Banana Boat Light As Air Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 Twin Pack | Lightweight & Non-Greasy Lotion Sunscreen SPF 50, Sunblock, Oxybenzone-Free, 6oz each

So okay, I should say up-front that I have albinism…which means I don't tan. Not even a little. In fact, not at all. But I can burn…very, very, very easily. So I have to be extremely careful in the sun…way more than almost anyone.. So you can imagine the preparation I made for a recent trip to Jamaica for my niece's wedding. Now I have used a lot of sunscreens throughout my life…and I have to say I pretty much hate all of them. The ones that are do a great job at keeping me safe from the sun are the very ones that feel and smell the worst. Even though I need it, I hate sunscreen…it's a necessary evil. So I was pretty pumped to see something with broad spectrum protection that claimed to be "light as air". And, I have to say, the Banana Boat pretty much lived up to that claim. It's basically non-greasy and, if you work it in for a few minutes, it feels pretty good. But what I especially love is that it has a very mild scent…sort of a pleasant hint of orange…which made me feel far less freaky while wearing it in public. During my Jamaica week, the Light as Air did an amazing job of keeping me sunburn free…and trust me, without it I would have been absolutely cooked…I am 100% certain of this. There are two bits of advice I would give, however. First is that you cannot skimp on applying it…you have to be fairly generous. If you give yourself a few minutes and time to work it in, it applies quite nicely and feels great…but it only works if you don't hold back…just take maybe ten minutes to work it in everywhere. The other bit of advice I would give is to take Banana Boat's suggestion that you re-apply every couple of hours because 50 SPF won't take you through more than a couple of hours. In effect, if you are in the sun for a week, like I was, you are very easily going to go through a whole container. But for me, ~$10 was worth it because this is the first sunscreen I've encountered that pretty much works for me, but which isn't at all icky or stinky to wear.

This is my new holy grail face sunscreen. I am 60+ years old. I used to like tinted sunscreen, but now they just settle into wrinkles. It is very hit and humid where I live (90° and 70% humidity). The gel sunscreens never dry here, while they worked perfectly in Arizona.This sunscreen doesn't burn my eyes, doesn't burn my skin, doesn't leave a white cast*, and I literally cannot feel that I am wearing it. I had oily skin for 50 of my years, so I hate the "dewy" look. THIS though...it makes my skin look like what dewy is supposed to look like. Not shiny and not matt. Just...fresh faced?

Daily sunscreen user. Usually use Coppertone Pure and Simple for my face but I wanted to find something less heavy for the summer. Heard good things about this one and decided to try it. Wow! So good. Light as air says it all. Sinks in immediately, even over sweat or damp skin from swimming. And the best part for me is that I can use it on my face without any irritation.

I wouldn’t say it feels like I have nothing on my skin but it is definitely the lightest sunscreen I’ve ever used. With no white cast on my light bronze skin. It has a little bit of shine to it, not too much. Just a healthy look. No grease as well.

I purchased this for a cruise to Fiji and Tahiti; where I knew I needed extra sun protection. It sinks in quickly, totally non-greasy, stays on in the water; and best of all, did not travel into my eyes. I have been using a store brand of high quality with only a 15 SPF as it was the only one that I had found that didn't travel to eyes and cause stinging. This sunblock ( SPF 50 ) kept my fair skin from burning!

After a trip to the dermatologist I decided it was time to start wearing sunscreen more often. I did a lot of research and ended up picking this product - I’m glad I did. I can’t stand the greasy feel of most sunscreens, especially on my face so I was very happy that this is very light and not greasy at all. I’ve read some reviews that slam the smell - I have to disagree, it’s a very mild “tropical” scent that dissipates rather quickly. This stuff is great, I’ll definitely purchase again.

I am very particular about sunscreen as I am very sensitive to the feeling of products on my skin, so far this is the best sunscreen I have tried. Truly non-greasy and absorbs fully. Doesn’t have an overpowering typical chemical sunscreen fragrance.

Amazing! Finally a pleasant sunscreen I can use all over my body whiteout it leaving a white cast on my face. It does sting a bit in my nose, I’m not sure if it’s suitable for my face.
