3.0 out of 5 stars High safety rating but TOO thick for me!, June 26, 2012

The Badger Unscented Broad Spectrum SPF 35 Sport Sunscreen is given a very high safety rating by the EWG Skin Deep Cosmetics Database which means that it contains no known potential irritants, carcinogens or other toxic ingredients. Also, its efficacy in providing UVB/UVA protection is highly rated. However, I have two problems with this sunscreen:

1. My primary concern is that this sunscreen is extremely thick, quite possibly the thickest sunscreen I have ever tried! For that reason, I am limited as to its use and cannot use it on my face. I would rather not have to buy a separate sunscreen for my face and therefore prefer sunscreens with more of a lotion consistency for faster, easier application anywhere.

2. This unscented sunscreen has a strong, definite scent which, although not that unpleasant, is not supposed to be there! The scent is very similar to that of my colloidal oatmeal hand lotion and could be due in part to shea butter, a common... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Mixed Feelings About This Product, July 29, 2012
This review is from: Badger - Suscreen - Sport Sunscreen SPF 35 Unscented Water Resistant Organic - 2.9 floz. (Health and Beauty)
I'd been using Coppertone Sport SPF 50 for the last few years, which seemed to work fine, but recently, I've been having photo-sensitivity issues, where despite accurately applying the sunscreen, I'd break out in nasty hives (and occasionally, welts) from being outside. Not so good when you're a nature photographer & outside in the Texas heat! I'm also day-glo white, thanks to a job that keeps me indoors for the majority of the day (seriously, I swear I glow in the dark), and my fair skin is highly prone to sunburn, so a good, protecting sunscreen is a MUST.

After receiving high Environmental Safety ratings, and reading up on Badger Sunscreens, I thought I'd give this a try.

The Good:
* I haven't any photo-sensitivity issues with this sunscreen. Not one single itch, hive, or welt.
* There is a scent, and as another reviewer stated, it smells vaguely of oatmeal. I tend to be somewhat sensitive to odor, but this didn't bother me.

2.0 out of 5 stars confident in its protection but tooooo greasy, July 22, 2012

CONS: 1) This sunscreen is sooo greasy that you will leave residue all over anything you touch (i.e. my car stearing wheel, my clothes, cellphone, anything!). I felt gross. 2) It leaves a white cast on your skin no matter how much you rub it in. I looked like a Japanese Kabuki actor walking around my neighborhood. And I'm already pretty white to begin with. 3) It is very thick, so rubbing it in is difficult. I had to tug at my skin, which may've caused more wrinkles than the sunscreen was supposed to prevent. 4) The scent is NOT unscented. It smells like oatmeal dough batter, but... not very good dough. Someone else described it smelling like dog biscuits. That's fairly accurate.

PROS: 1) I was very confident in the protection it provided. It has one of the highest levels of zinc oxide available on the market. 2) The ingredients are non chemical and safe for use according to the Environmental Working Group's 2012 Sunscreen Guide. It was rated as one of the best... Read more
