 Turmeric Broad Spectrum 100% Natural Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30

Such a great everyday sunscreen! I love that it is 100% natural and uses non-nano zinc oxide for mineral sun protection. It feels moisturizing without being too heavy, and the turmeric and botanical ingredients are a nice bonus. It also has a very pleasant, subtle scent and feels gentle enough for daily use. A really nice option if you prefer clean, natural sun care with antioxidants!

I love this sunscreen. It says it is made for kids, which reassures me even more about how clean and gentle the formula is (not easy to find a non-nano Zinc Oxide sunscreen in the market). I really like that it is 100% natural and doesn't have that typical strong coconut or artificial sunscreen smell. I also love the consistency—it feels rich and nourishing, but at the same time it blends in beautifully and doesn't make my face look like a ghost, which is so important with a mineral sunscreen. For me, it is the last step of my skincare routine before I go out, and I can easily apply my makeup on top. When you read the ingredient list, you really feel like your skin is in safe hands (even scent it's natural and allergens free). What impressed me even more is how protected my skin feels when I wear it. For me, knowing that my skin is well protected with ingredients I feel good about is one of the most important things. I bet kids will love it too, especially because kids these days definitely don't want a sunscreen that leaves their face looking white. It really feels more like skincare than just sunscreen. I only wish it came in a bigger size, and I'm so happy that I can now find it at Ulta too!

Bought as I was looking for an all mineral sunscreen for my child and myself that doesn't have a white cast and the "turmeric" ingredient caught my eye. However, this sunscreen is like most mineral sunscreens on the market. It's very greasy at the recommended 1/4 tsp skin cancer foundation amount on the face. It never dries down. It feels like putting oil on the face. Not a pleasant experience. There is a slight milkiness to the skin even though I am the whitest shade of skin tone. I've had skin cancer before so I'm looking for something that feels good on the skin and will protect me. My hair also sticks to it so I couldn't put it on my ears or neck. I also wear contacts and it was so greasy, that it smeared around and into my eyes. I also have mild rosacea on my cheeks. Not sure which "natural" ingredient caused my cheeks to sting but thankfully the stinging went away after about 10 minutes. The fragrance isn't unpleasant but if you are sensitive to fragrance it is definitely there. Would not put this on my child nor recommend to any of my friends with children.
