Honest Sunscreen SPF 30
what parents are saying
One of the only sunscreens I found that was safe for babies under 6months. I felt safe applying it to my baby and it smelled ok for sunscreen. (Sep 25, 2014)

This non-toxic, non-whitening, non-nano mineral sunscreen has only one active sunscreen ingredient: zinc oxide. This baby-safe product is water resistant (40 minutes), vegetarian, biodegradable, unscented, and provides broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) protection. Added bonus? A handful of Honest products (including sunscreen) are now available at Target if you can’t wait for it to be shipped or don’t subscribe to their bundles.

A good clean sunscreen Oct 20, 2020

I love Honest Company products but this wasn’t my favorite. The sunscreen is thick when applying and leaves a heavy white residue on your skin. I definitely don’t recommend this product. Feb 13, 2019

It is tricky to dispense without a mess when its warm outside, tends to squirt out when warm. And it stains clothes, but IT WORKS, and thats why it stays in my beach bag regardless of the drawbacks. Jan 02, 2019

We like some Honest products, but found this sunscreen to be greasy and hard to apply. Oil leaks from the lid and it always seems to make a mess. Don't recommend! Jan 23, 2018

Bought this for my toddler. Wanted something more on the organic side. Something that wasn’t so greasy. I would buy this again Dec 08, 2017

Great ingredients, but it is super thick and hard to rub in. Does not feel good on the skin. Oct 23, 2017

Does not spread easily which is a pain on a child who just wants to be done - love the safe ingredients but we didn't use it more than once and bought others. Oct 19, 2017

Wanted to love this sunscreen, but we hated the consistency. It was very thick and hard to rub into squirmy baby. Aug 15, 2017

I will never buy this sunscreen again. It feels like rubbing butter on your face, it's so greasy. Jul 16, 2017

Do not like the smell. Doesn't rub in well Jun 28, 2017

Very very greasy and shiny. It feels like you are rubbing pure coconut oil all over your skin. It doesn't feel like it provides much coverage. May 05, 2017

Love this product! My son has shown a sensitivity to all sunscreens and this is the only one that doesn't make him break out in a rash! Apr 29, 2017

Works great! Apr 17, 2017

I don't know if they ended up changing their formula (I hope so), but I got terribly burnt using this sunscreen. I apply every hour and liberally and was fried! Feb 18, 2017

For some reason my daughter got a little sunburn with this product. I am religious about applying and reapplying. I have heard similar complaints from other parents. Apr 26, 2016

It is too greasy and oily! Mar 11, 2016

Also, so very greasy (like the Babyganics one too). Felt like baby was going to fry, not be protected from the sun. Jan 30, 2016
- Kelly A.

Never had an issue with it. My son never got sun burn and he was a sun virgin this past summer. I applied probably every 45 minutes bc he was only 9 mos at the time. Definitely will use it next year! Dec 11, 2015

All natural and it smells fantastic! Nov 28, 2015

Works great for us. We use it every day and don't have any issues (despite the recent backlash) Aug 05, 2015

Great to use because of its safety - no chemicals. However the smell is not the best, it rubs off on the stroller and therefore more laundry and does not apply easily. Jul 20, 2015

I love their sunscreen. I use it on my toddler since he was 3 months old, and my husband who is very pale and sun burns very easily ! Aug 25, 2017

Love honest products. Price effective if you bundle through the website. I prefer this SPF 30 to the newer SPF 50 because this one rubs in well. Jul 06, 2017

No, on Honest (that is often not too honest with their ingredients). We used this sunscreen before putting it on a babe and thank god we did. My hubs and I both suffered serious sunburns from it! Jun 10, 2017

Living at the beach, we have tried just about every sunscreen you can think of. This one was the worst we have tried! It did not prevent any sunburns. Hard to apply - didn't rub in easily. Apr 17, 2017

Honest wins again with an all natural SPF for the entire family.It does go on like a white paste but once rubbed in doesn't show much.If that bothers you, then you won't like it. safe & Eco-friendly! Dec 09, 2016

I don't feel this does as well as most kids sunscreens at protecting from sunburn. My kids never burn and did when using this. Oct 05, 2016

Has a pretty weird scent... Got a lot of negative comments when I wore it around other moms :) Aug 23, 2016

This gave my daughter a rash. It's super thick, turned my daughter white, and would not rub in. The smell is really awful as well. May 17, 2016

This has been the only thing my daughter doesn't squirm when I put it on. It runs in easily and my daughter doesn't get burned when I use it Feb 21, 2016

Eh it's okay it feels chalky and a little greasy going on but I felt comfortable with it because of the lack of chemicals Jan 29, 2016
- Kendall H.

love how thick it is - helps me to know where I've put on and makes me feel like it works! never had an issue with burning. Use on my super fair skin and my son's Aug 19, 2015

Most moisturizing sunscreen out there. Our baby was covered in eczema and it improved so much once we started using this. I didn't realize how drying even other mineral or baby sunscreens could be! Jul 19, 2015

My favorite sunscreen to use on my eczema prone daughter! Protects her from harmful rays and doesn't break her out. Jul 15, 2015

Super creamy sunscreen. Great ingredients as it does not include the "benzones" but instead use zinc oxide which is the best barrier against UVs. It also does not go on as white as other brands. Jul 13, 2015

Good quality and good coverage. I like that it doesn't totally turn my kid white (due to the zinc) and is easy to blend in. Sep 25, 2013
- Amelia B.
Charlotte, North Carolina
We just bought this a few weeks back. It's thick, but spreads well. I like that the ingredients are all safe and non-toxic. About the same price point $12 +/- as other "safe" sunscreens on the marke Jul 30, 2013
