This review is from: Peter Thomas Roth Uber Dry Sunscreen SPF30 4.2 oz (Misc.)
I've been on the daily sunscreen band wagon for quite a few years and I've tried many - always looking for that perfect one. Like relationships, there are no perfect ones. But this one is pretty good in terms of ease of use, feel and protection - the sunscreen, I mean, of course. :)

Non-chemical sunscreens appeal to me but who wants to spend the day looking like a Geisha girl from the white face effect of zinc oxide? I have tried sunscreens that feel creamy smooth and look great on my skin, but are lacking in decent protection, those with a great protection pedigree that are just sticky and/or so shiny and oily that they make you want to wash your face and just forget it! And then there are the so-called "dry" sunscreens like this one. A wonderful concept, but like every other sunscreen, they have some trade-offs.

UVA PROTECTION:

I can't find a photo-stabilizer for the UVA protection in this sunscreen listed in its ingredients.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great sunscreen for oily skin, November 25, 2009
By 
Eva (Midwest, USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
If you skin tends to get oily in the summer heat, this sunscreen is great because it won't add a heavy layer of shine like many other sunscreens. It's lightweight, matte finish and blends easily so you don't have white streaks on your face. It isn't overly drying, so you won't have cakey looking dry skin. I have very fair skin and it works very well to protect against sunburn and skin damage. It's also non-irritating and works with even sensitive skin types. I wear it under makeup and don't even need to add a moisturizer when I wear it. I'm very happy with the sunscreen and will be purchasing it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars my esthetician isn't happy...but I am, March 6, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Peter Thomas Roth Uber Dry Sunscreen SPF30 4.2 oz (Misc.)
I've been getting professional facials for 15 years and this product was recommended and sold to me by my esthetician for years. Until a few years ago, PTR was an exclusive line available only to practioners but now it's available online (and on QVC). I've always loved this product bc I have fair skin and need coverage that doesn't clog my pores. I can use it around my eyes (not too close) and it doesn't sweat off and burn your eyes out like cheap products. It also gives your face a nice healthy look. My esthetician recommended a different product line when PTR went public and I said I really liked the one I've been using for years and asked if she no longer thought it was a good product. She said, "No, its a great product...I just don't like their business practices" meaning it's no longer exclusive to professionals. Well, that's no reason for me to switch so she's not happy but I am. And the skin cleansers are great too!!!!

Sun Care FAQs
What is SPF?

The sun protection factor, or SPF, of sunscreen is a multiplier that tells you how much longer you can stay in the sun than normal without burning your skin. If you can tolerate 10 minutes in the sun without a burn, an SPF of 50 will provide 50 times that length of time, or 500 minutes of protection without burning.

What are UVA and UVB rays?

Both UVA and UVB rays cause damage to your skin. UVA rays are the main cause of skin aging and wrinkling, while UVB rays cause burning. Both contribute to the development of skin cancer. For the best protection, use a sunscreen with broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection.

It's cloudy outside--why do I need sunscreen products?

UVA rays are present throughout the year and can penetrate glass and clouds. They account for up to 95 percent of UV rays on the Earth's surface. UVB rays vary by season, location, and time of day and are strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. in April through October.

How often should I reapply?

For maximum protection, reapply every two hours or immediately after swimming, excessive sweating or towel drying. Banana Boat Sport Performance Lotion SPF 50 is water resistant for up to 80 minutes.

Are there any other Banana Boat sunscreen products recommended for complete coverage?

Yes, Banana Boat Sport Performance Sunscreen Stick is ideal for spot application around the ears, nose, and eyes, while Banana Boat Sport Performance Sunscreen Lip Balm protects and moisturizes your lips. There are also spray bottle options if you prefer that method of application.

Sun Care FAQs

1. Apply sunscreen at least 20 to 30 minutes before you hit the slopes, waves or trail. Be sure to coat those spots that will get prolonged exposure, like the back of your neck and shoulders. If you plan on being active, use a water-resistant sunscreen, like Banana Boat Sport Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30.

2. Reapply sunscreen frequently, at least every two hours. If you're in the surf or if you're breaking a good sweat, reapply more often.

3. One ounce of sunscreen should cover you from head to toe if you're wearing a swimsuit. That dollop's about the size of a golf ball.

4. The "farmer's tan" is especially likely when hiking, climbing or biking. So put sunscreen on before you dress, ensuring that you cover those often-forgotten spots, like ears, and the backs of hands and arms. If possible, carry a spray-on sunscreen with you, like UltraMist Sport Continuous Spray SPF 30, so you can keep moving.

5. Doesn't matter whether it's football or baseball season. If we're lucky, the sun's rays beam down on us every day. So use Banana Boat' Sunscreen all year round.

6. Just because it's cloudy doesn't mean you should skip the sunscreen. Dispersed sun rays still reach our skin, so you should still use sunscreen. If you're on the court or the course under clouds or haze, use at least a mid-range SPF like Banana Boat' Sport Sunscreen Lotion SPF 15.

7. Love the snow? Know that the higher you go, the stronger the sun. If you're skiing or snowboarding on a mountain, experts recommend a sport sunscreen with an SPF 30 or higher.

8. Remember that water acts as a lens, reflecting the sunlight to your skin and magnifying the effect. So whether you're on a board or a boat, use a high SPF sunscreen that's also water-resistant for more hard-hitting protection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Sunblock!!, June 30, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Banana Boat Sport Performance Sunblock Lotion SPF 50, 8-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 2) (Health and Beauty)
I only bought this because of the price but it is a great product. Been out in the sun for 3 days and 8 eight hours a day painting and I'm not in the hospital with 3rd degree burns. I put it on my face,ears and the back of my neck about 20 minutes before heading out to paint and then again about 4 hours later and NO BURN!! So I'm sure if you applied it every 2 hours you will be good to go,all day...The other nice thing is you don't need alot,just a little bit on your finger and work it in...I'm hoping the 8oz bottle lasts all summer,if not I got the other one..Hope this review was helpful

3.0 out of 5 stars Essential Protection Against Harmful Sun rays, September 22, 2010

Hope D R "Hope D R" (Dominican Republic) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
For my children, I started buying the sunscreens specially for kids (spf 45 or 50). Then, I met a good sunscreen of SPF 70, which I liked even better, that would protect my children further. Then, I met another sunscreen, one of SPF 85, and it was better still! But following the advise from friends, I tried to get better protection against our tropical Sun (I live in the Dominican Republic), for my children and myself's swimming practice. So, I purchased this product...

While it works, I cannot say that it does better than my previous sunscreen of SPF 85. The previous sunscreen (the 85 SPF one) protected us better (fair skins on all of us), helping us to get no more than a mild tone on our skins. I don't know if it was because the 85 SPF resisted the water activity better... With this Banana Boat Performance Sunblock Lotion SPF 100, we got noticeably more toned. But what really had me worried is that I noticed on my face some darker spots that weren't there before (it's... Read more

Good sun protection, but it left a residue even after I took a shower and scrubbed my skin. Took 2 days to wash the sticky residue off.

This stuff is very oily, irritating stuff. It says rub free, but it doesn't dry like other products of this brand. Also, via stings sunburned skin. Avoid.
