Has anyone used this as a sunscreen?

No I have not, but I use it as deodorant, lotion, to take off make-up, you can even mix it with baking soda and a few other ingredients to make toothpaste!!!

I do everyday. I let the moisturizer absorb completely and the apply the sunscreen. After that I use a CC cream over it. The CC cream also has sunblock. I have not been burned on my face so I believe the integrity of the sunscreen is still good. I have combination skin. I do reapply the sunblock in the late afternoon if I am going to be out in the sun again.

Yes, it does, & it's pretty good, too! I went to the dermatologist after using this product daily for over a year, & she could tell that I was using sunscreen...something I didn't start using until my mid 30's, & only with this product. Enjoy! :)

As its statement, it should be used as a night cream. There should be no chance for you to see sunshine. Don't recommend use the chemical under daylight to induce further sun spit in my opinion.

I wouldn't get this for sunscreen. It is the micro zinc oxide. Meaning it is so fine it crosses over through your skin and is absorbed. Which makes it unsafe. The spf is in zinc oxide, but you are better off getting the "non-nano" kind which is the larger particles.

I've not tried but I think you could do so. I put a little extra moisturizer in mine sometimes as I am 60 but my teen loves it as is. What we did find is that there is more than one color in this product, may want to order a trial pack they offer with several products to see which one works best for you next time. Recently found this was the 'BEST' sunscreen you could want for your face during a visit to Florida!!

I would not recommend it...I live in a hot dry climate...and even though this sunscreen is supposed to not clog your pores..it does have an oily feel...so with you have oily skin and the humidity...I probably wouldnt use it...however since I bought this I tried Obagi sunscreen and like it much better..you should look into it. THE Obagi is not greasy and absorbs nicely into your skin. I also have Rosacea...thus am ultra sensitive and this does not break me out.

Never tried it. Tends to make the skin a bit dry. Will try it tonight followed by eye cream and if you want I'll let you know.

I use it on a regular basis. I work outdoors and generally find reapplying every 4 hours works for me. This seems to hold up well to sweat, in my opinion; I have never been swimming while wearing it. As for the tanning, I haven't encountered that issue by applying it relatively generously (about the amount that one would use when apply a moisturizing lotion - turns me nice and white and takes a bit of working in to the skin... then the white fades). It's my favorite 'healthy' sunscreen - the consistency is so much nicer than a lot of the others!

I've used it all over my face and neck and it seems to provide protection from the sun. This is unlike any sunscreen products I've used as it actually has a very mild fragrance.

I mix it with coconut oil to make my own sunscreen. It seems to be fine enough to spread on the face, smooth and soft. One more thing I might add is the mixture I make looks whitish when on my darker skin color. It doesn't bother me because I want protection from the sun with a natural product.

I haven't. Tried those brands. I liked it much better the the burts bees brand. It went on well and soaked in really quickly. My baby has very fair skin. we were out all summer and no burns :)

I haven't. But according to what I read, it can be used for skin and hair care once liquified. Claims to be an excellent moisturizer. Might give it a try.

I've been putting it on my face for months... no problem. It's thick & white though... so don't expect it to go on clear. This the REAL DEAL sunscreen. I'm an avid fisherman.

Never heard of it. We have a screen protector over our screen and I don't think sunscreen can melt plastic, but I've never gotten any on my camera.

I have used this with much success. I went snorkeling in the ocean last year and had regular moisturizer on my face with SPF 30 and this on the rest of my body. My face got sunburned but my body did not. I have been using this for years and love it. You do need to rub it in well because you can see a little white residue if you don't.
