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.

I wouldn't use it in place of sunscreen, if that's what you're asking. It will definitely wash off if you get in any kind of water. It will provide some extra sun protection for your face and chest though. I mainly use it to set my under eye concealer but I've occasionally use it my chest and neck as well.

I have been using this sunscreen for at least 10 years. It is wonderful. It is not tacky or sticky or oily, and it really works.Linda L.

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 personally use it before because I like my sunscreen to sit on top as it should to protect you from the sun. Hope that helps. By the way, I love this cream and I have my girlfriend hooked on it to. :-)

Nope I've been using it for the past 6 months it's done nothing, it didnt even combat the usual slight skin darkening I go through due to the Florida summer sun. Everyone is reacts differently but that's been my experience.

This is not a sunscreen at all. Just a moisturizer. It has a gradual self tanner in it.

I have not- I bought it to use as a beach towel. It is great for that but sorry I can't answer for other uses.

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 made this into sunscreen by melting beeswax, shae butter and coconut oil and then stirring in the zinc oxide. It goes on a little bit white, but once it melts into your skin, it does not look white. This is a great sunscreen for sensitive skin as well. Especially for those who have allergies to store-bought sunscreen.

I haven't, but I do use for at home spray tans. I'm starting to spray more family and friends and I am very pleased with it. The first one I ordered however, the pressure switch didn't work. We contacted the company and they shipped another one to me.

YES! Just be careful that it doesn't get in the eye like other sunscreens but I actually close my eyes and put it on like facial cream and love it!

I mixed mine into a homemade sunscreen bar and it is great. I do not have any problems using it on my face and it leaves no white residue on my skin.

I'm not going to say no because it will initially have a white cast, but not like using, say, zinc oxide. Rub it in very well and it will soak in after a bit. Hands down best sunscreen I've found. Wish I'd known about it sooner.

I've been using the EB5 for many years and don't believe it can be used as a sunscreen. You can call 1-800-683-2325 to get a direct answer.
