At first I thought I wasted my money, but the more I use it the more I love it. I have acne and I don't use make up because it irritates my skin. When I apply this product it not only protects me from sun damage it also minimises redness on my face, which I absolutely love.. Really the only issue is applying it because I don't want to pull on my face because its bad for you to be rough with your skin and it almost feel like an exfoliation which isn't always great if you use it daily. But that said I will continue to use it as I feel the benefits outweigh the drawbacks at this stage.

It was hard to apply, and felt grainy on my skin. And once it was on I looked pale. I then realized that it was meant to be applied thick like the cricketers do it. Not what I wanted.

It is very hard and difficult to apply. Mine started to create little "sandy grains" in the paste, I wonder if it is the Zinc Oxide grouping, if so then the protective factor is gone when I remove the granules. The colour is also very light, not suitable for people with more of an olive, tan skin tone.

You will not burn,that I can guarantee you.
I walked in the sun for 6 hours, and did not burn at all.
It might be challenging to apply in the beginning as it is grainy and really, really hard-a really hard paste! but you will soon grow to love it like I have. I'm not looking back.
It leaves an excellent matte finish and feels great on skin.
I love it.

Very strange texture and a bit of a mission to apply, but it kept us from burning during quite a long hike. It does sit on your skin so I got sweaty quite fast and had to reapply quite often as I kept rubbing it off. It did a good job. Will see how it holds up in the water.

It takes a bit of work blending it in your skin. I like that it does not leave an oily residue and it has a slight tint which works well to cover redness on your face....and no break-outs.

It's great, looks lovely on the skin, not super shiny, and I love that it is not whitening but you do need to rub it in, and that is slightly uncommon for a sunscreen but doable.

Works very well

I like it, Its quite hard, but softens to friction (heat of your finger). Tested it in the sun yesterday, seems to have done the job really well. Also, very nice tub that fits into any bag.

Not easy to apply on the skin at all. So hard and crumbly, not sure if I am doing anything wrong, cause I just see good reviews, but I dont like this at all.

I received this as a sample and will definitely buy it once its finished. It goes on smoothly, and because I am quite pale it blends in with my skin. My skin is pretty sensitive but this doesn't cause any reactions. It has also worked really well when in the sun. No burning as of yet. I look forward to trying it when scuba diving.

Stand out product that protects well and smell great, easy for girls and guys alike to use! It really stays on and protects you!

Smells amazing I wanted to eat it ! Incredible product, lasts the whole day in the sea.

Bought this recently before going to Tankwa Karoo and I am so pleased with the coverage. Another thing I like about this product is that it is plastic free.

Ordered this before a Summer trip to Mozambique and was so thrilled with the results.
Very thick, and certainly makes the skin look a quite ashy, but applied it to all areas that burn easier and found it to be incredibly effective.
We spent hours in the water each day and didn't burn.

A bit ashy but great coverage. will definitely buy it again.

Really effective sunblock! Does leave skin a bit grey, but that doesn't bother me.

Smells really good and 100% waterproof - in fact, sometimes it's even hard to wash it off after a surf-session!
