Burns eyes
I am sad to say it burns eyes. The old formula did not. This one does. My eyes are burning so bad. I can’t even keep them open to read a book. I see the trick now. Bottle reads won’t run into eyes, not won’t sting eyes.

Tears free sunscreen
Perfect for my little ones- busy at sports, this one holds sweat and tears! It does require you to apply with patience otherwise they are white ghosts until it fully absorbs but no tears and they do sometimes wiggle so it goes everywhere lol Easy to wash off and does its job protecting their kids skin nicely from the vicious sun - I would recommend!

Easy squeeze bottle
These bottles are easy to squeeze. They aren’t too thin or cheap but still a durable plastic bottle. The lotion is easy to shake to the top for a smooth squeeze. The sunscreen isn’t overly thick. I would call it somewhere between medium to lightweight. It provides good protection as long as it’s applied before sun exposure. It rubs into the skin easily. Recommend.

Works well to prevent sunburn and stays on while working.
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
This sunscreen is great! I've worked outside in New Mexico sun for the past few years and this is a life saver. Goes on evenly and doesn't come off while I'm working in the heat.
