KiNesys SPF30 Zinc Sunscreen Ointment, 3oz

I know some people are unhappy with how long this lasts for the price. I am the opposite, but then again I only use this on my face and neck. I checked my order history. I purchased this on August 10 and as of March 11, I'm only halfway through the jar. I wear this on my face everyday. I purchased it because of the high zinc oxide content and I will do anything to prevent premature aging. I will wear it until it runs out but not sure if I'll purchase it again. It's hard to wear because any strand of hair will immediately get stuck on my face. I do use a matte face powder at the end of my routine to mitigate the stickiness. However, despite how thick and heavy this sunscreen is, I have never broken out or felt my skin was congested. Coconut oil is one of the top ingredients in this sunscreen and I would say it feels exactly like putting coconut oil on your face. It's solid at room temperature and you really have to rub the product with your fingers to get it to melt into a reasonable consistency that can spread easily onto your face.

So the idea here is that a whole lot of the sunscreens turn out to have a pretty significant amount of carcinogenic chemicals, and this one is quite a bit lower than that. My other obvious concern is, given that it doesn't have those chemicals how well does it work. Well I've used it 10 times and have not been burned yet. FYI, I'm very white and bald. It's also reasonably easy to rub it in without looking like a ghost, despite it being very zinc oxide heavy.If they come out next year and say everything in there does actually cause cancer or a third arm to grow out of your back, then yeah I'll revise the review.

Currently using Badger spf30 and its leaves a lot of zinc/white on the face unless you rub in quite a bit. Kinesys SPF 30 Zinc Ointment takes less rubbing and not too heavy. I like the product. I wish it came in a smaller container for travel use.

Goes on a bit white but rubs in well. I like the scent it has. Works great and love that it doesn't have anything that will likely give me cancer!

I reviewed various sunscreens on the Environmental Working Group website and finally decided on this particular one after reading the Amazon reviews. I have not been disappointed after a week of using it on my face, neck, hands, and arms for regular dog walks and various outings. (note: I use a different sunscreen on my legs, etc., when opting for shorts)Pros:-- a little goes a long way-- my skin does not feel clogged-- no white film of zinc when the ointment is rubbed in thoroughly.Cons:-- price, but since a little goes a long way I'm pleased (and healthy skin is worth it)Other brands of similar quality have been a disappointment and felt heavy, greasy, and left that unflattering white film of zinc.

Love this sunscreen - use it mainly for my face - it's quite heavy. Very moisturizing and very, very high EWG rating.

nice

Very thick and somewhat difficult to wash off BUT wow does it do its job! Excellent protection.
