'm seemingly well-protected and haven't burned at all when I've been wearing it. It smells great and it does not leave me feeling greasy. It also doesn't seem to block pores on my face- no pimples so far! It also doesn't turn you completely white, just a very hint of white depending on the amount applied.My only *minor* complaint is that this can be difficult to take off, but that's the same problem I've had with ALL natural sunscreens- it takes a little extra effort. For this, I use a wash cloth and put cool water on it, then I rub down the areas I applied sunscreen to.. you can see the white sunscreen being removed if you use a colored wash cloth. This can seem like a hassle, but honestly it's the best way to get any natural sunscreen off you if you don't want to be covered all day (I kind of have a "thing" for not feeling thick sunscreen/lotion/etc. on my skin- it bothers me when I don't *need* to be wearing it, so I always take off sunscreen when I come inside so my skin can breathe!). It's really quick and easy to remove once you use a wash cloth. :)

i have been looking for a mineral-based spf for years. i have finally found it. i have tried so many brands (costing sooooo many dollars since they're basically thrown away when they fail) but this one has what i was looking for! just zinc oxide - and non-nano sized! and a healthy percentage of it at that (20%). other ingredients are fairly well known to me - no endless list of dodgy chemicals.it is VERY creamy! i feel like i'm getting a great moisturizer & sun protection in one. my skin is so soft after applying it & stays that way the vast majority of the day, if not all day. i am in my early 60s - which has shocked more than a few dermatologists when they initially meet me - which may account a tad for my skin loving the richness of this formulation. it does NOT need a lot of rubbing to get rid of the white cream (aren't ALL sunscreens white?) non-existent aroma.no parabens, phthalates, bpa, petroleum or toxic chemicals. and its 3 oz tube is tsa airport-approved sized. you don't use much at all - i can see this tube lasting almost a year. 2016 expiration date too - not "old" when you get it.i fell back into using neutrogena pure & free baby when i couldn't find a good natural sunscreen as it was zinc & titanium dioxide based with no oxybenzone and no parabens BUT recently i noticed that the first listed ingredient was alumina, a form of aluminum, which i don't want on my skin & particularly my face for ongoing well-known dementia concerns. and they market it for BABIES!i can't say enough about thinkbaby! it is my forever sunscreen now. FINALLY! love it, love it, love it... (btw - i am NOT associated in any way with this company & a rarely do reviews on amazon - even though my ups driver is here constantly due to them - but when a product is this good, i take the time)UPDATE: june 2020 & still feel the same way about it. rare these days for a product to not cut corners in size or quality. this continues to be THE BEST!

Easy to apply. Smell nice. Seems to do well as a sunscreen.

After researching a ton of baby sunscreens, I kept coming back to Thinkbaby SPF 50+ because of its clean ingredients and strong reputation — and it’s lived up to the hype.It goes on smoothly for a mineral sunscreen, leaves only a very light white cast, and feels gentle even on sensitive skin. I love that it’s made with non-nano zinc oxide and free of harsh chemicals, fragrances, and parabens. It’s also water-resistant, which is perfect for busy outdoor days.If you’re looking for a safe, effective sunscreen for your little one, this is a fantastic pick. I feel great knowing I’m putting something this clean and protective on my baby’s skin.
