Love this Sunscreen!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this sunscreen! Just used the whole bottle in 4 days at the beach between my daughter and myself though. So it doesn’t last long, but smells great and works great! We didn’t get burnt, and got a great tan! Ordering another bottle now!

Great sunblock, moisturizer, non-sticky and smells great!!
I’ve used a lot of sunscreen in my life being a fair skinned redhead and this product keeps me moisturized and prevented me from getting burned. We recently went to the French Polynesian islands and the sun hits hard down there and I never burned during our trip. I also absolutely loved how my skin felt moisturized and I never had dry skin from being in the pools and in the ocean. Plus, it smells amazing and you don’t feel sticky once it’s on.😊. Would highly recommend. Wish it was a little less in cost, but I love it.

Fantastic Sunscreen Lotion!
This sunscreen lotion is AMAZING! It smells fantastic (not at all like most sunscreen...cannot stand that nasty stink). And it is all natural so that is appealing as well. And yeah, it smells good and doesn't leave a gross/overly sticky type residue on your skin. It is also easy to wash off at the end of your day in the sun. And...most importantly, it works GREAT! Out in the sun and I didn't get burned at all. Highly recommend it (especially for anyone sensitive to regular sunscreen or if you can't tolerate the smell of regular sunscreen). This stuff is great!
