CoppertonePure and Simple Sunscreen Lotion, SPF 50 Broad Spectrum Sunscreen with Zinc Oxide, 6 Oz

Makes the water literally bead up in your body, you can tell it seals out necessary things!

It's works very well, happy with this product!

It works, no harmful ingredients like Oxybenzone and octinoxate in it. Threw away my old 5 yr old sunscreen it had these bad chemicals in it.

initially it feels "sticky" but with just a little more rubbing it smooths out. Feels dry once the moisture evaporates. Odorless. Leaves a slightly white film but nothing offensive.

I’m happy I decided on Coppertone Pure & Simple Zinc Oxide Sunscreen. The 6 ounce bottle is well worth the price as a little goes a long way. I always give the bottle a good shake before applying it. This was the first year I sought out all zinc oxide sunscreens. I wanted to avoid the bad ingredients in regular sunscreens I’ve used in the past. This is free of octinoxate & oxybenzone which are the 2 main bad ingredients in most sunscreens. This pure & simple sunscreen is free of PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid) which is an ingredient you should avoid in the interest of protecting your overall well-being. It’s also parabens, dye & fragrance free. I like the 50 SPF. I did some research on what it’s a good SPF to look for. This is what I learned: “SPF50 will last 2 hours in the sun. It should protect you 50 times as long as your skin would be able to naturally protect itself. However, remember that the lower the SPF and longer the length of time since application, the less UVB rays will be filtered so a reapplication every two hours is highly recommended.” Another great feature this sunscreen has is the active ingredient of zinc oxide is at 24.08%. I didn’t know what that meant so again I researched it. This is what I learned: “It’s recommended looking for a sunscreen label for a zinc oxide concentration of 20-25% for best protection from UVA and UVB rays.” So thumbs up on everything this Coppertone Pure & Simple sunscreen offers. Be careful as it comes out a little watery quickly but it rubs nicely onto my skin & is absorbed immediately. There’s no residue or white cast look to it period. Yesterday I worked outside for 5 hours. I took a couple breaks & did reapply after 2 hours. I didn’t burn period. This sunscreen kept my skin safe. I also decided to apply it to my face because I had it handy with me outside & my face sunscreen was in the house. This was lightweight on my face & didn’t irritate my sensitive skin. I feel it could easily be used as a facial sunscreen. So many positives I’ve found with this sunscreen! I most definitely recommend it!

I want to be more environmentally conscious. I am a Coppertone baby from the first time on the beach. This is the first time using the Zinc formula. I’m really disappointed. There is a gray white tint. It was difficult to rub in. It stinks, zinc I know. It’s hard to wash off. While being out all day in the sun at the beach it did its job. I will not repurchase this or the face stick.

This is the best hypoallergenic sunscreen out there. No chemicals, but still actually works! Would definitely recommend for the summertime

This works well and I love that it has natural ingredients, but it's horrible to try to wash off! I seriously had to scrub with soap and a washcloth for five minutes to get it off my skin! That has its pros and cons. It's great that it doesn't wash off in the swimming pool and you can put it on your kids and know it's safe and will likely stay put, but when you can't get it off your skin in the shower it's a little frustrating.
