CoolaOrganic Mineral Sunscreen Sunblock Body Lotion, Dermatologist Tested Skin Care for Daily Protection, Vegan and Gluten Free, 5 Fl Oz

I love this product, especially my husband because it’s all-natural. It contains minerals that leave a slight white residue on the face. While it would be nice to have a clearer texture, it does a beautiful job of protecting you from the sun.

This is one of the healthier sunscreens I’ve found so far. You’re not likely going to find a mineral sunscreen that doesn’t leave some white cast. However, this one rubs in pretty good with minimal cast.You can dab on and rub in fairly easily… as long as you don’t use too much the white cast should be minimal. I am not sure how well this would work on darker skin tones. My arms are a medium skin tone… my legs are more of a light-medium tone.I prefer mineral sunscreens, and this is the best one I found so far and compatible to Supergoop mineral play. If you liked that one, you would likely enjoy this Coola one too.

I bought this product because I was going to be in the field for a month, outside, every day, all day, in Tanzania at high altitude. A severe sunburn would be hard to treat in the remote area we were in, but also I am very careful about protecting my skin from aging. I had to have mineral based sunscreen because as a whitewater kayaker I know it’s the only truly water resistant kind and it was going to be sweaty. And since I knew I was going to be putting it on every day, and we didn’t have running water in the field (bucket showers only) I didn’t want it to feel gross. (I really wanted to try the spray but I didn’t want to put anything pressurized in my luggage.) And I had already discovered the Coola face sunscreen (30spf version) which had impressed me with how silky smooth and not greasy it is. Now this IS greasier because it is a higher SPF. BUT I think this product is as good as you’re going to get with the protection you’re getting. Like I said, I’m a white water tiger, so I have used a LOT of mineral sunscreens. This was hands down the most comfortable one I’ve used. And it was effective. I didn’t burn once—only time I did burn was when I forgot to put it on one day toward the end of the trip, when we were out for just a couple hours—and I got the first 2nd degree burn I’ve ever had in my life. That was what this stuff had protected me from, all day every day, the entire trip. I did tan a little but I think that was mostly from the few times I was not covered during short bouts or it was cloudy. For my face I used the Coola 50spf face product.

This is my go to sunscreen for dog walks - i try to remember to put it on before the afternoon walk at least:)

This is a great mineral sunscreen that was recommended by my dermatologist. The only negative is you have to really work it to spread it on your skin, and it will leave a bit of a white cast. A white cast is common with mineral sunscreens and won’t be an issue if you’re fair-skinned, but will likely show a bit on darker skin tones. It’s a bit “drier” than some of the other mineral sunscreens I’ve used, and I still prefer the Dr. Jart Every Sun Day Mineral Sunscreen for my face.

Far far far from “sheer.” My kid’s mineral sunscreen leaves less of a cast than this. Not worth the price. Very disappointed.

I've been looking for a mineral sunscreen that does not leave my skin looking purple when I apply it! Most of them have a white cast and when you apply to the skin, it turns it to a weird purple shade. This one does not do that! It's not too thick and rubs into the skin really well. We spent a week in Antigua. I applied once in the morning and ZERO sunburn. Only needed to reapply one other time in the afternoon. Great product. I will purchase again!

Was opened, dried up, impossible to use. Bought for a trip, so by Oct wasn't at home or soon enough to return. I’ve used this brand for many things so I didn’t need to try it at home. Big mistake. Very disappointed in what used to be a favorite brand. Would like a refund!
