How does this sunblock do while in the water? Does it stay on, or does it rinse off or require frequent application?

Yes it stays on well as it is thick but light and fluffy. Use sparingly as it goes far. Used for years.

Yes it works great in water! Use sparingly as a little goes a long way. I have used for years on kids and adults.

It stays on pretty well. It is pretty thick. I reapply when getting out of water just to be safe.

I'm the only one using it. If I leave it on too long (through several showers) my skin gets dry underneath, but that's all.

I live near the beach and frequently have mine on when I swim in the ocean. I have not had any problems.

Yes, as far as sunproofing is concerned- I think I would spray it with the sunblock and then with a waterproof spray on top - just to be on the safe side. I used mine on a cover for a hot tub and it has worked well. I get more damage from sun than rain- especially in California these days!

It's not waterproof, but it still stays on pretty well. It does prevent tanning.

Yes, if you use it as directed, it should keep you from tanning. You have to reapply it every two hours while you are outside. You also need to reapply after you get out of the pool or after you have sweated a lot.

The water doesn't seem to be as much of an issue as movement. I have not had much luck with it staying on with or without the shower. It is good for a daily application, but you should expect to use additional tape or perhaps glue, which I have not yet tried. My application runs the length of my leg at an angle from mid thigh to my lower calf. It is not fully stretched, but just gently pulled and supposed to train my body to remove fuild from my surgical leg. :-(

We used it in saltwater and just rinsed it afterword, let it sun dry and all is well. It did not move too much, but we were underwater so we did not shake it a lot. It would have been nice to have it a little longer, but other than that it was fine.

NO!!!! I used this today in the pool and it had a spot that was no longer sticking which mean water got in it and probably washed away the medicine..sucks b/c I just put it on this morning. It did stay on fine in the shower though but NOT in the pool!

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.

I used strictly while sunbathing...it did leave residue on swimsuit but washed out well.

yes, I only use mine when out in the water so I don't lose my sunglasses. It floats! As easy to get off as it is to put on. I would hazard a guess that if you were pulling it on and off daily, the ends might get stretched out an no longer hold to glasses securely. I did a mudrun obstacle course with this on my sunglasses, they didn't get any damage, and hanging around my neck I could clean off some mud and keep on going.

hi, it can leave a little bit of a white residue. usually sinks in and goes away. I do mix it with a dab of foundation/bronzer when applying to my face. I believe all physical sunblocks will leave a little white. It is not sticky and can leave my skin a little dry. I have super sensitive skin and chemical sunblocks are not an option for me. Ive tried everything and this is the only one I like.

It stays on pretty well...it has straps that attach together to fit around your head. I've never had any issues with it staying put. :-)

Yes and no. I know, odd way to answer but I have found that this product holds well with infrequent washing. So it does hold up to getting wet, but I'm guessing not so well on a bathingsuit due to longterm submersion. Hope this helps.
