Babo BotanicalsDaily Sheer Tinted Mineral Sunscreen Fluid SPF50 - Natural Zinc Oxide - Passion Fruit Oil - Golden-Hued Tint - Fragrance Free - Ultra-Lightweight - For Face - For all agesEWG Verified

Favorite daily face sunscreen with a tint for the slightest bit of coverage. Love the non-toxic ingredients.

This product caused terrible swelling, puffiness, redness, itching, burning, hives. I had to stay home from work and skip the gym on multiple occasions it was so bad. I didn't realize it was this product causing my reaction because every time I applied it, the reaction was delayed by about 2 days and lasted about 2 weeks. This went on for a couple months, I had to go to the dermatologist, eliminate all skincare products. I thought for sure it wasn't this product because it's "crunchy" or whatever, but finally on a whim I did a patch test on my arm and sure enough 2 days later my arm was visibly irritated and was itchy for a solid 2 weeks. I wrote a review on the company's webpage and it was never posted... and they told me I needed to contact Amazon for a refund (although this whole process took 6 months). I would steer clear of this company, or at the very least make sure you're doing a patch test before putting it on your face.

I have been searching FOREVER for a clean sunscreen that would work for my light medium skin tone & literally nothing would work...until I found this gem! I tried chemical sunscreens to avoid white-cast, but I just hated the non-clean ingredients when it came to those & then I started breaking out from them, so I KNEW I needed a mineral sunscreen. I tried TONS of mineral sunscreens, & there was not a single one that left me with no white-cast, no matter what I did or how I applied it. Then, I tried looking into tinted mineral sunscreens because I knew I had to get tinted options to avoid the white-cast. The issue that came with that was how weird it looked with my skin tone. For example, I tried Australian Gold, but it felt sooo dry & matte on my skin (I have dry skin) & the biggest issue was how orange & darker than my regular skin tone I looked with it. FINALLYYY I found this brand & the first thing I loved was how CLEAN the ingredients are! I am HUGE on making sure my products I consume & apply are non-toxic, so that was a huge pro. On top of that, this shade is AMAZING it did not change my original skin tone at all & it looks like I'm not wearing sunscreen (in the best way possible aka it has ZERO white-case whatsoever!!!) this is such a big deal for me & I AM SO HAPPY I FINALLY FOUND A PRODUCT THAT WORKS FOR ME <3 I saw lots of reviews saying it broke them out, but, fortunately, I am not allergic to gluten, so I am fine, but if you have a gluten allergy, this won't work for you because of the wheat germ oil in the ingredients. All the oils don't affect me too much because I have drier skin, so it actually really helps, but I will edit my review if I notice any breakouts from this. The liquid texture is nice, but I am weary of if the liquid texture gives me proper sun protection, so I apply 3 finger-lengths, instead of the recommended 2 finger lengths, which means more product needed on a daily basis, which makes this quite pricey because it is smaller than I thought it would be. I would not change the texture, though, because it just feels better than the matte/lotiony sunscreens in my opinion, but I just hope it could be bigger or a bit cheaper, but I appreciate this brand so much for being so clean & great for my skin, so I am okay with paying for how good quality this is! I AM A SUPER HAPPY CUSTOMER :)

I’m surprised by all the reviews that say this sunscreen has a greasy finish. I’ve been looking for years for a face sunscreen that’s not greasy, and this particular Babo product is it. Maybe a slightly dewy finish but definitely not shiny or greasy like most moisturizing sunscreens—and I use this after applying a moisturizer. I wondered it the shade would be too dark for me and it is. I can wear it but it’s not ideal. On the plus side, it blends easily, is very sheer, and there’s no white cast, even with the high zinc content. I also have very sensitive skin and I’ve had no allergic reactions. The bottle doesn’t drip or leak, making it easy to apply anywhere, even in the car. It dries quickly so I don’t leave sunscreen fingerprints on everything. I haven’t had an opportunity to test it by spending time outside on a full-sun day but I get pink after 5 minutes on cloudy days and this product has protected me so far. I’ve been happy with the SPF performance of other Babo products so I’m hoping for the best. The EWG verification is rare for sunscreens and that’s a definite plus. .

I've always used a LaRoche sunscreen that is both pricey and chemical-laden (even the zinc option), but I liked how sheer and lightweight it was. I finally decided to do an EWG search for a clean sunscreen, and found that Babo, a brand I rely on for my children's sunscreen, also makes sunscreen options for adults. I purchased this Babo Botanicals Daily Sheer Tinted Mineral Sunscreen for its zinc properties and light tint. So far I've been very impressed; it's extremely easy to apply and blend, and it doesn't settle into creases or leave a greasy finish. The tint is VERY light on my skin; I'm a full makeup girly and I would not consider this comparable to a foundation; it's definitely more like a skin tint. I love that it is compositionally cleaner than my previous sunscreens, and also more affordable! It doesn't have a strong scent and I love that it leaves a dry finish so you don't feel like you're applying makeup to an oil slick. I will definitely keep using and recommend for anyone looking to avoid applying common icky chemicals onto your largest and most absorbent organ.
