5.0 out of 5 starsamazing sun protection with a tip/warning
Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2020
When it comes to sunblocks, Banana Boat is a brand that I can trust and rely on as the best protection against sun for my children. I've used them ever since my children were babies and they never had any problem with it.
One time, I bought a cheap, genetic CVS brand instead to save money and learned the lesson the hard way because it stung my children's eyes so badly that they couldn't use it. Ever since then, I never even looked at any other brand other than Banana Boat.
They are a bit pricey compared to other brands but then you get what you pay for and you are paying for the quality. Don't compromise your children's safety and comfort for couple of dollars in savings.
I now buy them during the winter when the prices come down since I know I will need them in the summer.
So shop around for the best price and stock them up when you find them in lower price, especially during the off season if you know you will be spending time at the pool or beach in upcoming summer.
This particular is 100 SPF, which is great but it doesn't indicate "tear + sting free" label so I would only use them in the body and not on the face. I recommend to purchase the Banana Boat Kids spray separately for the face protection. Hope this was useful... and if it was, please click on the helpful button below. Thank you!

4.0 out of 5 starsMom's review for kids in a pool for 2 hours. Spf 50
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 11, 2020
I'm a mom to two 7 year olds. We've been swimming nearly everyday for 2 hours. This sunscreen spreads easily. I had used the copper tone[spelling that way on case it edits the name, I'm trying to give an honest comparison] sport 70 before this one and the kids porcelain skin did not brown. As soon as we switched to this one their skin immediately had a tan. They never turned red or burned but they definitely have a medium tan now so I'm not repurchasing it, I'm going back to a thicker cream and higher spf. I did notice even after letting it sit for 20 minutes it still would run once they were in the water. The copper tone left an oil sheen and repelled the water, this is a lotion does not do that, it also left a film on the water. The smell is nice, it isn't pungent or anything. It doesn't smell like a tourist or anything and it is not noteworthy for being pleasant. It's just a bland sunscreen smell which to me is a good thing. I don't particularly want to smell like a coconut or something wild when I'm going for a swim. Who I would recommend this to is someone who is going to the beach or somewhere in the sun and they would like to have color but not burn. I'd reapply as it says though. If your skin is very fair I would go with a thicker cream and higher spf. If oily sunscreens break you out this would be a good option to try because it is a lotion and doesn't leave that oily feel behind. I hope this helps someone decide if this is the right product for them. The pump is nice for applying it.
