BLUE LIZARD Sport Mineral-Based Sunscreen Lotion - SPF 50+ - 5 oz

Pros:- It WORKS. I have never gotten sunburned when using this sunscreen. I am fair and blond, and always burn at least twice before I tan. Or, I used to... I've tested it in Panama, Costa Rica, and Florida, and I love the water. It passed the test.- Goes on nicely, isn't too thick, and rubs in well. There may be a faint white trace visible, especially once you go into the water, but if so it is minimal.- It feels like you're wearing nothing. Non-sticky, non-greasy, lightweight. I feel like I should reapply it because it's so lightweight.- Very mild, non-offensive scent.- It's doesn't harm the sea life (or humans).- Non cancer-causing ingredients.- Its cool, color-changing bottle distracts kids so you can get them to hold still while you apply it.Cons:- It may leave a slight white cast to skin, more so if you don't rub it in properly, but much less than any other mineral sunscreen that I have tried, other than my tinted Elt* MD mineral sunscreen, but it costs a LOT less.

Works great for the whole family! We all like to be in or near the pool, but not the sunburn! This is a great sunblock!

I love this sunscreen. I was looking for a zinc only sunscreen option & found this. It does spray a white cast but that goes away when you rub it in. No chemical sunscreen smell.

This sunscreen had such great reviews, but after using it myself I have no idea why. I used it on my 11yo daughter at the beach thinking it would be great for her, but she got so burned she could not move for days afterwards, she was in so much pain. I sprayed it on her skin, rubbed it in and had re-applied every hour, covering her from head to toe. But she may as well have not worn any sunscreen at all!! She had a dance photo shoot the next day and she was so burned she couldn’t put her costumes on, let alone do any poses. It hurt for her to move, plus she looked like a lobster. I used a generic spray sunscreen on myself and I did NOT get burned. I felt so bad. I thought I was using the best stuff for her but it was the worst. A month later, I used it on myself because that’s all I had on hand and I got burned to a crisp! What kind of sunscreen is this?!?!?! Not only that, but the nozzle broke right after I used it on myself so it couldn’t be used again (which was actually a good thing). This sunscreen caused so much pain. NEVER AGAIN!!!

We’ve been using Blue Lizard Mineral Lotion for years—ever since our pediatrician recommended it when our kids were toddlers. It quickly became our go-to sunscreen every summer. The coverage is amazing, and it truly lasts through long beach days, pool time, and outdoor play. Yes, it leaves a bit of white residue, but honestly, that's a small price to pay for protection that actually works and doesn’t wash off easily. We've always felt confident putting it on our kids' sensitive skin.Just recently, we stumbled upon the Blue Lizard spray, and we might be converts. It’s so light and airy, and my 7-year-old can reapply it by himself at camp—huge win. It still gives us the trusted protection we love, just in a much more convenient form. We’ll probably keep both on hand, but the spray is definitely a new favorite for busy summer days.Highly recommend both versions—Blue Lizard continues to impress us year after year.

The media could not be loaded. Sprays really smoothly! My husband who hates putting on sunscreen really liked this one, and I was happy to get it with a mineral 50 SPF. The only reason this isn’t getting a perfect five stars, is because the spray stopped working suddenly when we were out, and only started working again at home. I don’t know if it was heat related or if the nozzle got clogged, but I ended up buying a replacement because I thought it was broken. The spray bottles may need a lot of shaking and/or delicate handling to work properly, fyi.

This product is great for kids in the pool or ocean. It is very waterproof and you can even see the water beading on top of the sunscreen. It doesn't go on super clear, which can be an advantage for determining coverage. One other unique feature is the bottle itself changes color to indicate it is currently exposed to UV light although that is basically anytime you walk outside in daytime.

It’s not a typical everyday sunscreen. It leaves a white cast so i’ve been using it only if i be under the sun for an extended period of time. The protection level is great and it don’t easily come off. I thought maybe i could use it while swimming too but it came off. Overall very strong protection.
