Coppertone Pure and Simple Zinc Oxide Mineral Sunscreen Spray SPF 50, Water Resistant, Broad Spectrum SPF 50 Sunscreen for Sensitive Skin, 5 Oz Spray

With everything else on our world we are constantly learning and evolving. I've been learning about the difference of mineral vs chemical sunscreen. Think about it 'chemical' does that even sound like something we should be putting on our skin?!!! Her dermatologist recommended a mineral sunscreen. We figured we couldn't go wrong with this popular brand.

Happy that this product sprays well, and is natural and does not have harmful chemicals

First, this product arrived without a sealed wrapper around the cap like most sunscreen sprays have on them.This product is difficult to apply and spread onto the face and other parts of the body due to its texture. It does feel somewhat sticky, but it does not feel as powdery as other mineral sunscreen sprays. I would strongly suggest to anyone that uses this product to GENTLY rub and spread this product onto their skin after applying it as it is difficult to spread. Although contradicting the instructions, I directly sprayed the product to my forehead and cheeks, and then rubbed it gently on my face. Be aware that long-term aggressive rubbing of the face with any product may lead to loss of elasticity and sagging of the skin.This does leave a mild white cast and washing it off is fairly easy, although it still leaves traces on your skin if you do not rub if off aggressively.On a positive note, the price of this product is difficult to beat with its high concentration of zinc oxide.UPDATED REVIEW 08/12/2021:I upgraded my rating from three stars to four stars. This sunscreen is harder to rub on the skin than other mineral spray sunscreens I have used; therefore, I use my index and middle finger to rub it gently on my neck, face and forehead to avoid aggressive rubbing of the skin, using gentle strokes and taps. Because of its tight texture, it is not runny; therefore, it is sweat resistant - a positive if you are outside on a hot day and sweating. The same applies if you are showering as this product will not run into your eyes as you are washing your face with this sunscreen still on. It is also fairly easy to apply to facial hair. This sunscreen may have an unpleasant odor for some people. It does not leave a heavy white cast in comparison to other spray mineral sunscreens. I use a men's face wash in the shower to wash this sunscreen off, which comes off pretty easily.

I work in a dermatology office, Zinc is the best ingredient for a sunscreen. I have been searching for a zinc sunscreen that is light on the skin and doesn’t leave such a white cast. This is the best one I have found so far!

Did not create a white film on my arms in the heat or due to sweat. Went on lightly and did not feel heavy on the skin or like it was clogging my pores. 100% recommend.

There is nothing in the ingredients that we are allergic to, but everyone here who used this spray on sunblock developed a raised blister-y rash everywhere they had the sunblock. Even though we shook the can very well, it comes out as either little white tiny liquid dots or brownish blobs - I think this stuff is spoiled/contaminated.

This is an ok spray sunscreen. But sprays on very white and a little hard to rub in unlike other spray sunscreens I have used in the past. It wasn’t my favorite and probably won’t purchase again.

This is a great product for sensitive skin. It blends out pretty well but does spray on white. This is the only sunscreen I have found that doesn’t make my skin break out into hives from the chemicals when being out in the hot sun!
