“The SPF is thicker than some when applying but absorbs in well and this means you can really see where you have applied it and then a couple more rubs it absorbs in. fair skinned family members don't burn when using this and with others they have.”
Hi Paula,
Thank you so much for your really helpful review!
You make a great point about the thicker texture actually being useful. Being able to see where you have applied it is a brilliant way to make sure no patches are missed, which is something a lot of thinner sun creams do not offer.
We are really pleased to hear that your fair-skinned family members are not burning with the Scent Free Sun Cream SPF30 when they have with other brands. That kind of comparison is exactly the reassurance other customers with sensitive, fair skin will find really useful.

“Incredibly happy with the Green People factor 30 scent-free sun cream. I love that it doesn't have a scent and that it sinks so beautifully into the skin (though you have to rub it to get it in, but once it's in, it's in!). I have pale, sensitive skin and feel fully confident when I'm wearing this sun protection. No nasties in the formulation is also a huge win/selling point for me.”
Hi Celia,
Thank you so much for this brilliant review!
You are absolutely right that it does need a good rub, but that is the nature of a formula packed with nourishing ingredients rather than lightweight synthetic fillers. The payoff is that it really does become part of the skin rather than sitting on top of it.
Knowing that you feel fully confident wearing the Scent Free Sun Cream SPF30 on your pale, sensitive skin is exactly the reassurance we want every customer to feel.
We hope it continues to be your trusted companion in the sun!

“In short, loved using this. Little hard to rub im but I’ve tried a few other mineral formulas and this is by far my favourite. Great protection on a very hot holiday!”
Hi Abi,
Thank you so much for your lovely review!
The slightly thicker texture is down to our skin-first approach. We pack in nourishing ingredients alongside the protection, which does make it a little harder to rub in than a lighter formula. Warming it between your fingers and patting rather than rubbing can help with absorption if you find it useful.
Great protection on a very hot holiday is exactly what we set out to deliver. We hope it comes with you on many more!

“I have used this sun cream for a number of years now. I suffered badly from prickly heat which made any exposure to the sun a problem. My wife suggested l try this new brand and it was perfect from day 1.”
Hi,
Thank you so much for your lovely review!
Perfect from day one after years of suffering with prickly heat - what a result! And a special mention to your wife for the recommendation, she clearly knows what she is talking about.
Prickly heat is so often triggered by petrochemicals, ethyl alcohol and pore-clogging ingredients that are common in conventional sun creams. By leaving all of those out of the Scent Free Sun Cream SPF30, we give reactive skin a real chance to stay comfortable in the sun. We are so glad it has made such a difference for you over the years.

Hi John,
Thank you for your honest feedback.
We are sorry to hear the Scent Free Sun Cream SPF30 has not been working well for you. The formula is deliberately richer than many conventional sun creams as we build our SPFs as skin-first products, but it should not feel uncomfortably greasy or leave a persistent film.
A tip that can help with application is to warm the cream between your fingers before applying and pat rather than rub it into the skin, which can help it absorb more effectively.
If the issue persists, please do reach out to our customer care team at organic@greenpeople.co.uk and they will be happy to help or suggest an alternative that may suit your skin better.

Hi Ashley,
Thank you so much for your review and for giving the Scent Free Sun Cream SPF30 a try!
We are really pleased to hear it worked so well for you on your first use.
We completely understand the price point can feel steep for a sun cream. What we can say is that the formula is built around genuinely clean, high quality ingredients without any of the cheap fillers or synthetic chemicals that bring costs down in conventional sun creams.
It is also worth signing up to our newsletter at greenpeople.co.uk for exclusive offers and discounts if you have not already!

“This goes on really nicely and lasts all day. Won't be using anything else from now on. Well worth paying a little more especially if you have sensitive skin.”
Hi Carmen,
Thank you so much for your lovely review!
You make such a valid point about the price being worth it for sensitive skin. When you have skin that reacts to so many products, finding one that works is genuinely priceless - and the cost of repeatedly trying products that cause reactions, irritation or breakouts soon adds up too. We always try to make sure every penny spent with us feels justified by the quality and care that goes into what you are putting on your skin.
We hope it continues to look after you and your skin for a very long time!
