I love this sunscreen and always look out for it on special. I don't bother with the small tubes. I buy the huge 500ml pump bottle, which also makes it much easier to use. I react to a lot of sunscreen and this one is really gentle and doesn't make me break it in horrible rashes or have hideous skin breakouts! I feel very comfortable using it on my kids too. It doesn't sting, it rubs in well without leaving heavy residue and most importantly isn't full of horrible chemicals. I have done a lot of looking into sunscreens and all the chemicals most seem to use and this one was really good and it also protects well from the sun so it's a win win. Another added bonus is that it is a locally made product! Yay! It is my go to all over body sunscreen. Sometimes I have a slightly thicker one for faces etc as we are a very fair family and sometimes I feel like it doesn't last as long or is higher spf as I would like.

i applied this sun lotion as a foundation which you have to pad gently into the skin but not rubbing like a normal sun cream ,and it works perfectly ,not oily at all even controls the oil during the time and helped with my acnes as well .
I really like this sunscreen. I have a small tube that I use just for my face/neck because using normal sunscreen tends to make me greasy and breakout.
This sunblock doesn't make me greasy and my skins feels normal after I've applied it which is completely foreign with me and sunblocks! The only thing is that you don't rub this sunscreen in, you let it sit on your skin and sort of sink in. I don't really have a problem with this but it can be a bit of a hassle if you're rushing out the door and suddenly remember to put sunblock on. Waiting 15 minutes for it to disappear into your skin can be quite a while.
Apart from that, I can't really criticise this product. I might even think about buying a larger tube to use on my body too.
Tips: Remember to reapply this product every two hours as per the directions on the bottle.
This is the only sunscreen I buy to put on my children's skin. I love that it doesn't need to be rubbed in 100% (it sinks in on its own), so I can see that I haven't missed any spots.
I trust this brand not to use ingredients that could potentially damage my family's skin.
It comes in a decent-sized tube that can be easily thrown in my handbag and has an easy-to-access flip top. It's expensive, but it lasts a long time, so it's worth the money.
I've got several friends and family members onto this sunscreen and they're all converts.
Tips: Be aware this is NOT waterproof, so go for the Oasis Beauty sunscreen with the blue tube if you're going swimming.
I used this as my everyday sunscreen for about a year. I have dry sensitive skin prone to excema and this was super gentle, moisturising, and provided great sun protection!
Tips: It can be a little heavy/greasy looking so beware if your skin if more on the oily side!
So happy to have found a sunscreen that is suitable for my sensitive skin. When my skin was going through a sensitive period, other sunscreens were making my face go red (looking like I had sunburn when it was actually just the sunscreen!) but thankfully I tried this one and had no problems. Gives great sun protection too. It does look very white when you put it on, which mostly disappears over a few minutes as it sinks in, but does leave my skin looking a shade whiter. Consistency is also fairly thick and so it takes me a big longer to apply all-over compared to other sunscreens. But these issues don't bother me as I am just happy to have a sunscreen that my skin is happy with. I would definitely repurchase and/or try out some of their other sunscreens too.
Feels very heavy. Made me sweat so bad within minutes of applying. My skin is dry/sensitive. Has a white cast but hardly noticeable. Tried on my 1 year old and within 20 mins it formed small white balls in the creases of her neck. I was excited to try this but wouldn't purchase or recommend. I tried to put a review on their website but it disappeared.
I’ve purchased this many times over the last ten years as my skin is very reactive it’s hard to find a sunscreen that is gentle enough but still looks and feels good once applied. I think this is quite a smart and balanced formulation, the two actives being physical + chemical (zinc and octinoxate) allows far less white cast and heaviness than a fully physical block, yet none of the greasiness and stinging that you’d get from a chemical formulation.
Non greasy, not sticky. Great coverage and protection. Doesn't leave you looking shiny, smells pleasant (not that horrible sunscreen smell).
This sunscreen is so worth the price, although it’s rather price, the ingredients speak for themselves, I love using this on my face and occasionally on my body too, but most of the time just face and neck & décolleté and a cheaper sunscreen for body. It’s so hydrating, but not shiny at all and works great under makeup too. I do wish this wouldn’t be so pricey, but I’ll continue using it until it’s gone and I’d definitely repurchase a smaller sized one, it’s great to have in the handbag or car, I like having sunscreen handy as I don’t like being caught without. For me personally SPF 30 is enough, I don’t get burnt much anyway, but 30 is the lowest I’d go in sunscreens.
