ThinkSport Sunscreen 50 SPF 89ml (3oz) - Safer Zinc Oxide Mineral Formulation - Ideal for all Sport and Outdoor Pursuits - Non-Toxic Ingredients

I have searched great lengths for a reef safe sunscreen and I think this is a great option. I have recently used this sunscreen on my Italy trip and have not burnt at all. I find a little goes a long way which is good as it is an expensive product. Yes, this will absolutely give you a white cast as it is physical sunscreen, however I used this sunscreen on the beach every day, boat trips, snorkelling etc and tbh I didn't really care if it left me with a white cast as my main priority was protection from sun and that the sunscreen was reef safe. Would I use this as an every day sunscreen? No. But for a water activities, I think its brilliant and I will be re-purchasing for my next trips.

This is a non toxic, chemical free, reef safe sunscreen that contains zinc oxide as the active ingredient. For an even application you need to rub the cream in your hands to warm it up first. It will leave a white residue on your skin for about an hour until it sinks in. Therefore I use a different cream on my face, one with mixed minerals. But for my body, this is the best cream I have ever used.

Overview: This sunscreen is great in nearly all areas, but unfortunately falls short in one critical aspect for me, which is why I can't personally use it. As far as ingredients go, this sunscreen is excellent. It's a mineral only sunscreen and has no denatured alcohol, and the zinc particles are non-nano for those who don't like micronised zinc. I was extremely impressed that on my skin (Fitzpatrick Type 3), I don't get any white cast, and it only took me about 15 seconds to fully rub the cream in. However, I find the cream to be a bit sticky/greasy/shiny, which I personally don't mind as I have dry skin but might bother others. The one aspect that this sunscreen falls short in, is the fact that it has fragrance. It's fragranced with grapefruit oil, and has a light grapefruit scent, but unfortunately this irritates my sensitive eczema prone skin, so I can't use the product. However, even though I can't use it myself I've still given it 4 stars as that's a personal issue. The sunscreen itself definitely works, doesn't leave a white cast (for me, but deeper skin tones might get a white cast) and is very affordable, especially for mineral sunscreen. Summary: If you don't have sensitive skin/skin that reacts to fragrance, then buy this. If you do react to fragrance/essential oils then probably avoid it.

it protects you from the sun. Its a heavy paste that does need adequate time to apply. I didn’t get burnt whilst in 30 degree(c) heat in Belize while using this. I was on a diving trip and reapplied it often between getting in and out of the water. One thing was that if wet or if you dont have enough time to dry it will rub onto mask or whatever else it touches. It doesnt stain clothing and will wash off of rubber. It will like alot of things sting if it washes into eyes so be mindful if you’re plastering it on kids. I used two of these over the course of a week in the sun which for the amount of times i had to apply was reasonable. Buy this if you want to help oceans from the 16,000L of sulphate infused suncreams that wash into it each year.

I got this specifically because it's supposed to be reef safe and I was going to be in the vicinity of some, but I've gotten to hate using it because it's really hard to wash off.

I bought this for a trip to Mexico where temperatures were in the mid-30's for the most part and where I wanted to possibly wear it for activities in areas where chemical based sunblocks are not allowed. I have a Mediterranean skin tone so wouldn't burn as easily as someone with fairer skin but the sun burns everyone if you stand under it unprotected. Wearing this I didn't burn despite out in the high temperatures and felt it gave really good protection. You really have to rub it into your skin because it can leave a white sheen, so maybe have a person or a mirror around to tell you what it looks like, so those with darker skin might have reservations with how it looks on them. I had no issue with the smell, either.

I burn really easily and was very impressed with this cream. It’s very thick but works really well even when swimming. No unpleasant smell or marks. I used one tube in 1 week. Will definitely be using it again

I bought this to go scuba diving in Mexico with as it was safer for coral reefs. Unfortunately the weather was really bad so I didn't need sun-cream in the end. Instead I used it during summer in the UK. It was a complete disaster. My boyfriend applied it to his hair and forehead, and a hour or so later, it began to drip into eyes because of sweat and he experienced really bad eye irritation. His eyes were red and stinging. I thought this was very water resistant and designed for athletes, so very surprised how easily it was removed with sweat. We also both got sun-burnt despite using this. I may as well have not been wearing any sun-cream at all! I am usually quite careful in the sun as I have fair skin, and it is the first time in quite a while a sun-cream has let me down so badly! I would not recommend this product at all, especially not for sports or scuba diving, if it is so easily removed by sweat, and causes such irritation to the eyes. I also found it slightly itchy on the skin. I just regret buying 2 as I am going to have to throw both away.

È una ottima marca che consente di proteggersi con un filtro solare fisico e si stende bene sul corpo

Aguanta un buen rato en el agua y no da grasa. Tampoco te deja la cara muy blanca. La volveré a comprar

Good product

Vivo cerca de la playa y me encanta pasar los fines de semana dentro del agua haciendo wakeboard o kiteboard, por lo mismo pongo mucha atención a los bloqueadores que uso. Antes utilizaba uno de Neutrogena pero a raíz del escándalo con la toxicidad de los bloqueadores decidí buscar uno más amigable con el cuerpo y encontré este que me encanto. Lo bueno: -Viene sellado. Para usarlo hay que quitarle el tapón y sacar un sello de papel aluminio que viene detrás del mismo. Esto te asegura que el bloqueador no ha reaccionado con el oxigeno o humedad del ambiente mientras estaba guardado antes de que lo compraras. -Es muy adherente. Toma más trabajo aplicarlo que otros bloqueadores pero es algo bueno ya que por lo mismo también es difícil que se caiga. -Resistente al agua. Por lo mismo de su adherencia repele muy bien el agua, no se lava fácilmente. Incluso lavarse las manos después de aplicarlo es un poco batalloso, (necesitarás una toalla, no se cae solo frotándolo con agua). -Buena protección UV. Lo use todo el fin de semana y sentí que funcionó tan bien como los mejores bloqueadores que haya usado antes. De hecho por su consistencia desde que te lo pones sientes que va a trabajar bien. -No es brilloso, se absorbe bien, aunque si se nota que lo traes puesto. Lo malo: -Se hace notar. A menos que tengas una piel muy blanca se va a notar que traes puesto algo encima, no lo recomendaría para el uso diario pero es excelente para realizar deportes o actividades en el sol. -El tamaño. Thinksport tiene una presentación de 6 onzas, ojalá este disponible próximamente en Amazon.

Me gusto
