Summer is almost here, and the kids are all outside playing. Sunscreen is essential in battling the effects of the harsh Arizona sun. I’m always concerned about all of the chemicals that are in traditional sunscreens, but the organic sunscreens that we have tried have been sticky, thick, and/or ineffective for us.
The first thing I did when I received the Episencial Sunny Sunscreen was to smell it. It genuinely was fragrance free as stated. The sunscreen itself was light and creamy. It went on smoothly and felt more like a lotion than a sunscreen. It was quickly absorbed into the skin and did not leave a white, sticky residue. The most important part is that it worked. We were outside all day and didn’t even get pink. The only thing that could have been better is if this came in a spray form in addition to the lotion.

The milky texture creates a protective layer with no harsh chemicals and minimal white residue. It is fortified with organic green tea extract to prevent sun-damage. The organic sesame, safflower and avocado oils moisturize and nourish the skin. The beeswax and organic shea butter increase water resistance and sun protection without the use of petroleum or chemicals. Episencial Sunny Sunscreen is recommended by the EWG as a “safe” sunscreen.

I received a tube of Sunny Sunscreen for the purpose of an honest review. No other compensation was received. All opinions are my own.
