Description

Moisturize your face and body while protecting it from harmful UVA/UVB rays with the Black Girl Sunscreen. This sunscreen is broad spectrum with an SPF of 30. It blends effortlessly and eliminates all white cast. It is infused with natural ingredients such as avocado, jojoba, cacao, carrot juice and sunflower oil. These soothe, moisturize, protect, hydrate and heal skin.

Our story begins with the need for a sunscreen brand that caters exclusively to women of color.

From carrying expensive umbrellas to the beach to avoiding the sunshine all together, women of color have come up with their own methods of protecting their skin. For years, sunscreen has been tailored to light skin individuals, leaving behind a visible white-residue on our darker skin sisters. Blotchy makeup and white residue were enough to keep people from truly enjoying a beautiful sunny day. Our founder thought it was about time to change that.

In 2016, Shontay Lundy created Black Girl Sunscreen, a 30 SPF lotion infused with natural ingredients and formulated for women of color. Made with melanated skin in mind, BGS dries completely clear and protects melanin without the white-cast.

Today, BGS is making moves! Black Girl Sunscreen has grown exponentially because of you. The goal of BGS is to start the conversation globally around sun safety to educate and protect melanin beauties worldwide. Now with four products, we’re saying Black does crack and it’s in our power to protect it.

Q: Well if this isn’t racial division.

submitted by MollieMae - 5 years ago
  • A: Black Girl Sunscreen protects people of ALL skin tones and helps to reach people of color who are more likely to skip sunscreen because most other brands leave a chalky residue on darker skin. I hope this helps!

    submitted byTeam BGS - 5 years ago
  • A: Its not. Its clearly formulated for use by more melanated individuals, by melanated individuals.. as opposed to the *other* sunscreen that does not offer the "Black Girl" prefix. Thankyouuuu

    submitted bybeesbites - 3 years ago
  • A: Everyone's skin tone is different.We all can't use the same product.

    submitted byReally - 2 years ago
  • A: Well, if it’s racial division they want, I’m fine with it. Let’s really do it 100%.

    submitted byNK182 - 1 year ago
  • A: You're ridiculous.

    submitted bySuperMama42 - 4 years ago
  • A: You're right, it isn't racial division -- it's introducing a product to fill a need that hasn't been filled before: sunscreen that doesn't make dark skin look chalky. Which means that people with darker-hued skin can protect themselves without having to sacrifice appearance, which wasn't a problem for lighter-hued people. Now we can all put our skin health first! Hooray for inclusivity! (recognizing factual differences isn't division ... it's only "division" if you apply qualitative judgements to them)

    Highly satisfied.

    I rarely leave reviews but felt compelled after trying BGS. This sunscreen works amazingly well, NO white cast, highly moisturizing on my dry, mature, melanin rich skin. Worth the price. Will definitely purchase again and again.

    Best sunscreen ever!

    This is my most favorite sunscreen ever it’s thick consistency, not overly thick, but not really thin. When I put this on and I don’t have to put moisturizer on before it, it leaves my skin so dewy and glowy. I highly recommend my sunscreen. There is no white cast. I always put this under my makeup and I have had no problems.

    White Cast

    It’s been years since Ive tried this product and I couldn’t remember why I didn’t like it in the first place so I decided to try it again because my sister loves it. This product left a white cast and started to flake with reapplication. I was a little surprised since it’s a chemical sunscreen. It had a strong scent that reminds me of eucalyptus. I’ll continue to use it on my body for when I go outside for a walk, but definitely would not repurchase.

    Best Sunscreen Ever!

    The BGS SPF 30 Moisturizing Sunscreen Lotion is my favorite sunscreen ever! My skin is dry, sensitive, and pale for reference. This sunscreen is moisturizing but not greasy, has very little smell, doesn’t sting my eyes, and produces no white cast (although I’m very pale so probably not the most valuable source for this). I’ve used it in place of my moisturizer and my skin felt great. I also forget to wash it off before bed sometimes and haven’t woken up with a breakout. The EWG rates it a 2 on their hazard score range which is really hard to find especially for a chemical sunscreen. Additionally it’s reef safe and cruelty free! I am also so happy that I can put money back into the community instead of into the hands of megacorporations and private equity firms. I really want to try the hybrid sunscreen because it’s pretty hard to find them in the US. My ONLY complaint is that it doesn’t come in a bigger bottle!

    BGS Delivers Without White Case or Pilling

    I’ve been very pleased with Black Girl Sunscreen. It feels great on my skin—lightweight, comfortable, and not overly greasy. It provides just the right amount of moisture, which is a huge plus for my skincare routine. One of the things I appreciate most is that it leaves absolutely no white cast and doesn’t pill when applied. It absorbs well and wears nicely throughout the day. Because it offers both hydration and sun protection, it eliminates the need for me to use a separate moisturizer and sunscreen, saving both time and effort. Overall, Black Girl Sunscreen delivers excellent sun protection while keeping my skin moisturized and looking natural. It’s become a staple in my daily skincare routine.

    Very moisturizing and went on smoothly. No chalky residue when I sweated or got into the pool and felt more like lotion than sunscreen. Definitely gave full coverage.

    The best sunscreen ever make for black skin

    I didn't know the DPN's on my face were due to sun damage but ever since I found out, you will never catch me out in the sun unprotected. I've always hated sunscreen because they smelled so bad and left this white cast on my face so I stayed away but when I found out even as a black person that I need sunscreen I started searching for something better and I found BGS. I bough the lotion and fell in love. Smells great, no white cast and I love how moisturizing it makes my skin feel. So I thought they've got to have more products. I found out they have sprays and even sunscreen sticks. Awesome. Im going to order more to protect my beautiful black skin.

    I love to use this product as I am able to use it before I apply my makeup I use it along with an elf glow serum that I use which is also good and it just has been clearing up my dark spots and it just also is water resistance in the morning when I I am working outside and doesn't leave a white residue which I like definitely worth a try
