Babo Botanicals Sheer Mineral Sunscreen Lotion with SPF 50 Protection for UVA/UVB Rays

Iliana Santiago: I have used so many different sunscreens trying to find the right and SAFEST one for my kids and I fell in love with this product. My kids would get burned around their face with the sunscreen we were using when we used the pool and ever since switching to this they had no issues for the whole summer. I still apply a small amount (goes a long way) to their faces when it’s really sunny . It goes on smooth and doesn’t leave a white coating on their faces . Highly recommend!!!

Hester Prynne: I was looking for the least toxic sunscreen (after years on Nuetregena and oxybenzone, etc.). EWG recommended this sunscreen as pretty clean from bad stuff and it has a high zinc content for good sunscreen protection. It does whiten the skin, but not bad compared to most of the zinc sunscreen competitors. I also like that it has no perfume, but smells almost a bit like cocoa when I put it on (I like that - since I’m a chocoholic). I’m planning to buy more.

Rebecca: I have a UV sensitivity, meaning I can't be exposed to sun for very long. So I always have sunblock in my purse. I prefer the mineral ones because of potential skin irritation (my skin can get very sensitive when in the sun).

My biggest issue is most mineral sunblocks transfer the white film to clothes and well.. the car. Being the type of person who wears dark colored clothes (okay, black. Goths wear black) and having a black interior in my car (and I spend a lot of time in the car for work), getting white streaks all over everything is not ideal.

I've noticed that this one doesn't transfer a lot of white onto my clothes or anything that I come in contact with. A little bit, yes. There will always be something. But they meant it when they said sheer. My last sunblock left behind a lot of white on everything.

And it does seem to do its job for blocking UV rays. I'm not the best for assessing that because even in the 90°+ weather, I wear long sleeves and pants (the sunblock is for extra protection for the covered skin, protection for the little bit exposed skin). But on the little skin that's exposed, it seems to block as much as any other 50 SPF sunblock. I...

Keena S.: I found this sunscreen because I was concerned about the harmful ingredients found in many other popular sunscreens. I looked up ratings on EWG and found the handful of top rated suncreens and this lotion was the highest rating you could get for a relatively affordable price in a lotion formula.

PROS: Goes on well, not too greasy or thick. I thought the smell was just fine - I had seen some reviews saying the smell was horrible but I didn't experience that at all. It worked great on the kids and adults and seemed to be effective in the pool for a few hours in the sun and water.

CONS: It's a smaller bottle at a higher price point - but I think that's what you end up paying for something that's higher quality and safe. I think we'll go through this bottle pretty quick, it's a bit small, especially for a family with kids. I did notice a slight white cast once in the water, but it wasn't excessive and it seemed to absorb in better with time.

I will continue to keep buying this sunscreen and also will be looking for a safe sunscreen stick. I could see myself using this lotion for faces and finding a stick for the rest of the body, but until then I'll use this one...

DanicaDanica: Really nice mineral sunscreen. Leaves a bit of a white cast but sinks in after a while. I like it because it has no drying alcohols, fragrance or essential oils so it great for sensitive skin.
