Coppertone Sport Mineral Face Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 | Zinc Oxide Mineral Sunscreen | 2.5oz

The media could not be loaded. This is a second purchase for me. This is a mineral sunscreen (zinc oxide 24.08%) so there is a slight white cast, not a big deal if you are pale to medium toned. If you have a deeper skin color, you might not like this because of the slight white cast. This is actually for my husband who has very white/reddish skin and oily. He says this sunscreen “sticks” in a very nice way to his skin but leaves it “dry” and holds up very good in sweaty conditions. It’s a bit on the “thicker” side. Minimal to no burn to the eyes. Overall great sunscreen specially for outdoors/wet conditions. If you’re going to be inside or not sweating, the Nivea sun gel spf50 is a better option, since it’s a chemical sunscreen and very lightweight.

Works.

This was a bit surprising at first. The cream is pretty amazing and did a great job protecting my face. And super awesome that it did NOT run into my eyes!!! Great stuff for sure!!!!!

I bought because I was hoping for a mineral sunscreen that wouldn’t cause breakouts. So far it has not! It does turn your skin rather white, but not as bad as some mineral sunscreens I’ve tried. It is also very water resistant at least to sweat (haven’t swam in it). Have to use soap to remove. Minimal smell. It will burn your eyes if it gets in, but doesn’t run so unless you rub it in that shouldn’t happen.

My face & neck, where I applied this, was the only place I didn't burn & I never even re-applied it all day. Whereas a spray I re-applied everywhere else several times during the day did not prevent the tops of my feet from burning. So, this is very affective, it works well.However, it goes on very thick & needs to be worked in so as not to leave you looking white, and although it is oil free, after the white look is gone it made my face look greasy. Water Babies is easier to apply.

CAUTION: I know the review should be about the product, but with something as critical as sunscreen, expiration date matters. I recd on 6/21/24, but it expired in Jan 2024. Packaging is the new version, so the expiration date makes no sense.Also something to note: there is no safety seal on this product. A no-spill tape was applied prior to shipping, but there's nothing applied by the manufacturer. Not exactly the safest thing in this day & age of product tampering.

Have used this several times while diving in Bonaire and it never disappoints! It goes on smoothly and is never greasy. Great if you want to avoid a sunburned face!

Three stars due to suspected branding hijinks. Actually sunscreen works great and never runs. Leaves a white cast but after 15-20 minutes the cast reduces significantly. Doesnt bother me as this is for active/sport use, not daily life.The 3-star rating is due to my suspicion that they are playing branding games. I bought the regular mineral sunscreen and the “Face” version. Ingredients, consistency, and feel are identical. I believe the face version is exactly the same as the regular version, just jacked up in price. Save your money and skip the “face” branding.
