“I have rosacea and this suncream is super gentle, I use it every day. It is matte finish so I can wear without make up and it hasn't caused more spots etc by clogging pores. Quite expensive but as it's only for my face and it's so hard to find anything suitable for rosacea it's worth it.”

“I bought this after having read about other chemical sunscreens being banned in certain countries because of the damage they were doing to coral. I then discovered that these chemicals can also react with your sun and skin, potentially causing skin damage so I set about researching a better, safer option. This one came out in the top three of a few reviews so I decided to give it a go. I think the price is good but the bottle style isn't my favourite. It's a solid bottle with a pump action meaning I think there's going to be a lot of wasted product towards the end of the bottle. You also won't get any warning you're near the end and so you'll suddenly run out. The texture is a little heavy for me - I'm used to a lighter, quick-drying product but it's not so greasy that I'm put off using it and it certainly doesn't leave the chalky white residue that other mineral based products do. So, if the bottle/packaging was different (a tube, for instance) I would have given four stars. If the product itself had a slightly lighter texture, it would have got the full five stars.”
Thank you for your review.
Our pump bottles contain an inner piston that rises up as the product is pumped out. This is moulded to be an exact fit with the base of the pump to ensure that no product is wasted. A good trick to find out how much product is left is to shine a light beneath the base so it can show a clear line of how much remains in the bottle.
In regards to the texture, it may be beneficial to you to exfoliate first and use tapping motions to help the product absorb. We will however pass on your feedback.

“Wondered if it would not be as effective because organic / natural etc but it does the job - I wear it every day in summer. It also feels really nice on the skin - not too greasy. Really like it and will buy again.”
“It's really heavy on skin and leaves white marks making my whole face white. Tried it both with and without make-up but it doesn't feel nice on skin either way.”
We are very sorry to hear that you have had issues with our Sun Lotion SPF30.
Green People’s ethics are to be as natural and as highly organically certified as possible. In our Sun lotions we use 3 different Sun filters and one of them have a particularly white pigment.
We use this ingredient because it is highly effective & safe for not only human use but also aquatic life, (there are many other filters that are easier to apply however not safe for aquatic life, hence the use of it in our Sun Lotion).
If you do find that the Sun Lotion does not fully absorb into the skin, we recommend tapping the skin gently after rubbing the lotion in, this helps it absorb further into the skin.
It can also be an issue if you have very dry skin as the dead skin cells stop the lotion (any lotion) from getting through to the living skin cells below. In this case we would recommend the above but also to exfoliate to remove the dead skin cells.
