Waxhead Tinted Sunscreen Paste - Tinted Zinc Oxide Sunscreen, Eco Friendly Sunscreen, Sunscreen Reef Safe, Organic Sunscreen for Face, Hawaii Sunscreen, Surfing Sunscreen (SPF 30, 2oz, Tinted)

Waxhead tinted zinc oxide protects my face, ears, hands and any other tender areas from overexposure to sun. It doesn’t come off with perspiration. It doesn’t cause pore blockages. The tinted color blends well with my skin type. It is easier to apply if it’s warmed or if you rub your finger over it rapidly to create friction warmth. It lasts a long time on your skin and doesn’t need frequent reapplying.

I found this while looking for a sunblock that might actually last in the pool, bc even with setting timers to reapply our usual sunblock, my kids were getting sunburned (they’re in the water for hours at a time). We’ve been using this for a week and it works great- no burns since we switched to this! Cons: 1) It’s a little tough to apply, but I suspect that’s why it stays on so well. I use it on smaller areas that are most likely to burn- faces, ears, and hands; then we wear rash guards for sun protection for rest the upper body. I use a different mineral sunscreen that’s more spreadable for legs and anything else bc I just can’t deal with spreading this on large areas of the body. 2) I bought the tinted version because it shipped faster, but I would only buy the clear one going forward. The tinted one stains anything light colored. My husband threw the stained items in the wash without treating first so it’s probably not fixable now, if they’d been pretreated with something that breaks up oil maybe it would have been ok.

Great product… hard to take out though 😎

This stuff is the best. I’ve tried pretty much everything. No weird ingredients to worry about, stays on for hours, smells good, spreads easily if you’re in a warm climate or put it in your pocket beforehand. Like all zinc sunblock, it’ll get in your clothing or gear if you touch it after application. Don’t touch it, problem solved.

The product looked good, but I gave it away to a neighbor because I am a strict ethical vegan who eschews use of all animal- derived or animal-tested products, and the product contains beeswax, an ingredients about which I was unaware at the time of purchase. It was a disappointment as I would have liked to have used it myself.
