3rd Rock Essentials | 3rd Rock Sunblock® SunScreen Lotion SPF 35 | All Natural Organic Zinc Aromatherapeutic Sunscreen for Sun Protection | All Natural Personal Care (3.3 oz | Single)

It took a little bit of time for me to review this sunscreen. Initially, i can say I did not love it. The feel is different than any other sunscreen I have tried, and I did not particularly like the smell. The feel to me is more like putting on a layer, instead of it completely absorbing into the skin like most ore sunscreens. I have been using it now for over a month, typically when I run or swim in the San Diego sun, or have to spend a long day at a swim meet (I am a part-time swim coach). I have gotten used to the smell which reminds me of Palmers Cocoa Butter. And I absolutely LOVE that this product is natural and does indeed work to protect my skin. I am not an 'everyday sunscreen fanatic' by any means, even though I probably should be due to the amount of time I spend outside in the California sun. I am trying to use it more often and avoid looking like my leather couch. I am very pleased and even purchased a second bottle for my daughter.

Sticky, greasy and does not wash off. I have washed my hands and used hand sanitizer so many times and my hands are sticky, greasy and gross. Throwing this out

I just bought my second bottle of 3rd Rock Sunblock this summer. It really works - using it, I didn't get sunburned at daylong summer swim meets in Houston! It stays put (out of my eyes and mouth) for running and cycling. It doesn't make my allergic skin red or itchy. It has a subtle herbal fragrance that doesn't leave me gasping for an inhaler. It isn't sticky. It washes off with soap and water. The only drawback I have found is that you need to give it a minute (probably less than a minute...) to warm on your skin for the whitish cast to disappear. So, you really do need to put it on before you play in the sun or risk looking a bit silly for a minute. This is a great product!

Works great...hours of coverage in the extreme Florida heat during cycling! It feels healthy on your skin. However the scent wasn't nice after sweating...smelled like the odor of tanning bed sun screen.

A little goes a long, long way. This is a must have for harsh sun. The container is slim so it is easy to pack for travel, and it lasts a long time. The lotion is thick and easily applied by rubbing it in with your fingers/hand. I have used it on my head and it does not sting if it gets into your eyes. For my nose, cheeks and ears I just swipe the inside of the cap for a tiny amount of lotion to cover the area. It does go a long way.

I don’t like the fragrance . I hate most fragrances anyway. I use Zinc Oxide cream instead. Really awful how sooo many companies add fragrance ( & usually a lot!) & how many people wear them.

I have used this product all summer, and I never got a sunburn. Usually I feel guilty when I put on sunblock and then go swimming in a natural body of water. But with 3rd Rock, I know I am not harming the environment. I used it both in and out of water, and it was a success. It doesn't feel greasy, and I rubbed it in well enough that I couldn't see it on my skin. It is definitely worth it.

VERY HEAVY AND STICKY.... I feel like my skin is under paraffin. Doesn't work for me and my skin!
