This sunscreen is great for the body: high protection, minimal cast, water resistant, easy to blend and extremely comfortable to wear, without that sticky gross feeling I associate with 50 PA++++ body sunscreens that are water resistant. It did a great job protecting me during my trip to south Thailand, and even with reapplying every 2 hours, one tube lasted me pretty well for one week. That being said, I will not repurchase until they come out with a fragrance-free version, because the perfume in this, while not overwhelming, was still not pleasant or necessary.

best chemical (or organic in the chemical sens) sunscreen I have ever used. PROS: light easy to apply doesn't leave any white film light scent that goes away quickly cheap doesn't sting doesn't irritate my rosacea CONS: not readily available in most countries but not that hard to buy online

This didn't work for my skin--it dried it out which made my face produce more oil, and seemed to leave a filmy residue on my skin which actually clogged my pores and created more pimples! It smells nice and clean, and the squeeze tube it comes in is convenient, but that's about all I can recommend. I was also stumped by the scrubbing beads--they're tiny pieces of plastic that don't disintegrate which don't actually create much friction for scrubbing the skin, and they seem pretty terrible for the environment if they don't dissolve.
