Thick and grease like powder
I used this and couldn’t get it to wash off. It was like a powdery feel yet greasy but wouldn’t wash off for days. I do not like this nor would I buy it.
Good Reef Safe Suncreen
This is the first mineral sunscreen that I have tried in a spray format. You really have to shake this sunscreen up both before and while using it and I found that even when I did this, I didn't get the nice consistent spray that I would get from my other sunscreens. Sometimes I wasn't sure if I was actually getting any sunscreen or just air and other times, I would get a lot of sunscreen and would end up with white patches on my skin. When using this you really need to make sure you rub it into your skin otherwise you will end up with patchy white spots on your skin (and I know you should do that with your other spray sunscreens too, but I know a lot of us do not actually do that step). I also found that this sunscreen was used up very quickly compared to the other spray sunscreens that I use. I don't think that this would replace my regular sunscreen for everyday use, but I would definitely look to use it when travelling to places where I need to use a reef safe sunscreen.
Dries fast and no greasy feeling
I received a free sample of Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral SPF 50 Spray to try and share my opinion.
I love Blue Lizard sunscreens—those are to go in my household—but I've never used a spray. It is very convenient and easy to apply. The sunscreen absorbs very fast and doesn't leave any white color on the skin. There is no greasy or sticky feeling, and there is no skin reaction.
The only problem I found was that the spray stopped working after a few times. Which is sad, because I have a full bottle that I can't use anymore. Might stick to regular cream
Wanted a more effective sunscreen
I really wanted to like this sunscreen since I've been gearing towards mineral sunscreen, but unfortunately when we used it at the beach, we still got sunburned even though we reapplied way before the 2 hour mark. Otherwise, the texture is quite nice and absorbs quickly. Packaging is also really nice!
Effective but…
I tried on this sunscreen at a family BBQ and it really protected from the sun. As much as it’s effective and that the ingredients seem rather good and healthy, I did not enjoy the scent of the product. It smells like salt and lingers on strongly for hours and hours.
Hum…
Sure! Here’s a neutral, balanced review for the BLUE LIZARD SENSITIVE SPRAY SPF 50 (142g):
⸻
We tried the Blue Lizard Sensitive Spray SPF 50 and appreciated that it’s gentle on the skin—great for sensitive skin types and free from irritating ingredients. The spray application is convenient and dries fairly quickly without a greasy residue. However, despite reapplying as directed, it didn’t fully protect us from sunburns during extended sun exposure. It may work well for shorter outdoor activities or moderate sun, but for long hours in strong sun, we didn’t find the coverage reliable enough.
Good for fair skin tone
The sunscreen spray takes some time to blend in and leaves a satin finish once it settles in. It has a milky texture but on the greasy side. I experienced no pilling and no irritation but it leaves a white cast on my skin.
Spray sun lotion
This product was very nice on my skin; was also great on my kids’ skin too! Although I think this is a great product, I found it rather pricey. Can looks cool too:)
Not for me
I’m not a huge fan of sprays to begin with as I’m always worried they won’t coat enough. I tried this out on two different occasions and both times I unfortunately got burnt. I did like the smell and feel of it so I’d love to try the cream but the spray just wasn’t for me.
Blue lizard sunscreen
I tried this for my family as I thought it would be a fun way to apply sunscreen. The spf was good at 50 uva/uvb protection. This worked well on some areas .... The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars was because some of my kids got burnt from im guessing it being blown around in the slight breeze. It dries fast which is nice. On the areas where I know for sure were sprayed it held up really well. Trusted by dermatologists so maybe next time I won't apply it outside. Thanks Butterly.com for this free product.
