Best ever sunscreen!
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!

Hawaii for a month and no sunburns!
All I will say about this sunscreen is I brought my pale-ass family of 4 (2 adults, 1 toddler, 1 baby) to Hawaii for a month. We used this sunscreen every day and got zero sunburns!Okay, I’ll say more. I love that I felt comfortable enough with the ingredients to use it on my children. It’s a mineral sunscreen so it does take effort to rub in, but it was worth it for us. We would just apply it to the kids sans-clothes and then dress them once it had soaked in. It’s definitely water resistant because we did a lot of swimming (making sure to reapply it after swimming was done).

Works well!
We LOVE this sunscreen! It works so well and we love that it isn’t toxic. It’s a little thick, but it’s great because you don’t have to apply it as often. Even at the beach! Which is a win for us and our 7 year old who gets tired of us coating her down. I wish they had more options of SPF levels. It is pricey for a small bottle, but worth it to know I’m not putting toxic cream on my family!

Peace of mind with this safe sunscreen
I found this sunscreen because I was concerned about the harmful ingredients found in many other popular sunscreens. I looked up ratings on EWG and found the handful of top rated suncreens and this lotion was the highest rating you could get for a relatively affordable price in a lotion formula.PROS: Goes on well, not too greasy or thick. I thought the smell was just fine - I had seen some reviews saying the smell was horrible but I didn't experience that at all. It worked great on the kids and adults and seemed to be effective in the pool for a few hours in the sun and water.CONS: It's a smaller bottle at a higher price point - but I think that's what you end up paying for something that's higher quality and safe. I think we'll go through this bottle pretty quick, it's a bit small, especially for a family with kids. I did notice a slight white cast once in the water, but it wasn't excessive and it seemed to absorb in better with time.I will continue to keep buying this sunscreen and also will be looking for a safe sunscreen stick. I could see myself using this lotion for faces and finding a stick for the rest of the body, but until then I'll use this one all over.

Product does all it claims.
Less white film than other mineral sunscreens. Does good job at protecting skin. Mild, no sting and great moisturizer. Would buy again.

Great sunscreen
My wife is a red head and most sunscreen doesn’t work that good not to mention all the bad chemicals in it. This product doesn’t have all of those bad chemicals and it works great for her.

All natural and still better than the super-chemical sunscreens.
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.

DOES NOT WORK!!!
This doesn’t work!!! I bought this because it is eco friendly but after several applications our entire family got extremely burned, to the point of blistering. It was like putting on regular lotion, no sun protection at all! I do not recommend.
