SPF 45 Every Day Kids Mineral Sunscreen | 2.5 Fl Oz Biodegradable, Paraben Free & Reef Safe Sunscreen for Face & Body for Kids | Non-Greasy, Lightweight & Sheer Mineral Protection Against UVA & UVB

I've likely gone through 30+ different facial sunscreens in the past year and half, including but not limited to: 5 of EltaMDs, Neutrogena, 3 of La Roche Posay, Cerave, Cetaphil, 3 of Blue Lizard, 3 of SuperGoop, Waxhead, Suntegrity, etc.) trying to find the most optimal one for my needs. Although I found an everyday chemical Korean one which is not staining but not waterproof, I still wanted one that I could use for physical/sweating activities as well, and something that could color blend my face nicely together as a man. And this Stream2Sea Tinted right here is the one.Pros:- EWG Verified, one of only a few tinted zinc sunscreens that is- Never pills (Out of 11 tinted zinc sunscreens, this is the only one with no piling for me. Take this with a grain of salt though, I've seen reviews say that before but I didn't have the same experience as them)- High Zinc Oxide % = Better UV-A Protection (my main concern is UVA Spectrum coverage)- Included anti-oxidants, having free radical protection is an often overlooked factor of sun protection that needs more attention as it damages skin- Price (at time of purchase): $~11/oz, very comfortable pricing (compared to EltaMD of $~21/oz)- Excellent tint tone, can blend with different skin colors- I don't believe this feels greasy- No skin irritation on me- Sunscreen does not "crack" when stretching skin like EltaMD does (stretching as in opening mouth to eat, yawning, etc.)Neutral/No Factor:- Moisturizing factor not noticed, as I apply a moisturizer 3-5 min beforehand- Higher UV protection in water was not applicable in my situation, have not gone swimming with this- This product comes out thick, but does not necessarily go on as thick- No added fragrance but!: smells like what you think zinc would smell like, I personally enjoy it. Either way, not noticeable after application- Needs more effort and slight increased time to spread and blend to skin, not substantial thoughCons:- Can stain clothing (all tinted mineral sunscreens will stain unfortunately, so don't wear this with white clothing please!)- Hard to remove, but this is common with waterproof sunscreens. Face wash does not do the trick, needs either more physical rubbing or a makeup remover like Garnier (works perfectly)- Too shiny, not enough to be concerning but definitely noticeableI am a Pilot, and while I can't wear this sunscreen with any uniform as it will stain it, it works phenomenally with my general aviation flying. On hot summer days in Arizona where the sun is blasting and the airplane cabin is toasty, this sunscreen does not fail me despite all the sweating on my face and neck. Further more, I have never noticed any sun burns with this. The color of the tint is fantastic for my skin, and I think for others as well. It does not make you look like an oompa loompa (*ahem Waxhead ahem*), nor is the tone too cold. A universal blend. Although the perfect sunscreen can never exist, as everyone has their own needs and desires, I believe I have found the closest thing to a "golden sunscreen", and because of that - I will continue to use this indefinitely (or until a better one is found).Pictures -1: Bottle2: Hand before application3: Hand after 5 seconds of rubbing in(please ignore my lack-of-tan where my would-be watch is, my actual hand in the picture is my typical showing skin color)-------------TLDR: After 11 tinted sunscreens, this is my favorite one. Strongly recommended to purchase to give it a try. Very fair pricing, great sweat protection, healthy ingredients, strong UVA protection, low risk of skin allergic reaction. Will recommend to family and friends!----Edit: March 2024 -Hi everyone, after some research I found another sunscreen which will replace this one for my daily use. It's a European one called UVMune 400 by La Roche-Posay. It has the best chemical protection of the last 380-400nm wavelength (longest UVA, most contributive to wrinkles). But!!! That one is only a special order through an international website. So, while my new replacement can't be ordered from any US websites or Amazon, I will still continue to recommend this tinted sunscreen as your go to for a USA-made sunscreen.As the European one is quite pricey to import, I don't want to use it as much as I want. Therefore, I will still use this tinted one on my face for any sports/beach activities. Plus Zinc Oxide isn't harmful or absorbed either!

I live in the skin cancer capital of the world (Arizona) and this is the best sunscreen I have ever used! It has no scent, will not harm our lakes, streams or oceans and does not irritate my skin! I’ve used at least 20 other sunscreens and this is the best. Pricey, yes…but how important is YOUR skin health?

The sunscreen works great. The only reason I didn't give it five stars was that it took a great deal of rubbing to get it rubbed in. A little goes a long way.

Not chalky like a lot of zinc based sunscreens. Product is pretty well mixed in the tube. It does take some rubbing to get it onto dry skin but if your skin is hydrated or moisturized it's a breeze. My skin is sorta caramel brown and it doesn't leave a white cast except when I put it on my face while I was kinda dehydrated. Even then it wasn't the traditional white cast. It just looked a bit dry and ashy. No burns. No discomfort. No loud smells. (I'm sensitive to smells!) This is the best zinc oxide based sunscreen I've ever had. And no, I did not get any type of reward, prize or incentive for leaving this review. It was really hard for me to choose a product on Amazon, so im hoping this review will help someone else. I actually ordered two sunscreens from Amazon. The other brand was more expensive, but it left a strong white cast. I'll use that one on my son on swim days and use this for us everyday. I mean it is called "Every Day Mineral Sunscreen." But yeah, I'll be stocking up on this and using them year long. The pics are of me wearing it on my arms. You can't tell which arm has the sunscreen on it. Any discoloration that you may notice is not due to the product.

I have sensitive skin- prone to redness, rash, breakouts - but this product is gentle & hasn't caused me any problems! The mica sparkles are pretty & not over the top. It's a physical sunscreen that doesn't leave any white cast on my fair skin once I've rubbed it in. It seems to offer sun protection comparable to other products I've used, just remember to reapply every 2 hours. No sun burn when I've used it as directed. Non-greasy & lightweight too. My skin actually seems less dry now that I've been using it. Overall highly recommend this product & I'm so happy I found it.

A reef safe and skin safe sunscreen. It goes on thick and white and requires some rubbing in, but it does not leave your face feeling greasy.

A little goes a long way! I thought that I didn't buy enough for my 2 week trip to florida but man did I ever! Love this product and loved being able to say I was using something that I felt good about seeing the coral reef with. ❤️ With only 1% left of the coral reef, this meant more to me to be able to say I was conscious observer.

Awesome product! Love this brand.
