Tinted Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 2.4oz | Zinc Oxide, Reef Safe, Vegan, Broad Spectrum, Safe for Sensitive Skin (1-Count)

This is a really good wearable mineral face sunscreen. Indo not wear makeup so I can't say how it does under makeup but on its own its pretty wonderful. I have very dry skin and many sunscreens ferl so tight after a few hours I cant wear them, but this was hydrating and felt great ALL DAY. it's very thick but not hard to rub in and the tint worked well for me. Im a badic white girl lol, not too fair but not even close to tan. The tint was enough to look like I had a nice sunkissed tan. The description says translucent or that it rubs in translucent but it is definately tinted.....Sunscreen smell but not overwhelming. Overall a great option .

I’m fair skinned & require strong sunscreen for my face esp. due to a birthmark. I liked the idea of a tinted sunscreen & one containing zinc oxide, but I was worried that it would be to dark for my skin tone as many others would have been. The color blended well & provided decent coverage for my birthmark, better than tinted moisturizers I’ve tried. The product is thicker than sunscreen but it lasted all day & I didn’t burn. I only used the product on my face & I sprayed my ears with another sunscreen. I would think the color would show up on clothing etc if you use it on other body parts. Bottom line... this is good stuff & I definitely will buy it again.

It is thick so you do have to really rub it in to blend. It helped to rub between fingers first. Provided ok coverage and did match my skin tone.

This product arrived well packaged. Quick delivery. It is very thick, and does not spread easily. It is browner than Obagi tinted sun protection and much heavier. It isn’t as greasy as Anthelios tinted sun screen, but it is greasy and remains a little sticky. Obagi and Anthelios are better skin tone match, this product is dark brown even when spread out on skin. My skin is a cool pink undertone, so it is not a good match. It doesn’t set well. I tried powder on the top to set, but that just made a mess. Tomorrow I will try using a primer under it, because it is also very difficult to fully remove it from skin even with a makeup remover and soap. I haven’t tried it under a foundation yet, but that is because I can’t seem to get it to set, yet. I have some scars on my nose, and this does completely cover them, so it has a very dense and heavily pigmented wear. But, it smudges off into clothing, so you need to be careful, or find a way to get it to set. It does have good sun protection, and my skin (which is sensitive) has no reaction. I would give it a higher review if it were not so sticky and greasy.

I bought this after hearing Nick on Tim Ferriss’ podcast. Great product. Worlds worst packing. The pump stopped working after a week. We spend a ton of time at the beach and we use a lot of sunscreen. No need for the fancy pump. Just have a squeeze container.

I have tried 20 different non-chemical sunscreens and this one is by far the best. It might sound silly to say that being able to discreetly wear an SPF50 sunscreen daily without my eyes stinging and without looking like I was wearing sunscreen has made my life better, but it does, and I am very thankful I found this stuff. If you're reading this review I'll just assume you already believe that mineral (especially Zinc) based sunscreens are superior to chemical based sunscreens because they sit on top of your skin without absorbing into your bloodstream. That being said I'll just cut to why I have found this Amavara sunscreen to be better than every other mineral sunscreen I've tried, without compromise. -First and foremost, the tint is perfect. I can wear it all day and no one knows I'm wearing it. THAT'S HUGE. Nothing is a bigger buzzkill than having to wear stark white sunscreen when everyone else looks completely normal. It works for my skin tone and also my girlfriend's skin tone, even though she's slightly darker than I am. Actually, the other day I noticed my sunscreen wasn't where I left it, and when I asked my girlfriend about it she admitted that she had been using it as foundation...the tint is that good. (It also reminded me to write this review haha) -I look better wearing it than I do without it. -The finish is perfectly matte. -It's easy to put on and spread around, neither too runny nor too pasty. -It also stays put! Hiking, sweating, even in the water! I surf with it every day here in san diego. No eye stinging, and I even use it on my eyelids which is the new protocol. If your'e looking for the flip side of the coin, the "cons", I'll tell you this - I have literally tried every single tinted and un tinted mineral sunscreen I could get my hands on, and spent hundreds of dollars doing so. Amavara has been by far the best mixture of every feature I could ask for, even though other products do get some things right! -I found one other product with a comparably nice tint, but it literally never dried, so it would rub off on clothes or my hands if I touched my face later, and it literally said on the bottle that it's not meant to go in the water. -I also tried one other product that stays on better in the water, like glue, but it was SO hard to wash off i don't think it's worth the extra trouble. -and there's a plethora of products that don't get a single thing right, crumbly chalky yellow tree pollen looking pastes that are still expensive and seriously make me question if a single person ever bought the product twice. -And for what it's worth I have never found a "clear" or untinted zinc to be actually clear, just throwing that out there. So anyway, as someone who wears sunscreen EVERY DAY, from surfing, to work, to weddings...I'm thankful I came across Amavara and I would recommend it to anyone looking for the best sunscreen available.

One of the fellas at the beach was talking this stuff up, so I decided to give it a try. I have used both the SPF 30 and SPF 50 sunscreen lotion products heavily since. I'm in SoCal and in the ocean almost daily. And my use of these Amavara products has been in what is a record breaking hot summer for us here. And the water has been warmer than ever on record, so I have been at the beach more than ever. This is by far the best zinc sunscreen I've used. I love the not-greasy-at-all application. The lotion sinks right in and leaves my hands dry and skin moisturized and well protected. The pump mechanism is great for dosing applications too. This stuff is not cheap so it helps me use only what I need. The box says "water resistant 80 minutes" but mine kept me protected for way longer ocean sessions. Not that it matters to me too much, but I notice that Amavara sunscreen does not leave a pasty white film color like the others do. I highly recommend this sunscreen.
