"My kids and I are loving this product for our all over sun protection. None of us every liked hassling with lotions, the smells, the stingy watery eyes, feeling like my skin was suffocating in grease (even supposed non-oily kind). Colorscience powder if great! My kids love the sparkles and beg me to put sunscreen on them before we go anywhere plus they know when it needs to be reapplied because the sparkles are gone. It is important to use it liberally and make sure you covered everywhere but once you get it on properly you are covered for many hours. It does have good water resistance properties but like any sunscreen is important to reapply after submerging yourself in water. In the future, I will probably buy some of the colored stuff for my face because the clear makes me look like I'm all washed out. I would highly recomend this product to anyone that doesn't like traditional lotion sunscreens."
