Thrive Natural Care Reef Safe Sunscreen SPF50 - Hawaii 104 Reef Act Compliant - Mineral Sunscreen Non-Nano Zinc Oxide - Vegan, (5.8 Oz (Pack of 2))

1st time using this brand. I am very pleased with it. Needed a reef safe sunscreen for vacation in Central America - 90+ degrees. Good coverage. I did not burn but got a slight tan. Does not leave a white tint on skin. Easy to smooth into skin. Smells slightly citrusy and my husband and I like the smell, and leaves my skin feeling very soft, but not greasy. It did not wear off easily at the beach or pool. This size lasted a week for 2 people applying liberally at least once daily with a little left over (maybe 2 more applications.) I will purchase this again.

I wasn't sure about this product, I was expecting that heavy white cast after applying it but it was fantastic. I would say my new favorite sunscreen. I have a husband who HATES sunscreen but after 3 melanoma removals sunscreen is a must. This product goes on smoothly and does not leave a white cast which was amazing!! We wore it while river tubing so we were all in the direct sun for at least a few hours and it definitely exceeding our expectations. I will definitely be buying this sunscreen again. I wish they also made it in a stick form so reapplying was easy for on the go.

I love this sunscreen! It rubs in nicely, has a pleasant herbal scent, and makes my skin feel nourished and moisturized. It’s also awesome that it’s reef safe and supports regenerative farming- the best!!

Yes. I love this product . It is easy to apply, I know about skin care because I am a Salon owner and it is not easy to find sunblock . I Like to try your other products if you have.

I was looking for a good mineral sunscreen - somewhere between cheap and luxury. Based on Wirecutter's recommendations, I picked this up. While I gave four stars, it means it's great but not the absolute best sunscreen on earth. I used it once yesterday, and while it is initially thick and white, I did not look like I was covered in white paste after applying. It went one easy enough, and I did not look like a tourist covered in white paste. I would buy again. I do not like it as much as other brands 2x as much; though, it's a happy medium price wise.

I have been on the lookout for a less toxic and healthier sunscreen option with more natural ingredients, and I am so glad I found this. This sunscreen is fantastic—it feels very light on the skin and is not greasy at all, which is often a struggle with mineral-based formulas. It provides great protection without the harsh chemicals, making it a perfect addition to my daily routine. I highly recommend it if you're looking for something reef-safe and gentle!

I am a mineral sunscreen snob and this one exceeded expectations- so much less chalky and white than any of these others and smells lovely too! Don’t think twice about it, just get this one.

I scuba dive, so I got this because I want to be safe about what I have on my skin when I'm near the coral reefs. I didn't get sunburned but I went diving on an overcast day, so I can't really say much about its longevity and protection levels. I will say though that this feels like a very traditional old-fashioned sunscreen in the worst way (greasy, thick, leaves a white cast). I would never wear this sunscreen if I wasn't at the beach. If I was just going to be in a pool or going about my day in the city, I will stick to my Asian hybrid mineral/chemical sunscreen which is way more cosmetically elegant and has a higher protection factor.

I really wanted to love this product but it dried out my skin. A few days after I began using it I noticed my the skin on my arms was tight and itchy. I thought perhaps it was a change of weather that might have caused the sudden dryness but it continued. I stopped using the sunscreen and my skin has returned to normal. It's a pity because this is a pricey sunscreen with good ingredients. I'll finish using it along with extra body oil or moisturiser but won't buy it again.
