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!

Hi Janet,
Thank you so much for your fantastic review!
Prickly heat is so often triggered by petrochemicals, ethyl alcohol and pore-clogging ingredients that are standard in most mainstream sun creams. By removing all of those from our formula and replacing them with clean, natural alternatives, we give reactive skin a genuine chance to stay calm and comfortable in the sun.
Knowing that you are now able to enjoy the sunshine without that misery is exactly the outcome we hoped for and we hope every future sunny day is just as prickly heat free!

“Doesn't feel sticky or gloopy, and there's no nasty smell. Does a great job of protecting me while doing general outdoorsy things (gardening, walking the dog etc)”
Hi Jennifer,
Thank you so much for your lovely review!
We love that the Scent Free Sun Cream SPF30 is looking after you through all the important things in life - the gardening, the dog walks and everything in between. Sun protection should not just be for beach holidays; everyday outdoor activities in the UK add up to significant UV exposure over time, and it is brilliant to hear that you are reaching for it as part of your daily outdoor routine.
Non-sticky, no unpleasant smell and genuinely protective. That really is everything a sun cream should be and we are so pleased it is working so well for you!

“I’m 27w pregnant and have just retuned from 12 days in Greece. On holiday I was only using the Scent Free SPF30, and I’m very impressed with how good it was in terms of how well it protected me from sunburn, the way it felt on my skin and how waterproof it is
At first I wasn’t sure the bottle would last the whole holiday but I soon discovered I didn’t need so much lotion per application! The cream does go on quite thick and doesn’t seem to absorb quickly, however, that wasn’t the case! You can spread the cream in quite generously and still have good coverage ☀️
I bought Green People as I’ve been told mineral SPF is best during pregnancy and I have a tendency to get prickly heat on my chest/ back- this did NOT happen. Yay
I’d recommend this cream to people with sensitive skin and consider it to be worth the price because it works and actually last longer than you think (I was reapplying 2-3 times a day!) ⭐️
Added bonus: I have an even, golden tan with no peeling of dehydrated skin, which is always great after a holiday in 27 degrees heat!”
Hi,
Thank you so much for this absolutely brilliant and detailed review!
First of all, congratulations on your pregnancy - 27 weeks and 12 days in Greece, you are doing wonderfully! You were absolutely right to look for a cleaner SPF during pregnancy. Our Scent Free Sun Cream SPF30 uses a combination of non-nano Zinc Oxide and the new generation of UV filters, which are among the safest and most environmentally responsible available. Completely free from the older chemical filters like oxybenzone and octinoxate that are linked to hormone disruption.
Knowing that you came back with no sunburn, no prickly heat on your chest and back, a beautiful even golden tan and well-hydrated skin after 27 degrees in Greece is honestly one of the most brilliant real-world testimonials we could ever ask for.
Thank you so much for your recommendation and we hope the rest of your pregnancy is wonderful!

Hi Gillian,
Not being able to wear sun cream for years because of hives and itching is such a miserable situation to be in, particularly when protection from the sun is so important. Knowing that you can now sit in the sun comfortably and safely is exactly the kind of outcome that makes everything we do worthwhile.
Reactions like yours are so often caused by the synthetic fragrances and petrochemicals that are standard in most sun creams. Removing all of those and formulating purely with gentle, clean ingredients is at the heart of our Scent Free range, and knowing that it has made such a life-changing difference for you is genuinely one of the most rewarding things we could ever hear.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and we hope you enjoy many, many more sunny days ahead!

Hi Lynn,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review!
Being the only product that helps with your prickly heat is the highest possible endorsement and we are so grateful to hear it.
Our Scent Free formula avoids all of those problematic ingredients in mainstream sun cream, which is why so many prickly heat sufferers find such a dramatic difference when they make the switch.
We hope you continue to enjoy every sunny day without worry!

Hi Kathryn,
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Pleasant to use and effective, with no nasty chemicals. That is everything a sun cream should be and so rarely is.
We are really glad you are happy and we hope it continues to look after your skin beautifully!
