After searching and searching for that perfect sunscreen, I've finally found it. It applies smoothly and evenly to skin, it absorbs well without white residue, it contains mineral-based zinc oxide protection, it's SPF 50, all other ingredients are non-toxic. It smells like a tropical pina colada when first applied, but I like that the scent quickly fades. I absolutely love it and hope the formula doesn't change.

Bought this for the whole family to use. Like that zinc is used and is a natural ingredient. Item rated high on EWG's sunscreen list. Offers good UV protection but if going in the water make sure to reapply often. It's non-greasy and goes on easy. Just rub small amounts over each area so the zinc will absorb evenly.
Btw, product has a slight grapefruit scent. Nothing overwhelming though.

I've been using this sunscreen every day for a couple of weeks on my 4 yo. The sunscreen is a little greasy but goes on well and has a light, pleasant lemon-y scent. My daughter likes it; no complaints so far. And it seems to do its job. It is also a good size to throw in your bag or purse.

This is now my favorite sunscreen. It is a mineral base sunscreen but it rubs in so much easier then any other mineral base sunscreen I have used. It has a high SPF and the smell is light and pleasant (faint smell of vanilla).

We got several different tubes of mineral suncscreen for a recent beach vacation (others were Hang Ten (good), True (yuck)) -- this one was our favorite. Absorbs the best, non-irritating. Worked well at the pool & the golf course -- zero burns after 4 days in the sun.

We bought a ton of different sunblocks for a recent beach vacation. All the ones we bought were highly rated by EWG (http://www.ewg.org). This one was the favorite. Absorbed well, did not irritate the skin, and nice but light scent.

This sunscreen has the highest zinc oxide percentage in it of any sunscreens I've found. It is a very good sun protector, without a lot of cancer-causing chemicals like so many out there now. Although I hate applying cream sunscreens, this one is great for family use because it does a great job of protecting our fair skin. Wish it was a bigger size and less expensive.

Comments about thinksport Kids Sunscreen SPF 50+, 3 oz:
I use this sunscreen for my kids because it gets the highest rating from EWG for both effectiveness and lack of health concerns. It goes on white but its effective and safe so I am not concerned about the fashion statement.
Apply liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply: After 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, immediately after towel drying, at least every 2 hours.
