Badger Balm SPF 35 Sport Sunscreen Cream- 2.9 oz

Badger Balm Sunscreen works better than any other sunscreen product I have used. It does take some time and a little effort to apply properly. It takes very little product to work and that is key. Start with small sections of your body and a pea sized amount and use more as needed. If you use too much you will be white and it will not rub in properly. It is about quality and not quantity. I will not go back to drug store brands with all the chemicals. Thanks for making great products Badger Balm!

It went on nice with no chalky look. Bought it because it was rated reef safe. The only places my skinned burned is where I used this sunscreen. Others in my party used Banana Boat simply protect baby spray on with great success. Yes I used it as directed.

Great natural sunscreen , BUT there is a slight learning curve with it: apply the VERY thick paste formula to your palm, then swirl and mash it for a good 10 seconds to warm the formula up, before dabbing dots of it all over your face. Then using your fingertips, press and pat the formula into your skin. A lingering touch (to further warm it) really helps. Minimal rubbing is key, instead focus on patting and spreading with your finger tips. I find a little bit of rubbing toward the end, when the formula is all warmed up and evenly spread, and disappearing, helps to disperses the slight white cast, which if done properly, patiently, is minimal. When you can just barely discern a white cast, you're done. The very, very slight lingering white cast will dissipate further, over 30 minutes or so. However, there may be a hint of it left, depending on your coloring. This is just the nature of the beast with non-nano zinc exclusive sunscreens, period. I don't find it too ghost-eee or noticeable—more of a lightening effect—and consider it a very acceptable trade off for the benefits of Badger's Sport formula--incredible staying power and the best UVA protection possible from one of the highest zinc contents on the market. I find this formula moisturizing for my dry skin, though after several hours, like most zinc formulas, and particularly on low humidity days, it might feel a little drying and "maskey". I much prefer the natural oil and wax formula of Badger's paste formula over the almost universal silicone formulas of everyone else. Again, the maskey feeling is just part of mineral formulated sunscreens—the zinc needs to sit on the top layer of your skin to bounce the sun's rays away, and is not suppose to sink into your skin.

No denying it worked, but trying to get it into my poor skin was a chore and a half. I felt like I was trying to rub my skin off on occasional trying to smooth it out. However, it did work like a charm when I did have to wear it. Even if I looked something like a corpse while doing so! I have concluded though that I might have gotten an old tube from the vendor I had purchased it from. As the clear zinc, with virtually the same combination of oils/etc goes on much nicer. I guess I am vain though because I just couldn't abide how much More white it made me. But it does do the trick! And no skin reactions.

I have been using this sunscreen on my 7 month old baby for the past 4 months in the scorching Florida sun. She has never gotten burnt or even slightly red. You can tell when you apply the sunscreen it's different than most, hence why it actually works. I wanted all natural for my little one and we got it with Badger! Granted the over the counter sun screens are cheaper and more easily accessible but filled with toxic chemicals. Thanks for your wonderful product, Badger!! I will continue to recommend your sun screens to all my friends and family!!
