Badger Biodegradable Reef Safe Sunscreen, SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen, 98% Organic Ingredients, Unscented, Water Resistant Adventure Sport Sun Cream, Travel Size 2.4 oz Tin, 2-Pack

I am always buying new sunscreens and trying to try to solve for getting myself to actually use it every day. I've really liked products from Elta MD, Babyganics, and, of course, Badger. My hot take: This is my go-to daily sunscreen. It meets 4.5/5 of my criteria. TL;DR My priorities with a sunscreen, in order of importance, are: 1. Adequate protection - at least SPF 30. I prefer SPF 50 though. 2. Mineral ingredients - zinc or titanium oxide. 3. Texture of the sunscreen - I'm fine with a little white cast, but I don't like chalkiness. 4. Convenience of application - so I'll actually use it. 5. Sustainability - I try to use less plastic and aerosol cans stress me out (inhalation, hard to recycle). Badger Sport Mineral Sunscreen Tin - SPF 40 / Badger Adventure Sport Mineral Sunscreen Tin - SPF 50 - Mineral ingredients: uncoated zinc oxide 25% - All natural ingredients and very safe for our Earth's waters. It's just the uncoated zinc oxide (active) and sunflower oil, beeswax, and sunflower vitamin E (inactives). No ingredient names I have to google. And 98% of ingredients are organic if you care about that (I don't really). - Protective SPF 40 and 50 available. Water resistant 80 mins. - Goes on easy once you've warmed it slightly either by rubbing the product onto your fingers or letting it sit in the sun for a couple minutes. - I can feel this sunscreen. They aren't kidding about using beeswax. This stuff is a bit sticky! However, I appreciate that I can physically feel if I've put enough product on different sections of my body. It takes a bit to absorb, but once it does, it's very moisturizing and feels nice. - Comes in an adorable metal tin that is so easy to reuse or recycle. It makes me think of Altoids tins and how some folks reuse those/create art with them. - Very compact, takes up almost on room. - Decent price at $5.62/oz. I paid $26.99 for a pack of two tins. Each tin contains 2.4 oz. of product. Cons: - Takes a little longer to apply. It's not always convenient/easy to get the product out of the tin. - If you're not used to the sticky sensation, it could throw you off. - You can get gunk inside the tin, which can be annoying to get out. In contrast, a bottle that's more sealed off wouldn't have this issue. - The tins are wrapped in a thin bit of plastic, so it's not a totally one-time-use plastic free experience.

I have an autoimmune disorder on top of having a sun sensitivity, so I need protection without it being toxic. As an ultra runner, I can attest that this stuff works great.

If you are old enough to remember life guards sitting with no umbrella protection, they always had a thick white ointment on their noses. That’s what this is. It’s serious sun protection. Use it if you wish to protect your skin.

Outstanding! Most sunscreens are very irritating to my eyes even if they don’t get into my eyes. Badger doesn’t bother my eyes AT ALL and it stays in place. It’s a balm so heavier feeling but I will never use anything else. I wear it every day and I’m outside a lot. No issues with sunburn.

I like this suncream because it is chemical-free and provides good hydration.
