I absolutely love this sunscreen. I used to use organic Goddess Garden sunscreen, but I believe they discontinued it during the pandemic as I can’t find it anywhere. I researched organic sunscreens and this one was recommended by the Environmental Working Group (EWG). Its best attributes are that it goes on like lotion, it is not white or sticky, but most of all works! I have very, very, very fair skin and have traveled all over the world with this, and have not gotten burned, thank goodness! If I am going swimming, I make sure to reapply every two hours on the dot and it works like a charm! Read more
Protects against sunburn, and didn't irritate my skin. Read more
I really like this sunscreen! As a pale person, it does leave a bit of a white cast but I feel like it is worth it, and honestly seeing a little of the sunscreen on my skin at least makes me feel like it's working. My skin isn't sensitive, but sometimes sunscreen does affect my eyes. This one does not! With a baby on the way, I like that this brand has products good for mama and mini. A couple of cons. This sunscreen feels a little too expensive for me. I am reordering today, but when I can do more research on other affordable AND natural brands, I may change my routine up. This bottle did last me a little over 2 months. The only issue I have with the product is the oil seperating especially toward the end of its life, which was today. Instead of getting on last hurrah out of my bottle, I ended up getting an oily mess which lead to me having to redo my skincare routine over again. In short, this is a great product to try if you are starting to also get concerned with what cosmetic products you are putting on your skin. You will probably get a little white cast, but nothing crazy. The oil tends to seperate so make sure you mix the product often and well. Read more
This sunscreen is one of the independently highest rated sunscreens for UVA and UVB balance, along with safe ingredients. Any other sunscreen I have found that matches the performance of the Babo SPF 50 also comes with bad ingredients. The simple sunscreens with limited number of natural ingredients don't absorb into skin as well and can leave it feeling a little oily. Benefits of the Babo SPF 50: - Super easy to spread compared to other natural sunscreens, especially compared to the sticks and tins. - Dries very fast for a natural sunscreen. So glob it on thick and it will absorb in and dry. - Cheaper than many similar alternatives. - Approved by the EWG ORG as one of the highest rated sunscreens on the market for overall health and safety. - Doesn't leave anywhere close to the greasiness of many other natural sunscreens. Even leaves skin dry at times. - Less likely to smear on sunglasses once fully dry and rubbed in than many other sunscreens. TIPS! - Don't leave the bottle in hot place. Might degrade or separate contents. - It is extremely easy to put on too thin because of how well it spreads once warmed up on skin. Make sure to put on more than your think needs to be there. It will dry fast. IF anything, put on multiple coatings. Read more
Hands down the best natural sunscreen we’ve ever used! We are from northern Indiana so not much skin exposed to the sun during winter time. We were all very white, my husband, our 4 year old and myself. We went to Florida for vacation and were on the beach a lot and in the full sun. This stuff performed AMAZINGLY! We only had to apply once and it literally lasted ALL day, even though we were in the water, sand, etc. Very waterproof and AMAZING sun protection. We didn’t get burnt at ALL. It isn’t too thick like some zinc sunscreens either. Spreads very easily on the skin. You can rub it in completely too so there’s no white cast showing and it works perfectly. You don’t have to look white for it to work. It made my skin look so glowing and moisturized. It is a tiny bottle though and mine arrived with a big slice in the bottle and sunscreen everywhere. I didn’t have time to order another one before we left on our trip so I just taped it shut over the cut and it worked fine. But maybe a little better packaging would help! 100% ordering again and so glad to finally have found a good, safe and affective sunscreen for the whole family!! Read more
Have a hard time finding one that is dewy and not greasy looking and mineral with high zinc -this is IT! Goes on a bit white and I have olive skin but goes away quickly then lives a nice finish. Some make my skin look old and dry and wrinkled in outside light, this one does not. This one is great for mature skin. Found one i will definitely repurchase. Read more
This sunscreen is fantastic. It flawlessly protects my extremely sensitive and super fair skin. It does smell like old, wet wheat while applying it, but that smell quickly goes away. Read more
I didn’t realize how tiny the bottle is for the price. And what’s with having to shake it before every use? I’ve used many “clean” sunscreen brands and none of them have issues with the ingredients separating (this one separates, so shaking is a must). I won’t purchase again. Read more
