Effective Sun Protection with Natural Ingredients.
Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen combines beef tallow and zinc oxide to offer reliable protection against the sun. The texture is lightweight and absorbs well, leaving the skin feeling comfortable without a heavy sensation. It works for both the face and body and holds up well against water exposure. It is a practical choice for those seeking a sunscreen with a more natural formula.

Non-greasy, smooth and smells great!
Scent: Aloe & White Tea, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this lotion! Smells great! It is non-greasy and isn't heavy. I have it at my kitchen sink and it goes on so smooth after washing dishes. The moisture holds up well after applying.

So so
Scent: Lavender, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Smells amazing but the pump only dispenses such a small amount with each pump & it doesn’t retract quickly either.
