Waxhead Tinted Zinc Sunscreen Stick Face SPF 30 - Reef Safe Sunscreen, Tinted Zinc Oxide Stick Biodegradable, Waterproof, Skin Tone, Food-Grade, Non-Nano, Natural Non-Toxic Kids, Surfing (Tint, 3.7oz)

Fantastic, natural, love the peace of mind knowing that I could accidentally ingest some of this product without harm.I’ve used this surfing multiple 3 hour sessions in the most extreme summer SoCal UV with perfect protection, without reapplication. And yes, it will make your face a bit white but it can be easily removed after. Just wish this product was available back in the day. The only sunblock I trust for kids, and the stick lasts forever. Can get a bit gooey in a hot car, just keep it in a plastic bag. Money well spent.

This is the second time I've purchased Waxhead Tinted Sport Sunscreen and I absolutely LOVE it! It stays on my skin in the ocean, even for longer surf sessions (through sweat, salty water, and sand), is reef safe, and has skin healthy ingredients. I love that it's slightly tinted with a matte finish (versus some zinc oxide sunblocks that make your skin white/bluish and so shiny), and has a nice, subtle cocoa scent (from the cocoa powder). This sunscreen lasts a long time and is a great value for the price.I've also purchased their untinted sport stick and it's great too, but I prefer this one.I reached out to their customer service when I had a question about expiration dates, and the reply was very quick!

If you’re looking for the stuff that goes on white because it’s real sunblock this is it!I love that it’s only 4 simple ingredients and works better than all the others. 9 & 11 yr olds played for 1.5 hours of sunshine and pool time. After their showers their noses and cheeks were not pink and showed no signs of sun exposure. This is great because they usually get extremely bad sunburns on their nose and cheeks

I love the short ingredient list and reef safe quality. It’s effective- no burns or tan at all. Easy to spread, though a slight white caste (I don’t mind). I left off one star because it’s only 2 ounces, which won’t last long if you’re outside most days and so it would be expensive to buy enough for a Summer. As for scent, I think the beeswax stands out more than vanilla extract; not bad, just different.

Where to start… I came across this product a few years ago to use on my two boys who are competitive swimmers and they’re scanned. The product is amazing as it stays put and last through several hours of swimming even in chlorinated water. This summer I had a question about the product and was looking here to see if someone had answered it before. The owner, Shannon Kenner, had actually put his name and phone number in an answer to another persons review so I decided to call him. I expected to get someone in customer service or a recording that Shannon actually answered the phone. The man is brilliant and so well spoken about the fairly technical topic of sunscreens both natural like his and the chemical based options, I was blown away. I’m an attorney and can tell pretty quick if someone is spinning information and unable to answer questions an informed consumer would ask. Not only could he answer questions but he provided information I’d never knew about despite being fairly well- informed about natural products and the dangers of chemicals used in the “safe” sunscreens. He also explained that “nano” zinc oxide is a different species from the non-nano ingredients warhead uses and doesn’t provide the same level of coverage. Who knew. I use their tinted skin nourishing sunscreen as foundation everyday as does my ninth grader. He has some trouble with acne and the tretinoin (retain-a) makes his skin extremely sun sensitve and a tad pink. The tinted product counteracts that and doesn’t irritate his skin or exacerbate breakouts. He wears it to school and switches to the stick formula before his two hour swim practice. His skin looks great and the pinkness has lessened likely because some of it was due to sun exposure during practice. It’s rare to find a product that goes beyond what it promises and even rarer to find one with a founder so passionate and brilliant on the science underlying their product. The stick lasts forever and if it melts you can refrigerate it to restore its form. We had one of our sticks melt in the car in 102 degree heat wave and I decided to put some in a metal tin and refrigerate the stick and the product I took from the stick. Both came back to prior texture and I love the small size to carry around. Anyway, definitely give this product a try. I’m sue if you have any issues or questions, Shannon himself will help you. :)

This stuff is the best. I’ve tried pretty much everything. No weird ingredients to worry about, stays on for hours, smells good, spreads easily if you’re in a warm climate or put it in your pocket beforehand. Like all zinc sunblock, it’ll get in your clothing or gear if you touch it after application. Don’t touch it, problem solved.

Does work great for acne skin
