Customers say
Customers find this sunscreen effective, noting it doesn’t burn or sting their skin and works well under makeup. They appreciate its non-greasy formula that doesn’t make skin oily, and one customer mentions it performs well in sweaty conditions. Customers like the gel-like texture that rubs in well, and they appreciate that it’s odorless. While some customers consider it worth the price premium, others find it too expensive.

Doesn’t run, doesn’t drip, doesn’t smell, and provides great sun protection
I’ve got somewhat fair skin and am concerned about sun protection because my grandfather had skin cancer. Also, at my age I want to do whatever it takes to take care of myself to stay healthy.I’m one of those who absolutely dislikes putting creams and such on my face because I don’t like to have a greasy feeling. I’ve tried a very large number of other sunscreens in my lifetime and I’ve never liked them because they dripped, left my skin feeling oily, stung my eyes when I started sweating, and left my hands greasy and stinky too after I applied them.This Jack Black SPF 45 sunscreen is the complete opposite of what I’ve experienced all of my life. Wow. Didn’t think it was possible to protect your face from the harsh sun while still staying comfortable.I used it on a two-week trip to sunny, humid, and hot Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. I was surprised that I never had this run into my eyes and cause them to sting. I was well protected the whole time. I think I came back just a little more “tan” than before I left, but that’s good I suppose. This sunscreen protected me from burning and turning red, and my skin never got to the point where I started to peel.I always felt “normal” on my skin in that my skin didn’t smell or feel funny nor slick or greasy because of the product. It immediately absorbed into the skin and stayed there without running.I tried a little experiment this morning just before I want outside in the hot Arizona heat to work in the yard for a couple of hours:I first applied Jack Black Double-Duty Moisturizer on my face, and then I immediately lathered on a thick smear of this Jack Black SPF 45 Sunscreen on top of that just to see how things turned out. And to further add to the drama, I purposefully didn’t wash my hands after applying these on my face, ears, back of my neck, etc. Guess what: went on smoothly. Again, no sting in my eyes despite my heavy sweating. And my hands were perfectly dry and not greasy immediately after putting this on. I just rubbed them together for a few seconds and the mildly thick liquid sunscreen just seemingly disappeared into the palms of my hands.It’s a definite addition to my routine. I’ll be putting this on on top of my daily moisturizer when I plan on being in the sun extensively. A little goes a long way, so it’ll last and is worth the slight premium in price vs. generic/mainstream sunscreens you can buy in the store.

Great sunblock, doesn’t feel greasy, less likely to get in eyes and burn
Great sunblock, doesn’t feel greasy – even on teenagers. When my daughter started track, we tried many different brands of sunscreens and this is by far our favorite. It doesn’t feel greasy, nor is it drying, and works with both teenage combination skin and mature dry skin. The biggest problem with sunscreens is when you sweat they run into the eyes and burn. This one is much less likely to run into the eyes (rubs in and soaks in well), although if it does get into the eyes it will sting. We’ve now purchased 3 tubes of this one and use it for sport and water use (kayaking & swimming).

SPF Review From A Natural Redhead
I’m a natural redhead. This means I do not tan – almost biologically impossible for me to. Because I am extremely prone to burning, I have lived most of my life smelling like Coppertone or some other sunscreen. I’ve tried just about every kind on the market and have a high opinion of what I like and what I don’t. This one, I am neutral about. For the cost per ounce and the application feel, this isn’t anything to phone home about, but it is nice to toss into a bag for a day at the beach or to use on your face, neck, ears, lips, etc. while out running errands.No smell. This is a big one. I don’t understand why anyone would add fragrance to anything intended to be applied anywhere near the face, neck, etc. It is skin. I don’t need it to smell like coconuts. And many people with fair skin, who are the more prolific purchasers of sunscreen, also typically have sensitive skin. I’m please this doesn’t appear to have any added essential oils or masking fragrances.The application is ok. This is a lotion, which for the price point, I would have hoped it would have had a smoother application formulation. It is semi-thick, doesn’t leave a white cast, but does take a little effort to apply. I’m spoiled to watergel sunscreens, which this is not. Most everything I buy sunscreen-wise these days is Korean brands because they apply like a dream (immediately soaking into the skin, no white cast, and are often loaded with beneficial ingredients alongside sun protection). This is just your run of the mill, just ok sunscreen. It does the job of providing protection, but I wouldn’t consider it a luxury sunscreen product.Size. The bottle is ideal for tossing into my purse/bag. I reapply regularly to my face, neck, ears, and arms (openly exposed areas) when I’m out and about running errands.It seems to provide SPF protection. I haven’t experienced any pink or obvious reactions to the sun or any sort of sensitivity to the product itself. However, I likely won’t repurchase because there are equally as good sunscreens out there with the same SPF coverage, with a better texture, at a lower price point.

favorite face sunscreen ever!
i love how this product is oil free so itâs safe for my lash extensions. not greasy feeling at all and absorbs well, but still leaves my skin glowy. my skin also never breaks out when i use it

Great for sensitive skin
I was so bummed out when my local Sephora stopped selling this because this is the only sunscreen that actually works for my skin. Thankfully, I can get this here!

Excellent Non Greasy Sunscreen. Highly recommend.
Excellent feeling (non greasy) light sun protection. I am very sensitive to oily sun screen and hate when it runs and when it is just a mess when you sweat. This Jack Black sun guard is amazing. It is fairly light going on and feels like a nice lotion but high end. There is no oil or grease feeling at all and best of all when you sweat it doesn’t bead and run it is a fantastic sun screen. It is very pricey but for what they have done, I have honestly never had a product of this type meet let alone exceed my expectations. So while pricey it is definitely worth it if you value a light non greasy sunscreen.

Super cómodo, no es grasoso ni muy brlloso, pero tampoco reseca. Es hibrido asi que tiene un ligero color blanco sobre la piel. Indetectable para pieles claras o morenas claras.

Einfach der beste Sunscreen. Entwickele gewöhnlich sehr schnell glänzende Haut, kaum ein mattierendes Mittel hilft. Der Sunscreen ist nicht nur fettfrei, er hinterlässt auch so gut wie keinen Film, das Gesicht fühlt sich immer “positiv eher trocken” an (statt fettig glänzend). Und der Preis ist einfach sensationell für die Menge! Lässt sich auch prima anwenden und verteilen, vielleicht wurde die Formel etwas angepasst.

Firstly, I had intended to compare this as an almost like for like with the Australian Gold SPF 30 (made in USA?!?) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/r.html?C=148LYIXGS6DN9&K=XVVFZDS7FC27&M=urn:rtn:msg:20180730083500e6e32634845b4cfab1c9818aff50p0eu&R=AD45WYF02Y3&T=C&U=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2Fdp%2FB00CQIRYQM%3Fref_%3Dpe_3187911_248764861_302_E_DDE_dt_1&H=QXSGXGFUDQBMIYRYIN3VXRSO0B0A&ref_=pe_3187911_248764861_302_E_DDE_dt_1, except you can’t use that on your face (seriously, I accidentally put it on first day and it felt like I’d rubbed chillies all over my face after 2 minutes). The difference was clear after one use.Where to start, my 7 year old and I usually go to the coast of Northern Italy, which involves lots of beach time in and out of the sea, along with not taking any shade with us. Last year after using run of the mill sunscreens, that claim to be for active use, resulted in the worst sunburn I’ve had in 30 odd years.The sunscreen I would’ve risked trying to get through customs, because at first glance it looks like it could get through, I’d decided to book a hold bag this year any way, because of other things we were taking (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/r.html?C=38VLIQ1P7ES9H&K=XVVFZDS7FC27&M=urn:rtn:msg:20180730011931fb299490193244a69f450b371180p0eu&R=AD45WYF02Y3&T=C&U=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2Fgp%2Fproduct%2FB00L46SOWK%2Fref%3Dpe_3187911_189395841_pd_te_s_wl_ti%2F261-7512067-3605849%3F_encoding%3DUTF8%26pd_rd_i%3DB00L46SOWK%26pd_rd_r%3DYD7MDB9E2FH8H56B8563%26pd_rd_w%3DP6gIK%26pd_rd_wg%3DwlXqn&H=02X0YLPRQA62UYQ8AMZUADPIAGIA&ref_=pe_3187911_189395841_pd_te_s_wl_ti). For two people running around for a week, I’d suggest 2 bottles and split them in to three smaller 80ml, either squeezable or round, containers, due to the thick, creamy consistency.Application is good first thing, it really sinks into your skin, doesn’t leave any white cast, and if you were just using this on face, arms and legs to wander lasts an incredible amount of time (80 minutes in the sea, 120 minutes on dry land). Second application with any moisture (sea water, perspiration, etc.) is a little harder not to get a touch of white cast, although, not an issue for me (it could work in with more massage or after a towel off). It seems to bond onto the 1st layer, and cover in, which if you’re out in the seas swimming or surfing, you definitely want that coverage. In the water, I could see beading of water on my daughter’s face and my arms, gave me a reassuring sign that we were covered.These are the aspects the Australian Gold let us down, reapplication and sense of security in the water.On the parts that I’d used the Jack Black, I got an even light bronze glow by the third day and felt more moisturised, with the gold, it was a much deeper bronze.Allowing for differences in SPF, one seems designed for sunbathing and lounging with the odd dip, the other for active beach lovers.The aromas, Aussie is a lovely tropical scent that really smells nice on, Mr Black very neutral, almost imperceptible.My daughter liked the Aussie, for aroma reasons I’m guessing, and it seems it kept up with her running around.For sense of security, and all around cover, if buy nothing but this year after year. It truly is a great product with broad spectrum defence against UV. I’d recommend to anyone who works outdoors all year round.

Es excelente, luego luego sientes la protección. No deja grasoso ni blanco, y el aroma es super sutil y fresco.

I use this as my daily moisturiser, and it’s amazing. I have very oily skin and this is so light, it feels like a water/gel consistency once you apply to the skin. It leaves a nice sheen which looks healthy, not greasy. High SPF, no fragrance, no irritants, plenty of high quality antioxidants to boost skins functions and UV protection. You also get a lot of product.
