Thinksport Spray Sunscreen, All Sheer SPF 50 Zinc Oxide Mineral Sunscreen, 6 Fl Oz, Natural, Water Resistant, Reef Safe, Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB Sun Block for Sun Protection, Vegan

It does apply thick and need to be rubbed in, but protected me well from the sun

Leaves white residue on skin- can’t get it off but protects you from the sun for sure.

This works great, It's a little pasty and takes a bit of rubbing to get it worked in but I tell you what I didn't have any burn in Hawaii with no previous sun. Works great and I would trust it on a small child

Actually the worst sun screen ever. Super chalky, doesn’t run in at all. You could put on a ton and still get burnt like a lobster and the kicker? It stains any clothes you were. I have a bathing suit that is trashed because of all of the spots of sunscreen that will not wash out. Don’t buy this product. Try other reef safe brands, that’s what I’m doing.

I will start by saying that I am used to traditional non-mineral sunscreens and tend to only buy physical/mineral-based sunscreens when I'm going to be in a tropical ocean and need something reef-safe, though more and more kids sunscreens are shifting to mineral-based. After quite a bit of research I settled on ThinkSport for my family's recent trip to Hawaii, and I'm very pleased with it. I brought and used three types of Thinksport sunscreen: Thinksport Kids lotion (yellow/orange and teal squeeze bottle), Thinksport adult lotion (Black, white, and orange squeeze bottle), and Thinksport adult spray (black, white and orange spray bottle). All protected us from sunburn and rubbed in to be invisible as long as skin was dry and free of visible hair (visible whiteness persisted around my husbands facial stubble and chest hair). The only difference between the kids lotion versus the adult lotion is scent--the kids version has a fruitier, more tropical but not-too-strong scent (possibly coconut and something else? it was hard to identify) that I found unobjectionable (though one if my kids wasn't a fan), and the adult lotion had a lighter, less sweet, more citrus-y scent (my son though maybe lime and mint, but I'm not sure that's accurate) that I LOVE. The adult spray had no discernible scent, so I suspect the kids spray might be fairly unscented as well. The easiest to apply by far was the spray--it sprays on white, but feels very light, rubs in easily, and becomes invisible quickly. I was a little worried about whether it could possibly be effective given how light and thin it felt, but it was! The lotions weren't thick for a lotion (but much thicker than the spray) and went on easily, but took more rubbing in to disappear than the spray (this is consistent with my experience with lotion vs spray in traditional sunscreens as well). Invisibility was harder to get after a second or third application or when skin was damp, but all-in-all I found all three Thinksport products to be superior to other mineral-based sunscreens I have tried in the past. In the future I'll probably buy the adult thinksport spray for my kids and husband (who all much prefer a spray-on sunscreen) and the adult thinksport lotion for myself (because I love the scent and don't mind rubbing it in).

While the product worked great unfortunately it left a white residue that was hard to rub in. I know this is common with mineral sunscreen I was just hoping this one would be a little better.

Love that it’s nontoxic and does the job! Only negative is how much of a white cast it leaves

Works great as a sunscreen and chose it because it’s reef safe BUT it gets on everything. Don’t go anywhere near black or dark fabric ie black swimsuit, cover up, hat, etc. and it doesn’t easily wipe off. Washes off in the laundry though.
