## Description

When your plans for the day involve soaking up some rays, you need protection that keeps up with every adventure. That’s why we created Banana Boat Sunscreen Mineral* Lotion SPF 50—an effective and hydrating mineral sunscreen* specially formulated for active days under the sun. This lightweight mineral sunscreen lotion* delivers broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection in an easy-to-apply lotion. Whether you’re at the beach, on a hike or just enjoying the outdoors, this zinc oxide sunscreen provides reliable coverage that blends in across skin tones and leaves skin feeling soft. Made with a skin-friendly zinc sunscreen active ingredient, this sunblock is designed to be sweat and water resistant (80 minutes). It’s formulated with vitamin E and contains no parabens or fragrances. Strong, mineral* protection from Banana Boat sunscreen lotion means you can focus on having fun in the sun—not worrying about your sunscreen. *FDA active ingredients are mineral.

Review: Better than many expensive options - I am shocked at how good this mineral sunscreen is. I am a mineral sunscreen junkie and have so many expensive ($50+ a bottle) high end versions. I have fair/light combo skin and hate greasy, pasty sunscreen. This mineral sunscreen rubs in quickly and isn’t greasy. It out performs MANY high end sunscreens. I love that it has 19% zinc (substantial compared to some others) and is waterproof 80 mins. One thing I found interesting (and awesome) is that iron oxide is listed (last) in the ingredients, which means it has a *very* slight tint. Iron oxide is shown to help block visible/blue light which can be important to people like me with discoloration. This sunscreen is pretty robust for a “basic” drugstore brand. The color is more of a (very pale yellow almost?) off white, not stark white, I think due to the iron oxide listed. I wouldn’t call it tinted, but at least it’s better than paper white sunscreen. In comparison to other thick, heavy, greasy stark white mineral sunscreens, this one is a breeze to rub in! I cannot find anywhere if this sunscreen is nano or non nano, so that’s something to take into consideration if you care, which I really do not. If nano sunscreen is a big concern of yours I would reach out to banana boat to confirm. I purchased this so I don’t have to use my expensive face mineral sunscreens on my body but shockingly this may end up being my new favorite mineral face sunscreen. It isn’t drying on me personally (combo skin leaning oily) and it also wore fine under makeup. The finish is a soft satin after dried down. I’m pretty blown away! It preformed perfect at the pool, even in humidity. I will most likely repurchase. I’m glad to not have to repurchase the more expensive MDSolar science mineral sunscreen I was previously using on my body. I purchased with my own money no paid review! 10 out of 10 for the value and performance from me!!!
Review: Mineral sunscreen that works well. - This is a good mineral sunscreen that is free from some of those toxic chemicals in other sunscreens. It works great and even after the pool, we didn't reapply and nobody got burned. It is a tannish color which is a little helpful for blending into skin, but it still looks a little whitish if you don't rub it in enough. it soaks in too. The tube is big enough to last a while. Overall recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Effective and Safe for Sensitive Skin
*by H***G on August 20, 2026*

This is a high-quality mineral sunblock that does a fantastic job of preventing sunburns. I love that it doesn't have a harsh scent and is affordable compared to other specialty brands. The formula is supposed to be non-greasy, which is true, but it does stay a little sticky on the skin for a while. You also have to deal with a bit of a white residue, but that is typical for a good zinc oxide sunscreen.
