Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 Lotion, 3 oz Twin pack

I love that this is rated a zero in the think dirty app. I have had skin cancer so I have to be careful about the sun and also the chemicals that go onto my skin and into my body. I can trust this brand. The label is pretty and appealing. This is a non greasy sun screen, which I personally love. I hate being greasy. It's very lightweight and stays on and in place. It's definitely more thick than other sun screens, but easily rubs in and doesn't leave your skin white. I originally purchased a two pack on their actual website and got a better deal that way (running a deal at the time). I feel like the price is a bit too much for a single bottle for the size, however, this does that job with no chemicals and that to me matters the most. I keep one in the diaper bag for on the go. I will purchasing from this honest company again when needed.

I appreciate a sunscreen that is organic, and reefsafe, I use this everyday. I have used Two Peas products for years now. Nothing compares to this sunscreen, as it actually works. Thankyou please keep making this product.

Its very heavy and thick. I had to take the cover off because it would not go through the tube. That being said, a little goes a loonnggg way. I squeezed out a quarter size and it was too much for both my arms. It is very hard to spread, not like a lotion, a very thick paste. I'm guessing due to it's natural ingredients. However, it gave me perfect protection. I was out in the sun for about 3 hours and it worked great. Once it soaks into your skin it's not greasy and was very moisturizing. Use sparingly. I was hesitant on the price for such a small amount, but this will definitely last awhile.

Really good sunscreen. I searched high and low for sunscreen for my sensitive skin. Looking for sunscreen that is chemical free without alcohol (hello dry skin here too) is a super hard task. I even looked at some korean brands after hearing about their products being superior to american sunscreen. This is light enough to even wear under make up, super moisturizing, and it doesn't bleed into your eyes when you're in the pool! A little hard to apply but that's the nature of chemical free sunscreen. Sometimes I finish with a microfiber cloth and notice it helps rub in the product. I spent a few hours at the pool with this on didn't need to reapply and didn't get burned! Will use this as my daily sunscreen its that good and will continue to buy!!

Over the last few years I've been trying to research products to get ones that are healthier, that don't have things like endocrine disruptors (parabens, phtalates, plastics, etc.), heavy metals (aluminum, lead, mercury, etc.), fluoride, pesticides and herbicides (Round-up contaminates almost all wheat products because it's used as a desiccant). My family was planning a cruise vacation to Roatan, Honduras, Costa Maya, Mexico, and Cozumel, Mexico, so I started doing some research on sunscreen. A lot of the standard sunscreens work because the chemicals they use for protection against UV rays are endocrine disruptors, meaning they mess with your hormones. The prevalent use of these chemicals (mostly plastics) has been lowering men's testosterone every year for decades, and has really bad side effects for both men and women. So, I found this sunscreen and a few others like it that would be perfect for me, that use non-nano Zinc Oxide as protection against UV rays, and don't have the other bad stuff. It's also supposed to be coral reef safe since the particles of Zinc Oxide are larger and can't be absorbed into the reef. My older brother, older sister, and I were planning (and went) snorkeling on Roatan to look at the reef and fish (amazing by the way). If it worked, this product and one other we used would've been perfect and gotten 5 stars. But, they don't work. After snorkeling I got a really bad blistering sunburn over my entire back, upper arms, lower legs, and forehead. The picture I posted doesn't do it justice, I was much brighter red than the picture shows, and it was taken before the really large blisters started to form. We were outside for about 4 hours. Everyone that used this sunscreen got sunburned, including my older sister, younger sister, and her boyfriend, the latter 2 were elsewhere on the island and didn't go swimming. We all applied it multiple times; my younger sister applied it 6 times and still got burned. I've worked outside a lot. I know that I burn once, and then tan afterward, so I'm not really susceptible to bad burns like pale redheads. Honestly, for myself, I could have applied it more, and applied more of it, but the fact that both my sisters applied it more frequently and with more of it each time, and still got burned, indicates that what this product uses doesn't work as a sunscreen. I wish it was because otherwise the product is great. It smells great and seemed to stay on even in the water for a while. It was a bit difficult to rub in and when using a lot you get a white like coating. I can't seem to find any other alternative between Zinc Oxide sunscreens and the more normal ones with the bad chemicals in them. Given how bad the sunburns were for my family, we all agreed that it would be better to use the normal sunscreens than to get burned that badly again.

I found this to be a decent sunscreen, as effective as other sunscreens I tried this summer. I really like the ingredients -- it rates at a 1 on EWG's harmful ingredients scale. Unfortunately I just didn't like the consistency. It is extremely thick. Takes more effort to squeeze out of the tube, and squeezes out in little sunscreen snakes that hold their shape until you smear them. And I did massage the tube like the sticker advises. Most mineral sunscreens will leave the skin looking a little pale, but of the 3 mineral sunscreens I tried out this summer, this one left my skin the most pasty looking. I found that it worked fine as a sunscreen, but I liked the Babo Botanicals and BurnOut sunscreens that I tried better than this one.

VERY pleased and excited to have found a natural sunscreen for my babies!! I did a lot of searching for a chemical free, natural sunscreen and was so pleased to find this one. You can actually understand what the ingredients are and could almost make it yourself if you had the recipe! It has no PABA, parabens, phthalates, BPA, oxybenzone, avobenzone, petrolatum, or 1,4-dioxane. And it's broad spectrum UVA/UVB with an SPF of 30, water resistant for 80 minutes. For a 3 oz tube, it's expensive but for me it's well worth the price to have a natural sunscreen that's safe for my babies, which is very important to me. FULL LIST OF INGREDIENTS Active Ingredient: Zinc Oxide 20% Inactive Ingredients: Ricinus Communis (Castor) Oil*, Beeswax*, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil*, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil*, Simmondsia Chinesis (Jojoba) Oil*, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter*, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil*, Tocopherol (Vitamin E) *Certified Organic

Two Peas Organics Mineral Sunscreen is certified organic, free of the chemicals found in many other brands of sunscreen. It also uses organically sourced ingredients which makes it better for the environment than many competitors. This is marketed as suitable for even babies sensitive skin as it is chemical free. Upon use I found that it has a pleasant scent (fragrance free but the zinc has a light scent anyway which I did not mind). It is somewhat thick but spreads easily and was non greasy. The tube lists all the ingredients, also lists appropriate measures to remain safe in the sun which is a nice addition to the packaging. I haven’t had an opportunity to try this out in the real sun just yet but am looking forward to the opportunity. For those that say that they got burned using it I will point out that it is only SPF 30 so reapplication and further sun protection measures are key with an SPF 30 product. I would likely use this on an average summer day for sun protection but if I were planning a long day in the sun of boating or water activities I may look for a product with a higher SPF. Hopefully in the future Two Peas Organics will produce higher SPF so I can continue with this brand! Pros: spreads easily, non greasy, smells good, organic, no chemicals, good for sensitive skin, environmentally conscious and health conscious company. Cons: smallish tube - not for full body use all summer, doesn’t come in higher SPF than 30.
