Sunscreen won’t spray
Style: SPF 50 Spray Mineral Sunscreen, Size: 4.5 Ounce (1 Pack)
Love the sunscreen but it literally stopped spraying after about 5 uses. There is a lot still left to use but the product won’t spray.

The awful smells keeps it from being five stars
Style: SPF 50 Lotion Mineral Sunscreen, Size: 3 Ounce (1 Pack)
I purchased two variants of this sunscreen - the 50 SPF lotion and the 33 SPF lotion. Despite the descriptions indicating that they have different scents, both seem to have the same scent, which is awful. One of the most important factors when purchasing a mineral sunscreen is the ease of application to the skin, and in my particular case, the ease of application to facial hair / a beard. I feel this sunscreen is lightweight and very easy to apply to the skin, including easy to apply to facial hair / a beard without stretching / pulling the skin. This makes it easy to wash off with a men's face wash. I feel the 33 SPF lotion is slightly more lightweight and easier to apply than the 50 SPF lotion. Another important factor when selecting a mineral sunscreen is the percentage of zinc oxide. This sunscreen meets the 20% or higher criteria, which makes it ideal for prolonged periods of exposed to UVA / UVB radiation. I would probably only recommend this sunscreen for incidental sun exposure; I am not sure how sweat resistant this sunscreen is being how lightweight it is and that it is not considered a sport sunscreen. I highly recommend and will continue to purchase.

Great sunscreen and great customer service!
Style: SPF 50 Spray Mineral Sunscreen, Size: 4.5 Ounce (1 Pack)
Really effective long lasting sunscreen without all the bad chemicals. Alcohol free, which I'm looking for in all lotions. Great product and even better customer service. I had a problem with one of my items and received a call from Aloe Up the same day. Support USA-family owned businesses.

Got burned
Our son used up the entire bottle during a day at the beach, reapplying every 1-2 hours, and still got quite burned.
