Wow!

I love this sunscreen and can’t live without it before when I used conventional sunscreen I always got burnt I have very light skin and work outside all day everyday so it is important I am protecting myself properly this product was a game changer it has no smell leaves my skin feeling hydrated and I have not once gotten sunburnt since wearing this I have also noticed my skin that never tans manages to get a little bit of a tan when I wear this product usually I just go from white to red this will be a staple in my life from now on! It can leave the skin feeling a little oily and immediately after applying my hands are a little slimy but it’s worth is for the amazing protection and the hydration it gives my skin

Like other sunscreen but better

While this product does run into your eyes at times and stings like a moto, it's the best longer wearing sunscreen I've used! I fou d using powder where possible helps to limit the oilly residue it can leave and I still get the same protection .

Have handed sample tunes to freinds because I rate this stuff highly!

Tips: When using it during the day use some bronzer or the likes in a powder form to help limit the oily residue

It's alright - Conquer is better

Having first used the Conquer version of Skinnies and loving it, when I saw some of the SPF 30 Sungel on special for half price I jumped at the opportunity. I figured it would be a lighter version and therefore made more sense for everyday use, rather than the running and tramping I used conquer for.

I loved the products small size, easy to pack in your handbag and apply whenever you need, or top up as required. I love that the product goes a long way, as there is no water added, you only need a pea sized amount for your whole face and neck.

What I did find though was that this product seemed more oily, which as a person who has quite oily skin does make me more conscious of how I look when I'm out and about. I found myself wiping the shine off my forehead, which presumably means I'm rubbing off the sunscreen too - so not that protected from the sun afterall.

I never got burnt wearing it, and my skin never reacted to it - which on both counts is more than what I can say for a lot of other brands, but I don't think i'll be buying this one over Conquer anytime soon.

Tips: The product can separate so you need to shake the bottle before use. Wash your hands afterwards.

Spreadable but oily

I love the ‘little goes a long way’ idea, and indeed it does spread very easily across the skin. However, I never want to risk sunburn because I didn’t use enough product so I still try and use a decent amount of this in the summer. Furthermore, it still wipes off after I’ve been swimming or sweating so needs to be reapplied anyway.

It stings my eyes a little bit, but nearly every sunscreen has that issue for me. It also makes my skin quite oily. If you like the glazed donut look that is currently popular then you will probably enjoy the aesthetic of this product, but personally I wasn’t a fan.

I will still repurchase the tiny little tubes they have - 5 or 7 ml I think - because I pop them in my various bags for emergency sunblock top ups when I don’t have my preferred sunscreen available.

A little goes a long way

I had read some great reviews about this product so decided to give it a whirl. However, similar to other sunscreens this makes my face very oily. Works great for the rest of the body. I'd recommend this product for multiple reasons as it is reef safe, provides great protection from the sun & even though it appears pricey it balances out by lasting longer. I need to find something else for my face as the oiliness caused breakouts, so no go for my face.

Skinnies sungel

Great sun protection, and a little goes a long way. Just found that it runs into eyes, and really burns. Also very oily, and make up doesn’t sit well on top op the sunblock.

Didn’t love this product

Bought after recommendation from a friend. It was reasonably pricey compared to other sunscreens. Used quite one bottle which I quite liked and repurchased for an overseas trip. Used on an extremely hot day in intense sun, was somewhere with not a lot of shelter so reapplied often but unfortunately got very very burnt.

A great, clear sunscreen that is an eco option

Skinnies sungel is like a sunscreen concentrate - it does not have excess water added and a little goes a long way. It has a slight light brown/yellow colour, but goes in the skin clear, so you don’t get any pastiness. You use a pea sized blob per body area, so you don’t need a lot. It has a tiny bit of a silky-type feel - not greasy, more like a body oil feel. Your skin is left with a slight sheen which looks lovely, and your skin feels nicely moisturised. Totally effective as a sunscreen - I’ve never been burned while using this and I have very fair skin. The 100ml tube lasted me a whole summer.

Love it

I got this years ago when it first came out and loved it then. Finally bought it for this summer and a little bit really does go a long way. It’s not sticky like other sunscreens where I have to wash my hands immediately after. It’s super smooth and soft. Love it.

Very thick and sticky

Tried this upon recommendations and I did not like it at all. The sunscreen is very think and when rubbing in it gets very oily which is hard to remove off your hands. It sat on top of my skin the entire time but due to the stickyness the sand stuck everywhere and i had to scrub my legs etc when getting home to remove the sand and sunscreen. Also we could see ourselves getting burnt within the first 30mins of being in the afternoon sun which is very abnormal us me.
