Goes on smooth and is best rated for non-tanning, by an asian in Asia.
My Thai fiance loves this stuff! If you know any asian women (esp if from Asia), then you know they have a strange affinity for avoiding the sun or getting a tan. We westerners don't get it, we all want a nice golden glow.I went through several brands, Sun Bum, Neutrogena, and one other (forgot), but she really likes this one the best. Most other brands, if you read about them, still allow for tanning even though they are high SPF ratings. Sun Bum is one of these. Not lamming on SB, it is a great product that my daughter loves and I like to use and smells good, but you will still get darker using it (which most ppl desire) regardless of the spf (I recall them stating this on the bottle. My fiance uses this daily and in abundance so it goes far. You do need to let it sit for at least 20 to 30 before hitting the water and it still requires retreatment depdning on how actively you are swimming. I will take her some Coppertone 100 and see how this measures up but so far, BB 100 is the favorite.

Classic and efficient sunscreen.
Love the brand! It sticks out and serves its purpose for great and long lasting sunscreen. I use these for both the beach and long distance runs.It is bit oily at first but it still absorbs well.It has the classic sunscreen smell. So again this is an efficient, classic, product that does the job well.If you’re looking for a fancy good smelling sunscreen with more “chemicals” then this isn’t for you

Does the Trick
Works like a charm when adequately applied. We have a light-skinned family and require something like this to avoid getting to red. Never had a problem when we remembered to use it!

Keep your skin wrinkle-free
I've been using this product for years. Nothing is as good at keeping wrinkles away. This winter I stopped using Banana Boat sunscreen for a while, and that was a mistake. The other products I was using did not help prevent wrinkles, and I began noticing wrinkles on my face. Now I'm back using Banana Boat on my face and look better already. I highly suggest this product for both men and women.

Great but some shine
Sunscreen is a very important part of the skincare routine. Who cares about the results you get from the rest of your routine for your hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, etc if you aren't doing anything to protect it from the UV damage. This sunscreen offers that protection and seems to do it well which is the most important function of a sunscreen.The experience of the sunscreen for me was also positive. The sunscreen comes out white but applies clear which you would expect from an organic sunscreen. It has that stereotypical sunscreen scent but I personally love it and it psychologically ignites nostalgia for the days spent at the beach. It reminds me of the time going to the beach, making sandcastles and eating popsicles as a kid. However, I know some find this unpleasant. For those in this camp, I would not recommend this. Outside of this, however, the feel is a bit greasy at first but goes away after some time. One minor issue I find is that is does have some shine. Some people might like it but I find it is a bit much but not as bad as others on the market. In the photos you can see what it looks like before and after application. You might not be able to tell from the photos but there is some shine. Others will most likely be able to tell that you have something on.One thing I really want to point out is that this is a chemical sunscreen that uses organic UV filters meaning they are carbon containing compounds but that does not make it bad. Clean beauty brands tend to villainize these as they "contain chemicals" or are "toxic" but these claims can be highly disputable. For one, a lot of things are chemicals. Water is a chemical but you wouldn't avoid using products with that in it. Also, a company would not allow the use of actually toxic ingredients in a skincare product. There are clearly banned substances listed by the FDA that will not make their way to your sunscreen and they also protect consumers from large exposure by restricting the quantity an ingredient can be used. The heat produced from chemical sunscreens are also minuscule compared to that of physical (or inorganic) sunscreen. These are just a couple of reasons that chemical sunscreens are very much safe (as far as we know it) according to science.I'm sorry for the small rant. I know that most of the people who see this review are looking at it because they know chemical sunscreens are not the devil as they are looking at this product but I was hoping to dissuade people who adhere to the clean beauty methods from being swept up from the fear-mongering marketing.
