Very small bottle The product itself is good.

I got this sunscreen because I was going on a couple of snokeling excursions, so I wanted to be sure I had reef safe sunscreen. I made sure to read others' reviews of the product first to see how to properly apply it. I was happy I did, because the sunscreen does apply a bit differently than your traditional ones. It goes on thick and has to really be rubbed in. I'm white skinned, and I felt it rubbed in really well. It rubbed in pretty well on my medium-skinned husband as well. I really liked that it had the shimmers in it, because I could tell where I applied the cream. I found it to not be as heavy or greasy feeling as other sunscreens. It did a pretty good job as well, as I didn't get burned. I only tested it in the ocean, so I don't know if it is equally effective in fresh water or chlorinated pools, but I was really happy with this. It's a bit smaller and more expensive than traditionaI sunscreens, but a little goes a long way. I will definitely continue to use this, especially with water activities in the ocean.

When I booked a trip to St Croix, Virgin Islands, I quickly learned it was required to wear Reef Safe sunscreen when swimming around the coral reef. After a quick search, I happened upon this sunscreen and felt good about the ingredients that were going on my body and knowing I was protecting marine life. The product itself is not sticky or greasy and doesn't wash off in the water. It goes on white but after thoroughly rubbing it in, it's barely noticeable. After spending 3 hours in direct sun on a boat and swimming in the ocean, I was NOT sunburned. That says a lot for someone with very fair skin. Things to note, a little bit goes a long way and it's thick. I put little dots allover my body and then rub it all in connecting the dots. Now our entire family, including 3 kids, use this product without any skin reactions or sunburns. It's a mistake buy!!

expensive but good

There is no expiration date on the product? Color tint is good. Thick cream due to zinc.

Worked for us when out on a Florida trip in the gulf of America
