Most Helpful Positive Review AMAZING!! I love Sun Bum!! It's the only sunscreen I use on my children and myself. After being out in the California sun on a 100 degree day at an air show for 8 hours you can not even tell! Protection was AMAZING! It rubs in with no problem. Once applied you don't even realize you have it on and there is virtually no smell! I am never with out my Sun Bum sunscreen!
Most Helpful Critical Review I hate it. I give two stars because: it smells wonderful and it dries clear without the "white cast".
I'd give zero stars for this product as an over all rating because I found it to be too greasy and oily. It slips and slides around, gets into my eyes (and it **burns!!**), somehow it gets into my mouth, and instead of preventing tanning, I've been getting darker - even with less than 50 mins in the sun.
Unfortunately this particular product and formula is just not for me. I live in a very hot and humid environment and it doesn't hold up to the sweat or the sun.

First time I have issues with this product. Normally this spf is non oily as it's described in the Sun Bum website and as the product itself, but this time I decided to buy it at ulta alameda and to my disappointment the content in the bottles is as oily as a regular sunscreen. I need my money back! It made worst a skin condition I've been suffering with since the oil is bad and that's the reason why I've been using this product for about a year now. Returning it!!!
Too Oily 3
Loli from Oakland
I used to buy it because of it's non oily formula but this ulta in Alameda, California is selling this one with a lot of oil in it. What's going on? Not helping my skin at all with this much oil. It's that oily that it makes my skin to look shiny! Is this real or altered product?
Smells good, slight white cast 4
Gina from CA
This Sunscreen does the job for me. Has a nice coconut fragrance which I prefer over plain sunscreen scent. It dries in like 10 minutes and white cast does go away after a while. I haven't experienced any reactions using it.
I would and buy this product year after year 5
Grace from Pennsylvania
Wonderful smell and excellent protection!!
Awesome product! 5
Nemesis Genesis from Colorado
I have very pale skin and this sunscreen always keeps my skin safe- just remember to reapply as the directions state. It leaves a little residue (nothing bad or worse than most lotion) and have a gentle banana scent. Already on my second bottle!
My favorite! 5
Lina from New York, NY
I have been buying this sunscreen a few years now and I love it. I use it on my face and body and it protects me very well. I have fair skin and don't experience any sunburns thanks to SunBum. It is very hydrating and blends in well. Obviously it will burn your eyes a bit if you apply it heavy near your eyes otherwise, you should be fine.
Great sunscreen 5
OT from New York
It absorbs really fast, leaves no white marks/residue and not oily. I did not get burned after spending half of the day under the sun. The smell is little bit weird but other than that i highly recommend this lotion.
Burned and got blisters 1
Burnt from Nowhere
I got burned really bad and couldn't go out in the sun for a few day's. Some of the burn turned to blisters. Not sure if this was just not for me or what?
great product 5
azbunny from az
Love this sunscreen! I have never burned using it, and I burn easily.
Works and Smells Great! 5
Lisa from Gilbert, AZ
Love this sunscreen! Most sunscreens have chemicals in them that help to contribute to skin cancer! This has all natural ingredients that don't cause cancer, they help to prevent it!
Doesn't work 1
Melisa from West Covina
Me and my fiancé used this during the beach and he still got sunburned. Red-painful skin.

worked well 5
mighty mouse from lv
I use this product mainly when I go out swimming. What stood out to me about this product is that it smells good. It smells like coconut. The only complaint I have is that you basically have to apply this every 80min if you go in water. If I'm out all-day, that's a lot of applications. It gets kind of annoying.
Best sunscreen on the planet 5
Zan from Texas
I use this product year round! Living in Texas sunscreen is a must have. I have very sensitive skin and rosacea and it does not irritate my skin.
I buy this every summer! 5
Lina from New York, NY
I love this sunscreen! It smells great, is non-greasy/sticky and leaves the skin hydrated. I notice no white cast either. I love it and I always repurchase it.
Love it! 5
Juzzymom from San Diego
This is by far the best sunscreen I have ever used, infact the whole line is amazing. It rubs in, doesn't flake and prevents sun burn. The smell is great too.
Nice Good Smelling Sunscreen 5
Morgan from Alabama
I don't like to wear sunscreen a lot due to that smell and oily residue that it leaves on one's hands, but I'm prone to burns, so this is perfect! Easy to spread, absorbs nicely, protects, and smells nice!
I would buy this product again and WILL! 5
Vicki from Selah, WA USA
I have used this product for 2 weeks now. I love it. No sunburn when out in the sun gardening (I usually have to dash in every 30 minutes or so to check myself or apply MORE product!). No oily feeling and my skin loves it.
Amazing! 5
brilovesbeauty from Philadelphia
For reference, I am very fair naturally and burn very easily. Every body sunscreen I've ever used still makes me burn (and yes, I reapply as directed). This stuff is a game changer! Not only do I not burn, but I actually get tan more easily. The biggest selling point for me was that it blends in soooo well and isn't sticky or greasy whatsoever. It literally feels like a regular body lotion and I actually prefer this consistency over my normal lotions I use night and day. Seriously guys. Buy this!
Trust this product and doesn't irritate my skin!! 5
Ella from MN
I've repurchased this sunscreen for years. It works great especially compared to other "clean" sunscreens I've tried. It has a nice beachy scent, but nothing too overwhelming. It also doesn't leave a white cast like some sunscreens. Plus it's very moisturizing and not sticky!!
No sunburn here!! Great product! 5
Amanda from Chicago, IL
I burn really, really easily, but never when I'm wearing this Sun Bum sunscreen! I apply it before going out for a run, and it stays on perfectly through the sweat. I'm a repeat buyer and I highly recommend this product.
Would buy again 5
Marissa from Fairbanks, AK
I am personally a sun bum and love the outdoors during our hot summers here in Fairbanks. So I purchased one of the products with some nice reviews and it smells great and doesn't feel so sticky and greasy on my skin I love it
great sunscreen 5
dj from az
Stays on well. I burn easily but have not burned while using this product. Not oily, smells great.
Great product 5
Albuquerque girl from Albuquerque, NM
My daughter and I have never had a sunburn using this product. It rubs in easily, does not feel greasy and smells great. The only time I don't use it for long outings in the sun is when going in the ocean. I believe this product is not reef safe and make sure to use something that is marked as such when doing so.
Great Sunscreen, and Good For YOU! 5
Nessie from New York
I use this product daily, especially now that it is Summer and my arms, etc. are exposed. It smells fantastic, almost like a light banana fragrance. It is not greasy or chalky at all, which is a plus!
