Waxhead Tinted Zinc Oxide Sunscreen Stick for Face SPF 30, Jumbo 3.7 oz

This is the second time I've purchased Waxhead Tinted Sport Sunscreen and I absolutely LOVE it! It stays on my skin in the ocean, even for longer surf sessions (through sweat, salty water, and sand), is reef safe, and has skin healthy ingredients. I love that it's slightly tinted with a matte finish (versus some zinc oxide sunblocks that make your skin white/bluish and so shiny), and has a nice, subtle cocoa scent (from the cocoa powder). This sunscreen lasts a long time and is a great value for the price. I've also purchased their untinted sport stick and it's great too, but I prefer this one. I reached out to their customer service when I had a question about expiration dates, and the reply was very quick!

Regarding function, this is a high-quality sunscreen that does not sting your eyes or come off while surfing. However, the tint is gray rather than any skin tone I have ever seen on a living human being. I did not remove any stars for that because the quality is superior to many other brands on the market.

Pale skinned and no base tan. Used this near the equator for a week. Absolutely did not burn. Phenomenal product. Smells great and doesn’t irritate my son’s extremely sensitive skin.

This sunscreen is effective and smells like cocoa! Not a bad thing at all. The tinting helps hide the zinc caste and also serves as good indicator of coverage. The only negative is that it is thick and can be hard to spread if it's cold. Warming it in the sun before use helps. The ingredients are simple and my skin tolerates it much better than chemical sunscreens. Washing off takes a bit of scrubbing, but that's expected for any water-resistant sunscreen.

Fantastic, natural, love the peace of mind knowing that I could accidentally ingest some of this product without harm. I’ve used this surfing multiple 3 hour sessions in the most extreme summer SoCal UV with perfect protection, without reapplication. And yes, it will make your face a bit white but it can be easily removed after. Just wish this product was available back in the day. The only sunblock I trust for kids, and the stick lasts forever. Can get a bit gooey in a hot car, just keep it in a plastic bag. Money well spent.

I love the texture & function of this but the smell was hard to get past. It’s supposed to be vanilla but had an almost sour smell to it. I have tried both the tinted and I tinted and they have the same smell. The spf is very effective & did not irritate my skin though.

I have had some issues with my lips burning. Spent a week at the beach putting this on my lips and it worked perfect. No burn on my lips.

I'm someone who has been allergic to every chemical sunscreen I've ever tried. I'm fine with scented lotions and perfumes, but sunscreen makes me swell up. Some mineral sunscreens that have a ridiculous amount of unnecessary ingredients have also made me react. so honestly I was afraid to go outside for a long time without covering myself up completely. And I was extremely nervous every time I would try a new sunscreen. I know for sure octocrylene and oxybenzone and a few other ingredients make me react, but I've reacted to sunscreens without those ingredients and so I I haven't been able to figure out everything that I'm allergic to and it scares me when it's my skin and my face at risk of swelling flaking cracking and peeling. This year I found this waxhead sunscreen. It's literally got four ingredients in it I'll dab it on as a base before makeup and you can't even see it Even if I don't wear makeup it spreads really easily my skin and it doesn't leave white streaks I'm an avid hiker and I've been able to hike in the sun all day without having allergic reaction, having to cover up, and without getting any sunburn. It's a reef safe which I love as I'm also a scuba diver It's moisturizing because of its coconut oil And it advertises that it is very water-resistant up to 80 minutes Seriously four ingredients Mineral sunscreen SPF 30 broad spectrum Moisturizing Reef safe Perfect for sensitive skin or skin that mysteriously reacts to God knows what
