Thrive Reef Safe Sunscreen SPF50 - Hawaii 104 Reef Act Compliant - Mineral Sunscreen Non-Nano Zinc Oxide - Vegan, (5.8 Oz (Pack of 1))

I really wanted to love this product but it dried out my skin. A few days after I began using it I noticed my the skin on my arms was tight and itchy. I thought perhaps it was a change of weather that might have caused the sudden dryness but it continued. I stopped using the sunscreen and my skin has returned to normal. It's a pity because this is a pricey sunscreen with good ingredients. I'll finish using it along with extra body oil or moisturiser but won't buy it again.

The best. I dont regret buying it!!! I did my research on not just REEF safe but OCEAN safe sunscreen and decided to go with this one (Thrive) We used it at the beach, and my kids who normally burn really bad, did not burn and if they did it was very minimal in small spots... I did make sure to reapply after a couple hours. I used this tube on 7 people for 2-3 days at the beach and I still have enough for more trips out. Probably about half a tube? It does go on white but you can rub it in and it disappears. Might feel a tad bit greasy but rub it in good and dry your hands off and you will be fine!! It goes away. I hated spending so much money on the tube at first but now I see how good and safe it is, it will be my go too! It worked better than blue lizard too. I tried blue lizard on certain spots and I burned in those spots!!! Its safer than sun bum (sun bum is not really reef safe as it says so.. they lied- used to be my go to before discovering Thrive and researching ingredients) def try this, you wont regret it. Just make sure to reapply as needed like any other sunscreen. Thank you Thrive for making a safe sunscreen that I can trust in our Oceans, on my family and that works!!! I do hope that you can reduce your price some... but great quality product!

Love this stuff!!!! Feels great on your skin, not oily, smells like citrus, is my daily go to! Kept me nice and pale at the beach and snorkeling.

I absolutely love this sunscreen! It provides strong SPF 50 protection without any harsh chemicals, which gives me peace of mind knowing my skin and the ocean are both safe. The formula is mineral-based, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave that greasy or sticky feeling so common with other sunscreens. I can wear it all day while hiking, swimming, or just lounging outdoors, and it never irritates my skin. I also appreciate that it’s reef-safe and Hawaii 104 compliant — it feels great to use a product that’s effective for me and responsible for the environment. The texture is smooth and easy to apply, and it doesn’t leave a white cast like some mineral sunscreens. Overall, it’s a high-quality, thoughtful sunscreen that I’ll definitely be buying again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for safe, effective sun protection!

Love this sunscreen. No stinging in my eyes. Covers very, very well. No smell/fragrance for those of us with allergies. Just feels really good on my skin. I've been telling my family to purchase this sunscreen.

This sunscreen offers good protection to the user and promises better protection for reefs. It does leave a heavy white film that can leaves one looking like a poorly made up Kabuki dancer. The effect eases over time, but does not completely disappear.
