Oh My Bod! Body Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50

This sunscreen lotion works as described. It goes on nicely and stays on while I’m in the ocean. It has a nice feel to it.

I usually use Supergoup! Play on my face, and it's great! But, its finish is on the shiny side. I have dry skin and eventhough Supergoop! Play is heavy and "greasy" it is one of the only sunscreens I've found that does not leave my skin dry, especially around the nose. I love it - no dryness, no sting on face, and is fine around eye area but not in it (no lids & undereyes). It burns my eyes if it travels too close or gets in my actual eyes. That being said, I wanted to find a sunscreen that hit the same marks as Supergoop! Play but was less "greasy" feeling. I went looking for sunscreens that did not sting eyes and that had great reviews. I found this one. I was still not sure if this product would fit the bill in addressing hydration for a dehydrated skin girlie like myself. I read from the reviews here that it dried quickly and was not "greasy." Sounds good to most, but it made me hesitant. Since my skin is so dry, I've never been able to find a cream based moisturizer of any kind that dried quickly and did not produce that shine on my face but was not drying... Oh my goodness! This sunscreen is near perfect! OK, so it absolutely does not burn around my eyes at all. I have been applying it on my lids, undereyes, and corners. I've rubbed my eyes with it on multiple times, and... there is no stinging! So, ✔️ on criterion one! Secondly and, for me, just as importantly, it does not accentuate any dry patches on my face. It does, in fact, hydrate & protect my skin from dehydration. ✔️ And the final test, the reason I began searching for a new sunscreen, it... does... not... shine! It feels like I have a moisturizer on my face which is necessary for my dry skin. Without some semblance of a barrier keeping my moisture in the product would be useless for me. But! It is thin. It gives skin-like finish, and goes great over my skincare and under my makeup. I have been foregoing the application of a dedicated primer and substituting this suncreen in its place. If you have tried the NYX Marshmellow primer, the feel of this sunscreen is similar. ✔️ The only downside I have noticed is that while this cream smells good from the bottle and when first applying it, the smell changes as it dries down. It does smell like sunscreen. It's not overwhelming, but it is there.

Will keep purchasing. The sunscreen has a nice texture and doesn’t sting the eyes. It goes on smoothly and is not sticky. There is no white cast. I like that it is gentle on my sensitive skin.

I bought this because it was highly rated in the 2024 Consumer Reports sunscreen reviews and costs a lot less than La Roche Posay Anthelios 60 Melt In Sunscreen Milk, which is my all-time favorite. Oh My Bod SPF 50 actually delivered SPF 55 in Consumer Reports' tests; whereas the vast majority of sunscreens they tested were significantly less their advertised SPF. For those who are interested, the best performer was Coppertone Water Babies SPF 50, which tested higher, at 64 SPF. Oh My Bod passes the smell test. The scent is barely detectable and not unpleasant. The Oh My Bod feels a little greasy to me, and it's noticeably shiny on my face. I have used Coppertone Water Babies as well, and it feels heavy, sticky and greasy, and it has a distinct odor, so it's an easy choice to use Oh My Bod over that. I realize this is very much a personal preference. I know there are sunscreens that are developed specifically for the face, but the actual performance of those products is pretty poor, unfortunately. Bottom line: I would buy Oh My Bod again because sun protection is foremost, but I wish it felt better.

I read that this lotion is very highly rated for its sun protection by a well known and highly regarded testing company so I decided to try it. It goes on quickly and easily and has a very light fragrance which quickly dissipates. I haven't had it long enough to decide how well it works but I am confident that it will function at least as well as other lotions in its category. There is very little noticeable residue left on the kin after application.

I read about this sunscreen on Consumer Reports, which rated it very highly for effectivness. Love it. Goes on smoothly, no white cast, no obvious odor and feels good on my skin. Reasonably priced, too. Highly recommend.

Nice product…….very lightweight and not greasy……quick application….fast absorption…..feels good
