I was on the lookout for a good quality spf for everyday and outdoor activities. This is great! Not super greasy but it leaves a nice sheen. It does not color your clothes orange like some lower quality sunscreens. This is a great option for anyone trying to incorporate sunscreen into their daily routines.

I bought this because we went on a trip to Punta Cana and I knew we needed a LOT of sunblock. I had seen this at a playground as the sunblock they had the kids apply before recess and figured it couldn’t hurt to try it. 10/10 I didn’t get sunburnt, it’s reef safe, and it was easy to just take one bottle in a checked bag than trying to squeeze in a bunch of little ones into a quart bag or having to buy it at the resort.

This is by far the best sunscreen I have ever used. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is when I received the bottle about 20% of the bottle had leaked out of the bottle. This sunscreen does not leave a cakey feeling on yours skin. And you dont have to use a lot either. This bottle will last you a long time. I use it on my face and can’t even tell I put it on. The best part is, you don’t really have to apply it very often. My family of 6 went to a waterpark last week and used this sunscreen. We were in 102 degree sun from 11am – 6pm in and out of water the whole time. We applied the sunscreen twice and none of us got any kind of burn. I highly recommend this to everybody.

This was a shared sunscreen for our family and it worked perfectly. Went on great and by the end of our trip we had a little less than half which I was impressed with. Would definitely repurchase!

My husband brought home some of this years ago while playing golf out west (Colorado?). It was at various places throughout the golf course, and he was impressed with it enough to buy some. We get the larger bottle and keep it handy during the summer, and have been very pleased with its easy to spread formula. There is no scent, which we like also. Great sun protection, btw! Highly recommend!

Discovered Rocky Mountain Sunscreen on a raft trip and found the sun protection to be wonderful. We have used it for years and are pleased with the results of not getting burned by the sun.

I’ve been using versions of this SPF 50 sunscreen for over 10 years, in the mountains and around town. Recent reformulations to make it more eco-friendly and to reduce potential health problems have unfortunately created some other problems for me.
1) It burns my eyes. I have to be extra careful to not apply it anywhere where sweat might get it into my eyes.
2) The emulsion is not as stable. I’ve had a 1 quart bottle around for over a year, and it’s separated. I can mix it up with some success, but don’t know if it’s still effective. It does seem to be worse than ever with regards to burning my eyes, so I’m going to have to throw it out.
I went for a hike yesterday, and after 4 hours I could barely keep my eyes open. It felt like snow blindness. My friend had to drive us home in my car. A day later my eyes are still aching a little. This is unacceptable. I’m sadly going to have to look for a different brand.
**********
Below is my original review, applies to older versions (which contain some more questionable sunscreen ingredients:
This is the best sunscreen I’ve ever used. I got it specifically for alpine mountaineering, where I can end up in the sun for long days at high altitudes. I’m a pale-face and will be destroyed by just half an hour in the sun at 12,000 feet … so I need something good.
This stuff works very well, stays on better than anything I’ve used when sweating, doesn’t irritate my skin or smell like perfume, doesn’t make me break out, and doesn’t make me overheat (I’ve used some sun screens that seem to completely block sweat glands … yikes).
Why only 4 stars? They reformulated it in recent years, to meet the Broad-Spectrum requirements. This is a good thing. But the new formula stings my eyes much more than the old one. It’s not awful … not the blinding burn that I’ve gotten from some sun screens. And it’s a fair tradeoff for the added protection. But I’d love it if they could tweak the formula to make it a bit more eye-friendly. If there’s any sunscreen on my forehead, sweat will eventually ooze it into my eyes. And I sometimes get it into my eyes from my hands when rubbing an itch. So just be aware. It’s not more irritating than most sunscreens … just more than it used to be.
Some people do find it irritating on their skin. My girlfriend is sensitive to most cosmetic products and sun screens … I think she has a paraben sensitivity. If you suspect you’re similar, try a smaller size first.
Here’s the big caveat. It applies to all sun screens. They are not magic. You can’t put it on in the morning and forget about it. As good as this stuff is, it will sweat off and it will rub off. And it will not work as promised unless you use it generously and thoroughly. I goop it on and pay a lot of attention to not missing spots. And try to put it on again every two hours while exercising. In the mountains I don’t have a lot of exposed skin, so it’s not a big deal. If you’re a surfer, you will go through a lot of these big bottles. The only times I get burned now are when I’m sloppy … either missing patches of skin, or forgetting to reapply early enough.
Edited to add: The big pump bottle’s handy. I keep it at home for daily use. For bringing the sunscreen on trips, I don’t buy smaller sizes; I just get the small plastic squeeze bottles that are made for energy gels and fill them from the pump. Reusable and economical. The bottles are translucent, so when filled with this stuff they’ll be obviously white. You won’t likely swallow a swig of sunscreen by mistake.
Edited again: they’ve completely reformulated it for 2018. I haven’t tried the new version. I’m waiting for a reply to my email asking what / why they did.

I have used this before and it is great. This bottle is HUGE! Great protection too!
