Recently, my dad had run out of his Shiseido sunscreen. Shiseido has really nice sunscreens (but they all contain prabens!!) So I’ve been looking around for a new paraben-free sunscreen for my dad. And I discovered Badger, a company that produces organic healthy personal care products. Their products are very affordable for an all organic produce. So I picked up their SPF 30+ Lightly Scented Sunscreen. I would love to try out more badger products in the future.

SMELL:
It has an herbal lavender smell. I actually like the fresh smell. Some people may not like the smell, if you don’t like it, badger has an unscented sunscreen.
TEXTURE/PERFORMANCE:

| RUB RUB RUB RUB!!!! |
When I squeezed it out, I noticed that there are some small beads of stuff. So I went online and did search about it, and the company stated that their natural sunscreens may contain small beads of shea or cocoa butter. If you look at the ingredient list, it does contain shea and cocoa butter.
After applying it on, my face appears whiter, so I had to keep on rubbing it until the whiteness goes away.
My face felt a bit greasy and sticky after the application. &Maybe because of its greasiness, it leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturizing. And it didn’t break me out yet which is a good thing.
Overall, because this sunscreen is organic, I feel very safe and protected putting it on my face. It smells good for my skin. I really like this sunscreen except the greasiness it leaves on my skin.
WATER RESISTANT:YES!
