It did what it was supposed to do. However, left a white case that was impossible to rub in or get off.

We love using this sunscreen on our baby! It doesn’t make her skin oily, easy to apply, and smells good.

Honestly, I got this sunscreen only because it has the highest percentage of zinc oxide protection. It helps a lot especially with burns. I use this everyday on my 2yo when we go outside in the mornings. One 3oz bottle lasts her 4-5mo. Great product!
Terrible product!

I applied this sunscreen twice in a three-hour period (not swimming), and I still ended up extremely burnt. I'm lucky a friend had used different sunscreen on my toddler so she didn't end up burnt too. I've never seen such worthless sunscreen.
Its ok but tjere might be better options...

I really don’t think you get enough of this stuff for the price point. It smells like baby lotion at the slightest which i didn’t mind too much. It is very pastey and thick, reminds me of destin diaper rash cream as far as consistency goes. It is definitely not runny as the banana boat mineral sunscreen i also have, for reference. it is a bit hard to rub in but it’s possible and it seemed to have worked but you will have to make sure to reapply because in areas that I didn’t we did get burnt easy

In July 2021, Johnson & Johnson recalled certain Neutrogena and Aveeno sunscreen products after third-party testing revealed the presence of benzene. Benzene is a known human carcinogen associated with leukemia, lymphoma, and other blood-related cancers. Please do not buy this for your babies! I threw mine away after purchasing it in early 2021 for my newborn. Will not trust this brand anymore, commercial products are increasingly becoming more risky.
The best!

I've used this sunscreen for years on both my kids and myself. It works. It's not super greasy and doesn't make my skin to do weird stuff (I'm sensitive ;)). Great formula without all the weird scary ingredients you don't know how to pronounce. No sunburns over here!
it is very thick and leaves a white coating

for me personally I did not like it, it is very difficult to apply and a very thick layer remains on the skin.

I bought this sunscreen because I really want to protect my skin. When I bought this product and started using it, I feel like I have to put a lot to rub in because the consistency is thick. At first my face really looked white because of the residue but over time it sinked into my skin. So I decided to apply it the first thing I wake up when i get ready for work. I also have acne and I can see that it’s not that red when the sunscreen is on. My skin feels protected and it feels good. The only downside that I experienced was that when I sweat, I feel some of the product run down in my eyes and it would hurt a little.
Its a no for me

My son has sensitive skin, and I’m allergic to sunblock so I use Aveeno for him because that is all I use for his body wash, and lotion. But I am not the biggest fan of this product. It’s very thick and hard to rub in.
It's okay -- Could cause acne

I had switched to this sunscreen because my previous one was making my neck itch and whatnot. I don’t have any irritation like that with this. However, this feels gritty while trying to apply, the white cast is pretty bad, and it could cause breakouts. I find that it takes forever to absorb—even into my dry skin—and it almost separates throughout the day. (This may not be intended for the face, but it is made for babies so it should be gentle enough to be used in this way. I have also read recommendations for this as a face sunscreen.)

Purchased this because of the good reviews after searching through many options and it is now listed on the list of sunscreens that contain a human carcinogen. So frustrating that I have been using this on my child.
Thick and leaves residue.

Leaves a very thick hard to remove residue on your hands after application. Difficult to fully rub in. That said my infant son was never burned and this product performed well. I just couldn’t get over the chalky residue on my hands and skin after putting it on my son. It was very difficult to wash off. (Makes since though since your supposed to wear it while sweating or in the water)
Very thick

I genrally love Aveeno products. So when I found that they have a sunscreen, I had to check it out for myself. I love the squeezeable bottle, it helps it get most of the bearing product out. But genreally, it is a thick formula, which I guess is good for being protectorate of the sun. It's pretty great, I've even used it on my face. But since it has a very thick forumal I do not recommond it for people with gernally oily, acne prone skin.
Very thick formula, tough to blend

This item is great ! No Smell and natural my son is allergic to other brands and this one is good to go. The only con is it is really thick and hard to spread on the skin it will leave your baby with white sunscreen but I just let it go and my little man had a ball in the water while having his skin protected
