Bare RepublicMineral Gel Sunscreen SPF 30 Sunblock Body Lotion, Light and Hydrating Skin Care, 4 Fl Oz

This sunscreen is awesome. I love the texture. The label says it's a gel-lotion and this is spot on. Sunscreen is so often too think, leaves a white cast, or smells weird. This one rubs on like gel with a slight lotion feel, and doesn't make my skin feel greasy. Every sunscreen I've used, as well as most body lotions, make my tattoos itch like crazy. This is the first one that works for sensitive skin and doesn't make me itch. Their matte face sunscreen also dries me out (I do love the feel and ease of use) and my skin is normal for this body sunscreen. Definitely recommend.

Excellent quality, protects skin, but leaves white residue on skin

Easiest of the mineral screens I tried to apply. Quick to dry but stays spreadable long enough to do an arm or leg at one go or two goes. Came home from hiking in Hawaii without sun burn, so it holds up against sun and sweat. Is not overly or unpleasantly scented. I did look even paler than normal, but it was just "been indoors a lot" pale not as creepy as some zinc screens.Not as nice as unseen sunscreen, but much cheaper, reef safe-ish, and nice enough my partner with sensory issues will use it without whingeing.

I am always trying mineral based sunscreens but they tended to stiffen up over time and became very difficult to spread out. This has the perfect creaminess, and stays that way in the tube. The scent is fairly light, though if it smelled less I would like that more because . Well why attract insects? Drys on and seems to do the job. Not impossible to wash off in a shower like some of the thick mineral versions I had tried.Tube stays nice and pliable for getting out the sunscreen when it's getting down there. Nice product.

I was looking forward to this sunscreen to use on my hands when I drive. However, the sunscreen kept peeling when I rubbed it and it was just a really bad formula.

in short, it’s relatively ok considering the price and volume. it does dry pretty fast which leads to pilling, but i found out that if you rub in some lotion or water the pilling goes away. but it doesn’t pill when it’s applied to the body like the arms or legs, for example. it also leaves a slight white cast since it is a mineral sunscreen.

In prepping for vacation we found the USVI’s has banned the use of chemical sunscreens containing reef damaging ingredients and researched alternatives. I’d tried many in the past and read about Bare Minerals on several travel forums. This works great, doesn’t leave the skin looking ghost white. I liked how the gel lotion rubbed into my skin well and isn’t harmful to the ocean! I’ll buy again.

I really like Bare Republic bc it is great for sensitive skin. I’m not fair so, 30 spf works for me. Just rub it in and the white tone gets absorbed. Like it for running and hiking. Like the cream when doing water sports or will get really sweaty bc it seems to do better
