Perfect
 September 17, 2012
"Love this product. This is the second summer that I've used it for my kids and I and we have never burned. Goes on easy and eventually rubs in clear. Doesn't leave a white residue, which I like. I also like using fragrance free on our skin - hard to find in stores."

Great product!
 August 6, 2012
"This product is so thick! You don't have to use a lot of it, because it goes a long way. I burn very easily, but I didn't burn when I used this! I like the fact that it is natural. I threw the harmful sunscreen products I had in the garbage. I ended up getting a few of these, so I won't run out."

Great Waterproof Sunscreen!
 December 14, 2011
"I got this for a family trip to Hawaii and I fell in love! It is waterproof but is easy to rub in unlike some waterproof brands. I would put it on before running or swimming. It worked well and kept my skin protected. I just wish it came in a bigger bottle. Great buy!"

Excellent Sunscreen
 September 26, 2011
"I am a rural mail carrier and have my arm sticking out in the sun for four hours every day, so I need some serious protection from the damaging rays. I have tried many different brands of sunscreen, and Nature's Gate Aqua Block SPF 50 is by far the best. It is thick and takes a little work to get covered, but the effort is repaid by not having to reapply halfway through my route. I never get burnt when I use this! And the smell is excellent."

Great sunscreen
 September 20, 2011
"We live in Hawaii and really needed a sunscreen that worked well and didn't have all the added chemical crud that so many of them do. This one is thick and protects us from long exposure to the sun. We still reapply when we come out of the water, but it is effective at being water resistant. Overall great value and product. Will definitely purchase again."

Good product

"I like the more natural qualitites of this product & it is VERY effective. Only drawback is it goes on REALLY white and takes a bit to get it rubbed in. But it works. No icky smell or feel."

Good sunblock
 July 8, 2010
"This sunblock is nice and thick. Good coverage and like that it has mineral block in it as well as sunscreens. If you sweat heavily, you will need to reapply if you are in the sun all day. Light smell."

Sunburn Free!
 May 4, 2010
"I used this product on myself and my 3 yr old twins while on a week-long vacation in Florida and it worked beautifully. No sunburns and I loved knowing I was applying a safe product on myself and my family. I'm ordering another for the summer!"

Long-lasting, mineral/chemical blend
 January 18, 2010
"I picked this up because 1) Nature's Gate makes breathable products, 2) it's a great value, and 3) it has a high amount of zinc oxide compared to many other sunscreens. This absorbs well, lasts long. Too strong for my face, but great for my body. Would like to see this in a 100% mineral version sometime. Excellent scent."

Not a daily sunscreen
 September 12, 2009
"I gave this product a high rating because I'm pretty sure it's good for a day at the beach. However, I wanted to use it as a daily sunscreen, but it was too thick and sticky for that purpose. I got this particular sunscreen because of the higher spf. But I think I have to go for a lower spf to use daily if I dont want stickiness or streaking."

Great Sunblock!
 July 6, 2009
"I have used this product for 3 years and love it! It goes on smooth and doesn't leave that oily residue feeling. I wear it everyday on my hands and arms. I like how the formula incorporates natural extracts. It also has a very pleasant scent and doesn't wear off like other sunblocks."
