Pipette Broad Spectrum Sunblock Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 with Non-Nano Zinc, UVB/UVA Non-Toxic Sun Protection for Babies and Kids (4fl. oz)

I am very happy i found this Mineral SPF. After finding out i am pregnant I had to change a lot of my cosmetics and I was struggling to find a good sunscreen that doesn't make my makeup look cakey. It is light-weigh and can look a bit oily on it’s own but it performs great under makeup, I highly recommend it if you are looking for pure mineral SPF that is safe during pregnancy and for your baby.

Love this product

I'm love with this sunscreen for my kids. Clean and stays on for a good amount of time.

I haven't tried this out in the sun yet but first impressions, the formula feels like a moisturizer on the skin and when you blend it in, it has a minimal white cast (I'm quite pale though so I'm not sure how it'll be on darker skin tones). This also pairs nicely under makeup so that's a big plus. The only thing I'm concerned about is the that package arrived very hot to the touch (almost like the formula was boiled) and it was even sloshing around in the container when I shake it. I put it in the fridge for a while and I guess it turned back to normal. I opened it after it cooled down and the formula didn't appear to be separated or damaged so perhaps the hot temperature was just a temporary thing. However, I'm kind of worried about the shelf storage conditions because sunscreens in particular can degrade in high temperatures and lose their efficiency against the sun rays. Aside from that, everything else about the product seemed fine, it felt great on the skin and it had no unpleasant smell. I wish it was water resistant though because I would like to wear it to the beach but I'm not sure it'll be safe to use there. Edit: I wore it outside and it felt great! It was a bit greasy feeling at first but after half an hour it settled down and gave me a beautiful subtle glowing look. I have dry to normal skin and this made my dry areas look incredibly smooth. So far I'm very satisfied with this product and I'll definitely purchase it again in the future.(I also made my younger sister try it and she loved it as well despite being quite picky about product textures.)

Came across this mineral sunscreen product having zinc oxide after having done careful research for sunscreen ingredients. Was so excited about using this product but the delivered sunscreen expiry was listed as July 2023 basically within 3 months expiry (Ordered in mid March 2023). Still thought to give it a shot, but the sunscreen was already separated into two layers on opening the tube - not at all the creamy consistency everyone is talking about. So basically it's not a new or even usable product as ordered. Also, the package was slightly hot when it was delivered - not sure if that made it worse.

Very thick and transparent liquid separate from the thick cream when we squeeze out for using. Not comfortable on skin. Waste of money.

He visto que dermatólogos recomiendan protectores solares tipo minerales (como este) para pieles acneicas, pero en lo personal, a mi piel no le cayó. Tengo piel mixta (zona t grasa, mejillas normales y bozo seco), así que si tienes este tipo de piel o no has probado protectores solares minerales te recomiendo no usarlo porque está muy pesado para nuestro tipo de piel. Lo ocuparía más para piel del cuello, que ocupa un extra de hidratación y protección.

Quite thick and feels a bit oily. Smell wasn't very strong. Able to use for daily use. Might leave a white cast if not spread evenly.

I have pale, dry skin, and I burn easily. I wear sunscreen for preventing premature aging, so I wear this on my face, neck, and hands. I also have mild rosacea. Also, as much as I do prefer mineral sunscreens, some of the claims they make have been proven false or exaggerated. Science can't actually prove that chemical sunscreens harm coral reefs because they can't test on a large enough scale. And the claim that harmful chemicals are absorbed into the bloodstream is mostly a marketing tactic, not all sunscreen chemicals are harmful. Do your own research, and remember: the best sunscreen is the one that you will wear every day. That being said, here are my pros and cons for this sunscreen. The pros: - this is a mineral sunscreen: my face in particular can't handle chemical sunscreens - it's lightweight and easy to rub in - it doesn't burn my eyes unless I rub them and get the product in them, which is my own fault - it leaves a dewy finish. My skin is dry, so I prefer this to a matte finish - I get a tiny amount of white cast, but it goes away after it gets absorbed into the skin - it is very moisturizing, I stopped using my moisturizer in the morning when I started using this - it smells like sunscreen, but not really. And it goes away almost instantly - it's broad spectrum and SPF 50. We don't know the PPD value, but 20% zinc oxide is pretty high, and zinc oxide itself is a good sun-blocking ingredient. - the ingredients: squalene is super moisturizing, and glycerin is a good humectant. It's also fragrance-free - it's NOT water-resistant. This is a pro for me for 2 reasons. (1) some water-resistant sunscreens make my face break out and (2) I can't wash my face with a cleanser every day, so I need a sunscreen that comes off with just water The cons: - it feels weird on the skin before it absorbs. While squalene is very moisturizing, it has a texture and if you're sensitive then this can be a little uncomfortable for a few minutes while it absorbs. - it's also sticky while it's absorbing - if you put a full 2 fingers worth on at one time, it feels weird and heavy. I do 1 finger, let it absorb, then do another 1 finger I work in an office, so I only apply this before I leave for work. If I'm out for the day, I re-apply every 2 hours. After the 4th or so application it does start to feel heavy, but at least I know my skin is moisturized and protected. All in all, I will be repurchasing this as long as they don't make it water-resistant. I can wear it every day, and reapply as needed with no issues. Update 5/9/2022 I have repurchased this sunscreen twice now. I still love it and it's the only one I can use consistently. Another pro is that the squalane makes this a really good slip for my morning gua sha routine.

This is an excellent physical sun block. It is part of the Pipette baby product line, but adults can use it too. 1. Very easy to spread. Among physical sunblocks, it is one of the easiest to spread. This is in contrast with Blue Lizard and Badger, which are so thick and the difficulty to spread has become a deterrent to use. And the best sunscreen is the one that you feel like consistently using and actually use. 2. It has a slight white cast. There’s no non-nano zinc oxide based sunscreen that absolutely doesn’t leave any white cast. Any claim contrary to that is nothing but a marketing ploy. Zinc oxide is white, unfortunately. With that said, this sunblock leaves the least amount of white cast I’ve ever seen for a 100% physical sunscreen. Considering it contains 20% of zinc oxide, this is very impressive. I have olive skin tone, the white cast is only slightly noticeable. However, if you have brown or dark brown skin, the white cast will be more obvious. 3. It is slightly greasy and leaves a shiny sheen on my normal skin, but not too much. Again, for 100% physical sunblock, greasiness is typical, as it needs an vehicle to carry the mineral. Some other products I tried are much worse. This one is pretty tolerable. But for people with oily to very oily skin, it probably doesn’t feel very comfortable. 4. This sunscreen is not water resistant. There’s no water proof sunscreen. But some sunscreens are water resistant. They will be labeled as such on the package. You can see water resistant label for either 40 minutes or 80 minutes in US. This sunscreen is not water resistant. This may not be an issue for babies, for whom the Pipette products line is designed for. But for an adult, if you want to wear it for sport or any water activities or if you just sweat a lot, this will not fit the purpose. On the other hand, not being water resistant means it is easily cleaned off at the end of day (no need to use special cleansing oil). So it may be an advantage for daily use.

The Pipette 50spf Sunscreen that came in this 4 oz tube has been a lifesaver for this red haired, sensitive skin sun lover!!! I react to many chemicals, and strive to use natural. After trying many and determining that zinc oxide was too drying for me, I finally discovered Pipette. This original formula with moisturizing Squalane as the 3rd ingredient (high in product content), fit the bill 100%. My dry skin went undamaged, and the sunscreen works. Note: you MUST shake before applying. It alleviates a yellow or white cast if you do, and worth the effort.
