I ordered this sunscreen because I saw people online talk about how it is rather good for those with sensitive skin and/or eczema, which I have. I really needed a eczema friendly sunscreen because I have PIH from scratching my upper body and other sunscreens I tried irritated or burned my patches. However, I was a bit skeptical since there were reviews saying things like there were "bad batches" or it's "just water" not sunscreen. The directions explicitly state to "shake well before use", so I did that the first couple days I used the sunscreen and it came out as a thick white sunscreen. However, I forgot to do it one day and noticed it was, as other reviews had mentioned, like water. After a few shakes, it was back to its normal consistency. Please learn to read what's printed on packaging and sunscreen before leaving a hasty bad review and returning the product. Besides that, this sunscreen does what it's supposed to and does not bother my eczema at all. I think that putting it on top of my moisturizing routine locks everything in and my skin tends to remain hydrated, getting significantly less itchy and dry throughout the day compared to before (when I didn't use a sunscreen). I have to agree with the reviews that say it is a thick formula, which makes it harder to spread around though doable. Also, it leaves a crazy white cast, so I wouldn't recommend this for your face, only on your body. I don't mind the white cast because I have PIH areas and it lightens them a bit.

This is one of the few sunscreens that I would wear here in the southern sun. Have never gotten a painful sun burn when wearing this particular brand of Vanicream sunscreen, nor I have not had any skin reactions to this sunscreen. It does not clog my pores and claims that it does not contain oxybenzone or octinoxate. The only inconvenience for me is that it takes some constant rubbing of the lotion on your skin for the whiteness of the cream to be absorbed into my skin. Definitely on the top of my "must list" for beach items.

Finally, a sunscreen that works for my sensitive skin. I have both a fragrance and compositae mix allergy, so it’s hard to find something that doesn’t have either fragrance or some plant extract. Skincare companies will remove fragrance and then frustratingly turn around and add botanicals.My docs recommended Vanicream products such as cleanser & moisturizer, which I really enjoy. I tried the other mineral sunscreen Vamicream offers, not sure if it’s 35 SPF or just a different formulation of this same spf 50 one but it didn’t work for me. It was hard to blend in to skin and major white cast. I didn’t use it after a couple of trys. I’ve been using Elta MD but that’s pricey for 1.7 oz and with sensitive skin my derm recommended mineral SPF.This Vanicream SPF 50 is wonderful. I’m Latinx so I’m sort of medium to tan and this sunscreen blends beautifully. There’s just a hint of a cast buy after a few minutes the cast is gone. It takes a little longer to dry off or sink in but that’s ok because I’m just kind of glowy, this is NOT tacky. One thing to keep in mind though is that this has a lot of allantoin which is super moisturizing, so if you have slightly dryer skin like me, this will be great. I don’t know how oily skin will do with it.Th texture of this is lovely, it feels great on my skin and I love the SPF 50. For the price, this cannot be beat, my new go to!
