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.

It is not fragrance free!

It is not fragrance free. Please do not advertise your product as fragrance for you when it has lavender oil in it. I’m allergic to lavender oil!

Eh slight white cast and not a big fan of the scent

Bought it thinking it was the 30 and I am not a big fan. The smell is weird but not necessarily bad. I’m Latina and olive skinned and there is definitely a slight white cast compared to the 30. The only plus is that I have textured skin and the other one is more dewy so it can make me look greasy (but moisturized) . I’m still going to use it but so far the smell is not doing it for me .

Best body sunscreen on the market in my opinion

This is my go-to sunscreen. It doesn’t leave a white cast. It’s not super thick and chunky so it rubs in well and easily. I love the lavender scent, it’s super relaxing. It’s a little strong at first but fades. I have sensitive skin and I never have any problem when wearing it. I need barrier protection too because I have a chronic illness and my skin tends to be very sun sensitive. This works great so I don’t have to cover up in the sun all the time. I also love that I can skip regular lotion and just apply this if I’d like, it’s pretty moisturizing. I don’t use this as my facial spf, but rather for my body so I appreciate not having to apply two separate moisturizers. I only have three complaints. 1. I’d prefer if it were all mineral 2. I wish it came in a pump so I don’t have to keep opening and closing it when I apply 3. I need a bigger a size. Sunscreen should be worn daily after all.

TERRIBLE

Do not purchase this unless you want terrible skin. It’s super oily and disgusting and it left me with so many pimples and dark spots. I wish I could go back in time and throw this crap in the trash. I’m still trying to repair my skin and I’m in tears daily. Don’t buy this !!!! I’ve attached a before and after for reference

Don't recommend :/

Right when I put it on, I noticed there was a minimal whitecast due to the zinc oxide. After reapplying, the whitecast became more obvious on my face. During the 1st application, I would occasionally itch my face. However, it got much worse after I reapplied this sunscreen since the bottom half of my face became super itchy. By the time I got home and washed it off, my face was left with small bumps and appeared super dry / red. It seems like I’m not the only one dealing with these problems based on the previous reviews. You’re better off trying the 30 SPF or the kids version!

To Pill or Not To Pill

It has a really thick texture. I am fair skinned and I didn’t mind the white cast that others have mentioned but on my third use it started to pill really bad on my face. I only ever wear sunscreen on clean skin, so nothing was out of the ordinary, I had to wipe it off immediately because from my forehead down to my chin I looked like I was shedding. I do love the kids sunscreen though, so I may go back to that one.

Classic Mineral Sunscreen Problems

This is not my favorite sunscreen at all but for an affordable mineral sunscreen it’s be expected. It leaves a white cast and I have a light skin tone so it’s even more obvious on darker skin. If you are a makeup user it won’t work well under makeup. It doesn’t burn my eyes as much as other American sunscreens but still be very careful. I simply buy this one bc of the smell and packaging and the other one is far too low in spf.

It's really true, no white cast!

I’ve tried lots of sunscreens that promise no white cast and this is the only one where it’s true. And no greasy feeling either. I’m a white girl with quite pale skin so I definitely need to use sunscreen and I love this one!

Combo formula dissapoints

Love this brand and their original formula, but this combo formula did nothing but disappoint. Was unable to fully blend the lotion out, left a white cast and pilled severely. Returned this for the original!
