Product Review - Burt’s Bees Chemical Free Sunscreen with Hemp Seed Oil
1 06 2008I am one of those unfortunate souls whose skin is so pale, that with sun exposure, I burn to a vibrant red before fading to a bluish-white once more. How I wish I had darker skin!
As I do not, I am forced to slather sunscreen on myself daily, and have been recently using Burt’s Bees Chemical Free Sunscreen with Hemp Seed Oil.
I like the faint smell of the sunscreen, and appreciate that the product lives up to its promises of being non-greasy, as well as the fact that it’s chemical free and phthalate free.
My only complaint is that you really have to rub the sunscreen in really well, or it leaves white streaks on your skin that flake off and look like deodorant crust, and if you don’t rub it in all the way, it will get white streaks on your clothes too. Definitely not enjoyable.
I give it a 7/10.
I might buy this again, unless I could find a natural sunscreen that didn’t leave white streaks/chunks on my skin. Do you have any recommendations for something better???
Hope you’re all enjoying this lovely Chicago weather! (or whatever weather you have where you are!)
Thanks for this review, I have never tried Burt’s Bees. Too bad about the white streaks, I have tried many hemp products but sunscreen as of yet, although I won’t be trying this one,lol!
Yeah…not my favorite! Would love to hear more about your favorite products!
i would try some of the aubrey organics sunscreens. they’re definitely one of the cleanest lines on the market. though not all of their products are great, i’ve heard the sunscreen works pretty well.
