User questions & answers

Question:	is it greasy and shiny
Answer:	We did not find it greasy and shiny but it is thicker than normal lotion. We used it for 10 days in Costa Rica and it worked very well in protecting us from sunburns.
Question:	Does this for uva and uvb? It only says uva
Answer:	Yes, it blocks both. The tube says both UVA and UVB. It also says broad spectrum, zinc-based sun screens are a physical sunscreen which is usually always UVA and UVB.
Question:	Is this water resistant or waterproof
Answer:	The FDA no longer permits sunscreen manufacturers to label their products as "waterproof," as they say nothing is truly waterproof. These rules have been in place since 2011. https://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm239463.htm
Question:	Can this be worn under makeup without making you look white like a ghost
Answer:	It's making you white like any 50 and more spf cream. But I put a little bit on my face and waiting 10 minutes. When it is well absorbed, I put a napkin on my face and walk along it with my hands, remove napkin from my face and then apply make-up. It turns out a very good protection from the sun and the face is not like a ghost.

User questions & answers

Question:	How does it hold up in the heat? Will it get watery
Answer:	I've used it in Hawaii at 80 degrees F and never had any issues with it getting watery. It has held up well.
Question:	Is this Non-nano
Answer:	I’m not sure because of the homosalate at 10%. I think homosalate at 15% is a possible skin irritant. I have never had a problem with this sunscreen though, never burned or had skin irritations. I tend to have very sensitive skin. Hope this helped!
Question:	would you recommend this for facial use on sensitive or acne-prone skin? thanks
Answer:	Yes. SunBum is reasonably non-greasy. We used it on our faces while we were in Jamaica fo 11 days. It never bothered our skin, yet it prevented us from burning the entire time. We applied it twice a day, faithfully, including to our faces. My wife likes the scent, and the bottle was convenient to carry along in her small beach bag.
Question:	Is this biodegradable? We plan to wear this sunscreen when snorkeling around a reef if it's safe
Answer:	As of July 2018, the description says that it is Oxybenzone free. I think that is the reef damaging chemical (definitely hormone disruptor) so this product should be safe. Here is a list of chemicals to be avoided: (website included at the bottom for more information) The HEL LIST includes: Any form of microplastic sphere or beads. Any nanoparticles like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Oxybenzone Octinoxate 4-methylbenzylidene camphor Octocrylene Para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) Methyl Paraben Ethyl Paraben Propyl Paraben Butyl Paraben Benzyl Paraben Triclosan http://www.haereticus-lab.org/protect-land-sea-certification/

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the zinc nano
Answer:	It does not identify it as nano, only zinc oxide on the packaging.
Question:	is this non-comedogenic
Answer:	Well my skin is very sensitive and after a treatment for acne with antibiotics in my skin I haven't used make up last month plus this si block every single morning and I don't have more pimples ... The only thing that I don't like is to greasy... I have oily skin and in the afternoon I shine like a star!
Question:	is this reef safe
Answer:	The Neutrogena website does not list oxybenzone or octinoxate on the list of ingredients. Here is a list of active and inactive ingredients: Active ingredients: Titanium Dioxide 4.9%, Zinc Oxide 4.7% . Inactive ingredients: Water, Butyloctyl Salicylate, Beeswax, Styrene/acrylates Copolymer, Silica, Butylene Glycol, PEG-8, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, Cetyl Dimethicone, Benzyl Alcohol, Dimethicone, Methicone, Arachidyl Alcohol, Polyhydroxystearic Acid, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, PEG-8 Laurate, Xanthan Gum, Isohexadecane, Behenyl Alcohol, Trisiloxane, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium Edta, Trimethylsiloxysilicate, Arachidyl Glucoside, Bisabolol, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Bht, Polysorbate 60, Stearic Acid, Methylisothiazolinone, Polyaminopropyl Biguanide, Polymethyl Methacrylate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ascorbic Acid, Pantothenic Acid, Retinyl Palmitate, Alumina.
Question:	Does this leave a film on your skin? Or does it soak in. thanks
Answer:	If you rub it in well, it will not leave any film on the skin and will be invisible. But this is not as easy to do as other products without zinc oxide. Usually this is only a problem over hairy areas like my unshaved chin. Still it is well worth it to me for the safe ingredients alone.

User questions & answers

Question:	How do I get rid of the white cast?? I cannot go to work like this
Answer:	Thanks for your message regarding Cerave Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50. Because the ingredients stay on the surface of your skin, a white cast can sometimes remain after applying the product. We suggest applying a small amount in the palm of your hands and rubbing them together. Then, apply to one small area at a time, rubbing well. The formula should apply easily leaving a lightweight, non-greasy feel. Keep in mind, all sunscreens should be applied liberally for sun protection.
Question:	Is the zinc nanoparticles
Answer:	Hello! Thank you for reaching out in regards to our CeraVe 100% Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50. The zinc oxide and titanium dioxide in the Hydrating Sunscreen formula are nanoparticles. We use some ingredients in nano-size because they provide benefits such as a creamier texture, easier spreading on skin, and improve performance. It is important to keep in mind that the nanomaterials we use are regularly assessed by international regulatory authorities, including the FDA. As for all our ingredients, their safety is strictly evaluated, taking into account their specific properties. The nanomaterials in our products do not cross the skin barrier and we also formulated our products and packaging in such a way to ensure there is no exposure via inhalation. Thank you for your question. Your safety is our top priority and we hope this information is helpful.
Question:	What is the difference between this and the ‘body’ formula
Answer:	Hi there! Thank you for your interest in our sunscreens. Our Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 for face was specifically formulated for the face and has Niacinamide to help calm and soothe the skin. Both sunscreens are allergy tested, oil-free, non-comedogenic and suitable for sensitive skin and protects against UVA/UVB rays. We hope you can use our products with great satisfaction.
Question:	Should you apply under make up or over make up
Answer:	Hi there! You should apply your sunscreen as the last step in your morning skincare regimen. After it has fully absorbed into the skin, then you can apply your makeup. We hope this was helpful!

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this leave a white cast
Answer:	Yes. The degree of whiteness will vary depending on the color of your skin and the amount of sunscreen you apply. It makes me look like Casper the Friendly Ghost. The bright side is that it works really well as a sun block even when I am in the water for extended times. I've tried many other sunscreens and this is the only one that seems to protect even after 1 hour of surfing. So I would recommend it for water-sports, but not for land-sports like skiing, tennis, etc. It is also somewhat greasy and can rub off on clothing or gear, so I would recommend that you clean your hands before touching any equipment.
Question:	Does this contain avobenzone, oxybenzone, octocrylene, or ecamsule
Answer:	None of these are listed on the ingredients label.
Question:	This is about the dry touch spf 30, not 50. Does it leave a pasty white film? Can it be worn under makeup? Thank u
Answer:	The one with Zinc leaves a white sheen. I would not wear it under make up. The one with out zinc does not leave a coating and I do wear it under my make up. I like the zinc for my nose because zinc has healing qualities and I have skin cancer on my nose. Hope this helps.
Question:	does anyone know if this sunscreen is biodegradable or if it has nano particles? I'm looking for something safe for reefs
Answer:	Per the EWG site, it states that the product's ZINC OXIDE is (sunscreen grade > 100nm grade) and my understanding is that anything greater than 100nm is non particle. I'm not sure if it's biodegradable.

User questions & answers

Question:	can adults use this product
Answer:	Yes. It’s just marketing, though with the Aveeno kids & baby ones, they are more careful about not putting in questionable ingredients (they have a few, but not as bad), plus they actually have much better UVA protection & balance to the SPF factor, than the other Aveeno products. (means better protection from cancer.) Better for everyone, no matter your age. Search EWG Skin Deep for their sunscreen guide for more info. I think the kids and baby formulas may be the same, but you know, some kids don’t want their sunscreen to say “baby.”
Question:	Is this good for a 7 year old
Answer:	Yes. Is nade for kids and toddlers is very safe. My baby has a very delicate skin and it didn’t cause a reaction
Question:	how many days shipped it
Answer:	I bought it at the beginning of quarantine so it shipped fast but now amazon shipping is taking crazy long time to ship.
Question:	Does this product normally come with a seal? Mine did not have a seal under the cap and you just can’t be too careful these days
Answer:	No seal on it.

Product description

Broad Spectrum

Broad spectrum sunscreen protects your skin from both UVA and UVB rays. Our Clear Zinc product adds a protective barrier between your face and the sun. Slather your beak and watch it disappear.

SPF Rating

No sunscreen blocks of UV rays, however, higher SPF helps if you are fair skinned or have a history of skin cancer. Sun Bum's Clear Zinc blocks nearly 98% of UVB rays which can cause sunburn and contribute to skin cancer.

Friendly Ingredients

Enriched with Vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps to neutralize free radicals. Vitamin E also acts as a moisturizer and can prevent premature aging. Our sunscreen is hypoallergenic and designed for even the most sensitive skin. *see ingredients list

User questions & answers

Question:	How many ounces is each container
Answer:	3 fluid ounces. TSA-friendly :)
Question:	What % of zinc oxide does it have
Answer:	7.00%, best sunscreen on the market. Doesn't leave you looking like a ghost, goes on and clears. Well worth the money.
Question:	Is this clear or white
Answer:	It is a lightweight, white-colored lotion out of the container which absorbs quickly into the skin and isn't visible within minutes. Having said that, if you sweat immediately after application you can see the white lotion - sweating makes it hard to absorb the lotion (so apply it in a cooler, dry environment, allow it to soak in, and then you should be OK).We just got back from a trip to Bora Bora, with intense sun, and were very impressed at how well the lotion worked (no burning at all), and how good the lotion smells. We will definitely be purchasing this lotion again.
Question:	What are the inactive ingedients
Answer:	I just posted a review with a pic of the inactive ingredients. Hope that helps.

• UNCOMMONLY CLEAN – Sensitive skin rejoices under the protection of our lightly-scented natural vanilla and coconut oil zinc-oxide stick made from only 4 certified organic and mineral sunscreen ingredients, ensuring face-safe and baby-safe broad-spectrum coverage.
• UNCOMMONLY EFFECTIVE – Hardworking, non-greasy moisturizing formula is non-irritating and water-resistant 80 minutes or more. Large stick is easy to apply, won’t run or sting eyes.
• UNCOMMONLY ORGANIC – We build our products with only certified organic and mineral ingredients. What that means - 100% toxin-free, clean protection for you with no petrochemicals, ever.
• TRY RISK-FREE - Waxhead is highly rated by our customers. But we'll let you be the judge. If you don't fall in love with our sunscreen, we'll refund your order, no questions asked. HOW TO APPLY - Slowly push stick up from bottom. Dot, spread and rub on skin.

User questions & answers

Question:	From 1-10 how sticky is this? If I put some on and then touch the area will I feel the stickiness
Answer:	1- it's not sticky- other than you have a white layer on you, I forget it's on.
Question:	How long does this last? How many applications
Answer:	I couldn’t say, I haven’t even got to the bottom of mine! A little goes far. I use this on my face and my daughters; we are both very fair and burn easily. I used it on us both everyday for 8 days, reapplying throughout the day and still have some left.
Question:	Is it good for acne prone skin
Answer:	Absolutely good for oily skin...actually best very oily skin verses dry skin...and it totally protects from burning in Maui when we were constantly in water with snorkelling and scuba. Also try the warhead lip stick.
Question:	When dose this sunscreen expire
Answer:	Officially, our sunscreens "expire" 2 years after purchase date. However, this is based on FDA directives mainly concerned with the effective life of petrochemicals in common sunscreens. Our Waxhead sunscreens use non-nano un-coated zinc oxide as their sole active ingredient, and since this is mineral based, our sunscreens' ability to perform its function of defending against UVA and UVB rays never diminishes. Our inactive ingredients, for our sport stick these are certified organic versions of coconut oil, beeswax and vanilla, contain significant amounts of naturally occurring anti-fungal and antibacterial properties, which significantly slow any spoilage. In short, our sunscreens will work as long as they're owned. We really appreciate your support, and if there's anything else we can help you with, don't hesitate to ask.
