Best Sunscreen on the Market

I purchased this while looking for a more natural sunscreen safe enough to use on my babies excema. This product really delivers, with natural ingredients, spf 30, non greasy, rubs in really well without a thick sunscreen slick like most and being safe enough for my babies skin, what's not to love! This is definitely the best sunscreen on the market and well worth the price.

Tips: Check out Oasis Beauty website for great deals. I got this as part of a package deal for a great price. You can also order samples of their products so that you can try before you buy

Sun safe essential!

I've been really wanting to try this product ever since I saw it on the market as I'm a sun-lover but have yet to find a sunscreen I love, so picked this up recently before a holiday to sunny Australia. I'm a sun-lover who loves lying on the beach, but these days working in healthcare I am a lot more conscious of sun safety so wanted something that would protect my skin without the heavy, greasy feeling most sunscreens provide.

The first thing I noticed about Oasis Beauty Sun is the consistency of the formula, it's a light lotion instead of a heavy cream, similar to a body lotion. I found if you applied a smaller amount at a time (as opposed to the huge dollops my boyfriend uses!) then the sunscreen absorbed pretty easy. Afterwards there was no greasy feeling or dodgy white cast yay (unless I really slathered it on of course!).

I have oily, acne-prone skin and normally I HATE wearing actual sunscreen on my face as it ends up a greasy mess. Oasis Sun is the first sunscreen I'm happy to wear on my face.

Sunscreen wouldn't be worth it if it didn't perform though, luckily Oasis Sun does! I have medium-toned skin and one day at the beach I had previously applied sunscreen to my chest and arms and completely forgot my stomach. A painful burnt belly followed but my arms and chest were fine, so at least I learnt it does the job!

Last notes - I also like that it's a physical sunscreen, cruelty-free and a New Zealand made product. The squeeze tube packaging is also really convenient for chucking in a beach bag.

This is now my sunscreen of choice and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Tips: If you're used to wearing a sunscreen which is 4 hours water resistant like I was, remember this one needs to be reapplied after every 2 hours, after swimming or sweating, or you'll end up a bit pink like I did!

HG Sunscreen: You need this in your life!

Even from a young age, I knew the importance of wearing sunscreen and using it all the time, whether is was sunny or cloudy outside. Only problem was the sunscreens I had access to were greasy, hard to rub into my skin, smelled unappealing and left a gross residue that often stained my clothes, making me more than happy to miss this essential product from my skin care regime.

Enter Oasis. I received this product as a sample from the Oasis website, and honestly I did not have high expectations for this product considering my previous sunscreen experiences. Boy was i wrong.

Firstly, lets start with the basic information, this sunscreen is SPF30, which is pretty good. The product is white, and thick enough to hold its shape easily. It has a faint smell, which does not smell chemically at all, and puts all those previous sunscreen experiences to bed! I would describe the smell as a faint almond essence smell combined with a fresh twist.

The formula, although white and thick is nothing like those other sunscreens I’ve experienced. Once applied to skin, it actually represents a lotion consistency, and is easily rubbed into skin. The sunscreen disappears completely, leaving no greasy residue on the skin, hydrating the skin as well as protecting it and I can honestly say this has never stained my clothes.

And here comes the final praise. This sunscreen is so lightweight that I use this as extra protection on my face, under my makeup, and it does not leave my skin oily, greasy or anything else undesirable. I always try to find a foundation, or product that has SPF in it, because I have never used a sunscreen that could be used in conjunction with my beauty products, until I tried Oasis Sunscreen.

Cannot recommend this product enough!

Best. Sunscreen. Ever.

I did something I have never done before (as an adult) with this product. Something I never dreamed could be done. I put sunscreen on my...gasp...face. Yes the same sunscreen I applied to my body. And it was gooooood.

Prior to this I wouldn't have dared which if why I'm such a fan of moisturisers and foundations/BBs with an SPF. Sunscreens mean greasy am I right ladies? And the idea of putting makeup on over sunscreen?... No just no. UNTIL NOW. Forget all you know of sunscreen because this product is revolutionary in it's amazingness.

Firstly let's address the grease factor, or the lack thereof. It's actually blooming lurvely. I'd almost use it as a moisturiser, in fact. It's quickly absorbed and doesn't leave a residue.

when I first took a squiz at it I was a little dubious. It has an odd tinge to it that is clearly zinc. I was sceptical about it's "no white" claim because it straight up looks like sudocrem (baby bum zinc cream aka the most hard to remove and off-whitest substance on earth). I was completely off base with these fears, however, and, as claimed, there was no whiteness.

Another HUGE plus for me is the fact that this is a product the whole family can use. I've been using it on my 17 month old daughter who has extremely sensitive skin and awful eczema and it's great on her too.

I mentioned above that I used this on my face. I went a step further than this and applied it over my moisturiser and under my makeup. Against my better judgement I should add, it sounds cuckoo right? Not only did it not result in the slippity slidey greaseball mess I envisioned, it actually gave me an amazing finish and a gorgeous dewey glow.

Oh and as if all of this wasn't enough it's also a New Zealand brand, animal friendly, organic, and almost natural (which is pretty good as far as sunscreens go most are really quite chemical-laden).

INCREDIBLE!!! I LOVE IT SOOOOO MUCH!!! EXCUSE CAPITALS I AM SO OBSESSED WITH THIS!!!!

Tips: Support a local brand and buy this amazing product then get out in the sun and enjoy summer knowing your precious skin is protected. Being sunsmart is so important ladies.

LOVE!

Love love LOVE this sunscreen! I was lucky enough to be chosen to trial this product and have been using it as an everyday moisteriser before applying my makeup. A little totally goes a long way, It isnt the most affordable but definately worth every penny, packaging is nice and simple, and my inner hippy loves that theres no nasties ^.^ It is super moisterising, non greasy and gives a dewy finish. I have blemish prone skin and it hasnt broken me out, infact my skin has actually been really good and alot brighter lately. I love that its for the whole family, I also used it on my oldest daughter who suffers from terrible eczema and the sunscreen didnt irritate or flare it up like other sunscreens and creams do. Would definately use this again and reccomend everyone to give it a go esp those with problamatic skin.

Tips: Apply 20minutes before sun exposure. Before applying makeup i let it sink in for about 10mins. If you prefer a matte look (gives a natural dewy finish) try applying powder before foundation

Oasis SunScreen!!

First off - I love the smell, I can't quite pinpoint it but I am guessing its the rosemary in the Sunscreen.

I received it very fast! Which was great. More time to trial!

It hasn't been very sunny where I live. But I still applied it everyday, to see its other qualities.

I did not react to it which was great because I do seem to have a reaction to most Sunscreens. It left my skin nice and soft, and did not leave a sticky residue which was great.

On one of the very few days it was sunny, I wore a short dress for trial purposes and applied a reasonable amount to my arms, legs and chest. Surprisingly my extremely pale skin, did not turn or burn.

I really so love this product, I love the smell, I love how I do not react and I love how it actually works!!!

Tips: Tried it on my friends tattoo, it worked great and now she steals it all the time -.-

Perfect protection

I was lucky enough to be picked to trial this product and was buzzing about four factors. 1. Cruelty free! What's better than that?! 2. Can be used on the whole family, I have a family to protect against the sun including a 1 year old, glad this was safe to use on her 3. New Zealand made, I'm all for New Zealand made products! And 4. Made for sensitive skin, I have very sensitive skin., eczema, dry skin etc

The packaging is sturdy but a little bulky, however I did notice this product comes in all sizes from 50ml to 500ml maybe have the bigger tube for at home and a smaller one for in the bag to take places with you? :)

I used this product on my partner, myself, my 7 year old and my 1 year old and we didn't get burnt at all so it definitely protects you from the sun. None of us had any reaction to the product either which I was super happy with as I have sensitive skin, so a big tick for that!

I also loved how thick it was, and how easy it was to rub in, unlike a few others we have tried which have been runny and greasy. Oh and it smells lovely, It's most certainly not an over powering smell. There are other sunscreens you can get and can still smell on yourself after it has throughly been rubbed in, this product is not like that.

I will continue using this product as our family protection against the sun, we as a family are rather happy with it! I have already recommended it to a group of my mummy friends!

Tips: A little really does go along way, but be sure to be fully covered! Maybe buy a small tube for when you and your family are out and about :)

Oasis Beauty Sun Lotion

I got my first tube a while ago, as I wanted something that would protect my skin from the sun but without all of the chemicals. When you first put it on it is white, but it very quickly soaks into your skin and doesn't leave a greasy residue. The added bonus is that I can use it on all of the family, even my six month old. It is more expensive than supermarket sunscreen, but it beats buying a separate product for each family member. The only downside is that it washes off with heavy perspiration or swimming, so you do need to remember to reapply it regularly.

Lovely product

I was very happy to get this product to trial, I had JUST run out of my last bottle of sunscreen so it was perfect timing. Firstly I like the tube, nice and sturdy, good cap, stands up straight and fits easily in my collection of products. This product goes a long way, I find I use alot less of it than my previous sunscreen. Rather than that usual feeling of sunscreen on the skin, this product just feels like you have used moisturiser on your skin which is really nice and not sticky at all. I used it on my face and it felt fine, not sticky or un-natural like a mask. The smell isn't particularly appealing but it doesn't last on the skin so it doesn't bother me at all. And most importantly, it does it's job and prevents sunburn. This product is more expensive than other sunscreens but if you really prefer natural skin products I think this is a good choice, it doesn't stain white clothes either (which is an issue I have dealt with before). I will happily continue to use this product I think I will repurchase also.

Tips: A little goes a long way so don't squeeze a huge dollop out at once! Go a little at a time.

oasis beauty sun lotion

i have used this product on all of my family members and was very excited to see that it can also be used on babies as we have a 1 year old in our family.

my partner works outside for his job and has been using this on his face and arms, he likes that it doesn't clog up his pores as his skin is prone to acne. He found it very easy to apply and wasnt much trouble to wash off in the shower.

My 2 sons also used this product 1 is a busy daycare boy who is outside about 60% of the day and i found it very quick and simple to apply to him usually he gripes and moans because of the fragerance some lotions have but not with this one so it was very easy to pop on his skin before daycare.

My 11 year old is also applying this before school and he commented that unlike the other sun lotions we have had this one does not leave a thick white 'skin' as he would put it so definetly a hit with the kids.

at first i was a little apprehensive about applying ti to my face as i have sensitive skin but there was no issues and it was very easy to wash off. Overall I highly reccomend this product its a very good all round sun lotion for the whole family which is great saves money not having to buy different sun lotions.

love it!
