Oasis Sun SPF 40 Sport is a superior, water and sweat-resistant sunscreen.  The latest generation ingredients offer the most superior, completely photo-stable sun protection available on the market today, with an extremely low allergy risk.

We designed it using the harsh sunlight and UV conditions of New Zealand as a testing ground.  

So, Oasis Sun SPF 40 Sport does a tough job but we've kept the ingredients as gentle as possible and made sure it's also kind to your skin.  In fact, we've formulated this sunscreen specifically for sensitive skin.

My go-to

My family have used Oasis sunscreen for years now. This sunscreen is waterproof, reef-safe and only uses ingredients that are 100% safe for me and my family.

Tbh my husband hates it, because it's hard to rub in. My kids always complain about looking like ghosts!

But I love it because I can see where they have missed with sun protection!

I'll keep repurchasing this one.

Tips: Give it time to sink in.

White cast, but worth it

I always feel extremely well protected with this physical sunscreen. Seeing the white zinc particles on my skin might not be aesthetically pleasing, but it lets me know that I will not suffer sunburn. The white cast effect is present in any zinc-based formula that is SPF 40 or higher, so it's not unique to Oasis by any means.

The only downside is that because the formula dries quite quickly (which I usually love) it doesn't allow much time for you to vigorously rub in the cream to eliminate the whiteness.

It really is sweat-proof though, and the bonus of being water proof makes it an absolute essential when I'm swimming or at the beach.

But let's just talk about the smell for a minute. Oasis sunscreens across the board have a distinct smell. I found it really icky at first, but am used to it now. I would much rather have a sunblock smell and know I'm getting enough sun protection, than have fragrance and photosensitive essential oils added which can cause major issues with both the quality of the product and delicate skin.

Another Super Hit

Oasis Sun SPF 40 Dry-Feel Sport Sunscreen is another super hit product for me. I am already a big fan of almost all of their product range and not a single product has disappointed me. All of my family is using Oasis SPF 30 sunscreen from last 2 years and we just love it and cannot think of using any other sunscreen, so thought to try out this one as well and it is super amazing. We now prefer to use it on face for maximum protection. Also it makes a good base for me before my make up. It is non-greasy and does not have a fragrance which is great. My kids hate all other sunscreens except for this one. It does not cause any itch to skin when we are out in harsh sun. There are so many reasons to love it and it has become our handbags essential.

Sunscreen must-have

This is our family favourite - particularly being water resistant for 2hrs. The whole family can use this, including my son who has minor eczema issues from time-to-time (mostly from fragranced products). SPF40 is a good level of protection, and while we use this (and any) sunscreen in conjunction with hats and making sure skin isn't exposed too much in the sun, our pale skin hasn't been burnt while using this sunscreen.

It's a non-greasy formula, so I don't find it overly transfers to clothing or leaves an oily mess or stains. It absorbs well, though the kids look great rocking a more 'zinc' look while it absorbs. For a less 'shiny' look, and if I'm also wearing makeup, I tend to use their primer over top of this sunscreen, so foundation sits nicely on the skin.

Being natural and vegan, and none of the nasty chemicals it's also safe for the holidays at the beach as there's no polluting the water with the sunscreen. Great for Fiji etc.

I really like all the Oasis products, especially their sunscreens - this Sports version is the favourite though with its water and sweat resistance.

Tips: - Closer to summer there's often sun care deals - so pays to keep an eye on Oasis' website/FB for specials - Their Aloe Vera gel is a perfect after sun pairing with this product in summer

Sensitive Skin Saviours

Another great product from Oasis. I’m a firm believer in their fantastic Rhino Repair cream being an all-rounder for any lump, bump or rash. Oasis products were actually recommended to me by other BR reviewers in a forum one day. I’ve never looked back.

I have incredibly sensitive skin so I have to be very cautious with the products I use. After researching Oasis there were some key stand-out points that leapt at me through my computer screen. Firstly, and most appealing for me was that they support the Eczema Association New Zealand. Secondly, their ingredients. Where possible their ingredients are all natural. Obviously sunscreens need certain additional products in them to be effective, however they’re still all organic ingredients. A perfect example of the quality of the natural products used in their formulas is within the Oasis Sun SPF 40 Sport – “South Island artesian NZ water”. Not just standard aqua, pure NZ artesian water. Thirdly, Oasis products are not tested on animals and are New Zealand made.

Leading up to summer I was searching for sunscreens and that’s when I spotted that Oasis has a vast range of sunscreen products. After having such success with the Rhino Repair, I went into the pharmacy and purchased the Oasis Sun SPF 40 Sport and the SPF 30 original formula. Both products have been fabulous over the hot, sticky summer months. The SPF 40 sport really steps up to its sweat resistance and the 2 hour waterproof ability. The best thing is it dries quickly, and, its non-oily formula meant that once the kids got wet they didn’t rub sunscreen in their eyes. There is nothing worse than sweating on a hot day and your sunscreen runs into your eyes, it’s so painful and awful to remove. I’m really loving the sun smart tips on the back of the tube; cover up, stay in the shade where possible and peak burn times. Fabulous. It’s also almost completely odourless, just a slight zinc-like smell. There is only one downside I came across with the SPF 40 sport, it leaves your skin quite white. This will be a part of the protection it offers – waterproof and dry-touch, however it’s not exactly attractive on the face. You’re left looking very ghostly and pale. Small price to pay in my books though for a really effective product that protects and is gentle on skin. A definite must-have product for anyone venturing outdoors this summer.

Skin is something we only have one of in our lifetime, so finding safe, effective products to protect it is so important. A product like the Oasis Sun SPF 40 Sport doesn’t come along every day. Make the investment for your skin today. “Sensitive skin saviours” – Oasis.

Tips: If applying to the face, do so in a mirror to ensure you've rubbed as much in as possible to avoid looking too 'ghostly'.
