User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be used for adults and children
Answer:	Our whole family uses it. Everyone loves how it smells!
Question:	Does it leave a white cast
Answer:	It does leave a white cast when you first put it on, but it then blends pretty well. If there is any cast after blending, it is truly very minor.
Question:	Does this stain clothes or sting the eyes? Is it safe for a 6 month old baby
Answer:	I started using it on my son when he was 6 months old. Never had any clothes stained and he never experienced eye stinging.
Question:	Why is there a bpa warning on this sunscreen? Does it contain bpa
Answer:	I have done extensive research on sunscreen with lots of trial and error. This is, hands down, the safest and most effective sunscreen on the market (if used properly). It specifically says "BPA free" (along with parabens, etc...) in terms of product ingredients. All plastic tubes will have some chemical (some studies suggest non BPA chemicals can be even more harmful) that will leach especially when heated. This is likely why there is a reminder on the bottle to keep it out of heat or direct sun. You cannot avoid this with any sunscreen. This is a great sunscreen and I trust it on my kids. But, it has to be applied correctly, and often, in the summer - just like any sunscreen. Hope this helps.

Our Story

With a team of physicians & scientists, Thinkbaby & Thinksport lead in the usage of safe materials for consumer products. We don’t wait for materials to make headlines in order to make a change. We continue to expand our products to offer alternatives to existing products on the market. Our efforts are energized by working with leading child advocacy partners & like-minded individuals seeking alternative products. We approach each product with the same criteria: safe, functional, & sustainable.

UVA & UVB Broad-Spectrum

Consumers have been led to believe that ultra-high SPF numbers like 70 and 100 provide much more protection than SPF 30. This is False. SPF 30 provides 97% protection from UVB and SPF 100 provides 99% coverage for UVB. We tell folks if you look at the back of the tube and you see a bunch of words you don’t recognize, you probably don’t want to put that on your skin. It is important that you’re using a truly Broad-spectrum formula that covers UVA and UVB.

Mineral Based Formula

Chemical sunscreens make up the majority of the market unfortunately. They are both cheap and apply clear. Mineral based solutions can cause some amount of whitening during use and are also more expensive. But at what cost is it cheaper. Some mineral base formulations have also taken to using clear zinc or nano particle sized zinc or titanium. We recommend sourcing a non-nano zinc oxide solution. There is just not enough data on the ability for nano particles getting into the blood stream. As such, it is better to embrace the Precautionary principle.

Water Resistant

There are now three levels of water resistance. Not water resistant, water resistant (40 minutes) and water resistant (80 minutes). We have all become used to seeing words like sweatproof or waterproof. There are now very specific tests. Keep in mind, that if you’re at the beach or pool that you’ll need to reapply after being in the water. And to achieve the SPF factor of your sunscreen you have to reapply every two hours. One application does not keep you at SPF 50 or whatever is on the sunscreen label. And you should be using about 1oz to cover an adult body.

Tips for Application

1. Be sure to apply all areas that will be exposed to sunlight, including behind the ears, neck, hands, feet, and scalp 15 minutes before sun exposure.
2. Reapply after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, immediately after towel drying, at least every 2 hours.
3. While the sunscreen applies very easily, we recommend not spreading it too thin. Otherwise you will decrease the effectiveness of the sunscreen.

Why Sunscreen?

The majority of sunscreens currently on the market are full of questionable ingredients and known carcinogens. Simply looking at the ingredients you'll quickly realize you don't recognize any of them. Many existing sunscreens have been brought to market with little concern for their safety. Not only do ingredients in sunscreen interact with skin, but data shows after application of lotions, some of the same chemicals can be detected in the bloodstream. Most people wear sunscreen to reduce the chance of developing cancer, so why apply something that could potentially increase this risk? This question has unfortunately left many people moving away from using sunscreen at all.

Thinkbaby & Thinksport employ the precautionary principle when choosing the materials to work with.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this sunscreen get on or stain clothing
Answer:	I had no trouble with it rubbing in. It did not stain clothing either.
Question:	Is this fine for daily use
Answer:	texture is right but there is a smell when it dries
Question:	What is Expiration date For this item currently
Answer:	Mine is May 2021
Question:	What’s the difference between the baby formula and the regular babo sunscreen
Answer:	This product worked better on my niece’s skin than did the regular Babo sunscreen; it very well may have something to do with the creams formula, because it is a much lighter formula than is the regular. The regular caused her eczema to flare up; whereas the Baby Babo Sunscreen did not. Hope this helps!

User questions & answers

Question:	When I shake the bottle the contents sound solid. It still sprays but seems almost like rotten milk, does this mean it’s gone bad
Answer:	No, it's not bad. That is why shaking first is so important. It mixes ingredients together so that they aren't 'lumpy' and comes out in fine light spray once shook well. The can even says on it shake well for 5 seconds.
Question:	Is it reef safe
Answer:	The problem we had was that some areas of reef don’t allow aerosol spray. So we could put it on before
Question:	Does this sunscreen rub in without making really white? Also does it make you look shiny
Answer:	Its like a spray zinc and sprays on white. I shake the can and rub it in but there is just a hint of white. No shiny. It stays on even when I get out of the pool. Strong stuff.
Question:	Do you need to rub this in
Answer:	Yes, definitely! I didn't rub it in the first time and got sunburned. The second time around I did rub it in and re-applied. I got sunburned again, but less so. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend this product. I'd get the TerraSport Spray (SPF 15) http://amzn.to/295hTX6 or Goddess Garden Kids (SPF 30) spray instead http://amzn.to/297xPuY I am a scuba diver and cyclist so I spend a lot of time in the sun. I threw away the remainder of my bottle of Babo and won't be re-ordering.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does baby have to be at least 6 months old to use this? I have a 6 week old. Thanks
Answer:	Actually the American Academy of Pediatrics changed their recommendations right before the summer of 2013. They said that mineral sunscreens (that use regular zinc oxide) are safe for babies and should be used on newborns as well if the sun cannot be avoided.
Question:	is it paba free
Answer:	I would hope so however, they don't advertise as paba free on the tube. It's not in the ingredients. Listed ingredients are as follows: Active Sunscreen Ingredient: Non-Nano, Uncoated Zinc Oxide 18.75% Other Sunscreen Ingredients: *Helianthus Annuus (Organic Sunflower) Oil, *Cera Alba (Organic Beeswax), CO2 Extracts of *Hippophae Rhamnoides (Organic Seabuckthorn), and *Calenduls Officinalis (Organic Calendula), *Anthemis Nobilis (Organic Chamomile) Essential Oil, and Tocopherol (Sunflower Vitamin E). * = Certified Organic
Question:	How strong is the scent
Answer:	Let's put it like this: even if you pressed your nose against your skin it still wouldn't be a powerful scent...the sunscreen lightly smells like the wonderful ingredients! Although, after about 10 minutes the scent is faint and eventually fades. It has also made our skin look/feel healthier.
Question:	What age is this recommended for? 'Babies' up to what age? Thanks
Answer:	I don't know the recommended ages. However I have many times used it myself when my grandson and I are out and I have forgotten my sunscreen. It appears white until you rub it in. To me, it rubs in quite nicely and seems to stay on for a while. I haven't noticed it rubbing off onto my clothes once it is rubbed on properly. It has a very distinctive scent, which my grandson doesn't seem to mind. I don't notice the scent once it is rubbed in. My daughter has taken him swimming and the sunscreen appears to stay on in the water. So far I would recommend this sunscreen.

User questions & answers

Question:	What percent of zinc is in this sunblock
Answer:	Mine says zinc oxide 20%
Question:	Does this go on white or clear
Answer:	It has a white tint, but rubs in much more quickly and easily than other mineral sunscreens I have tried.

Answer:	I can’t remember but the adult SPF 30 kind DOES smell like coconut. I liked it and smelled natural.
Question:	Is this safe for the reefs
Answer:	Not sure, but it is a mineral sunscreen that's hard to apply and leaves a very noticeable white cast. It's also sticky and balls up product. Never buying this ever again.

Answer:	It's white, it does rub in leaving a hint of white.But my daughter is allergic to other sunseen so it a small price to pay. Works very well and goes far.
Question:	So is the sunscreen a clear liquid? Like it won't leave my face white
Answer:	It's not a "clear liquid," the lotion is white...however it doesn't leave too much white on your face. Compared with other zinc oxide sunscreens it rubs in very well.
Question:	Is this formula not water-resistant at all
Answer:	No, it's not water-resistant. I checked on the manufacturer site and they advertise that it can be washed off with water should there be any reactions. I hope this helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	How does it hold up in the heat? Will it get watery
Answer:	I've used it in Hawaii at 80 degrees F and never had any issues with it getting watery. It has held up well.
Question:	Is this Non-nano
Answer:	I’m not sure because of the homosalate at 10%. I think homosalate at 15% is a possible skin irritant. I have never had a problem with this sunscreen though, never burned or had skin irritations. I tend to have very sensitive skin. Hope this helped!
Question:	would you recommend this for facial use on sensitive or acne-prone skin? thanks
Answer:	Yes. SunBum is reasonably non-greasy. We used it on our faces while we were in Jamaica fo 11 days. It never bothered our skin, yet it prevented us from burning the entire time. We applied it twice a day, faithfully, including to our faces. My wife likes the scent, and the bottle was convenient to carry along in her small beach bag.
Question:	Is this biodegradable? We plan to wear this sunscreen when snorkeling around a reef if it's safe
Answer:	As of July 2018, the description says that it is Oxybenzone free. I think that is the reef damaging chemical (definitely hormone disruptor) so this product should be safe. Here is a list of chemicals to be avoided: (website included at the bottom for more information) The HEL LIST includes: Any form of microplastic sphere or beads. Any nanoparticles like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Oxybenzone Octinoxate 4-methylbenzylidene camphor Octocrylene Para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) Methyl Paraben Ethyl Paraben Propyl Paraben Butyl Paraben Benzyl Paraben Triclosan http://www.haereticus-lab.org/protect-land-sea-certification/

Product description

THE DRUNK ELEPHANT DIFFERENCE

With a mission to deliver clinically-effective, clean skincare products formulated with both cutting-edge synthetic and natural ingredients, Drunk Elephant knows that every ingredient should directly benefit the health of your skin or the safety of the formulation.

UMBRA SHEER PHYSICAL DAILY DEFENSE SPF 30

It's difficult to formulate a physical sunscreen without using chemical screens or silicones, but Drunk Elephant has done just that. This physical sunscreen is formulated without any chemical sunscreens, which can be sensitizing and not as beneficial to skin as the naturally-derived alternative, zinc oxide. Umbra is non-irritating, non-sensitizing and is suitable for all skin tones and types, including the most sensitive.

NO FRAGRANCE

After carefully balancing the best ingredients available, Drunk Elephant doesn’t have to add anything to mask their natural scents. When you smell their products, you will likely detect nothing but a glycerin base with slight hints of Marula oil, Zinc Oxide, Thermal Mud, Fruit Enzymes, and Vitamins for a refreshing and reassuring scent.

BREAK THE CYCLE

Your skin is left vulnerable with the overuse of harsh exfoliates, chemical peels, expensive laser treatments, Botox abuse, layered foundations and powders, and chemically-laden beauty creams. There’s nothing wrong with an occasional beneficial beauty splurge here and there (when appropriate), but it can be a vicious cycle that is hard to stop.

COMMITTED TO CLEAN

Drunk Elephant is committed to using only clean ingredients that either directly benefit the skin’s health, or support the integrity and effectiveness of their formulas. You’ll never find the “Suspicious 6” (Essential Oils, Drying Alcohols, Silicones, Chemical Sc

• DAILY DEFENSE SPF 30. Umbra is a physical daily sunscreen loaded with potent antioxidants while delivering essential moisture and helps minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving your skin looking healthy and youthful
• MADE IN THE USA. Drunk Elephant doesn’t take shortcuts or compromise ingredients to save money. They are hands-on and will stay true to their ethos. Their products are designed, tested, and made in the United States
• NO QUESTION IN QUALITY. A routine is only as good as its worst product, and a product is only as good as its worst ingredient. Drunk Elephant is dedicated to your internal health and external skin health; "If there's any DOUBT, it's OUT.”
• SENSITIVE VS. SENSITIZED. When skin is exposed to irritants and sensitizers, damage can be imperceptible and cumulative, leaving it in a reactive mode. "Sensitive" skin is often just skin that has become sensitized over time by harsh additives
• UMBRA SHEER. A sheer physical sunscreen that delivers powerful broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection and helps aid in the prevention of free radical and oxidative damage as well as photoaging for a more youthful-looking complexion
