"Goes on rather thick and liable to leave your face with a white-ish tone. However, provides good protection for the face and neck, especially if you've got fair, freckly skin like me."
Katie, Dyserth
"I have yet to use this product as it's for an upcoming trip abroad. I was very pleased with the 3 for 2 multi buy offer and I'm looking forward to trying this face cream out in the summer heat of New Zealand. Very pleased to find a natural sunscreen with an spf 50. I'll review this product when I get back!"
Sarah, Brighton
"I recently used this product in France where it was 30 degrees. My skin is quite fair and I think it protected it quite well. The cream is quite thick and you do not need to use a lot.
It is scented which i wasen't sure about but decided it is ok and you do not notice when it is on."
anne, muddleton on sea
"I use this all over and it lasts for ages as I don't need to apply as great a quantity as I do with other suncreams. It stays on well generally, though if it is very hot I do find it slides off my face if I don't apply face powder over the top of it. Another major bonus is that you can put it in you"
Karen, Coventry
"This is the best natural sunscreen I've tried, and I've tried a lot! It does leave a very slight white sheen but it's hardly noticeable and not streaky or chalky looking. It has a pleasant fragrance and is easy to apply. It's great for all easily burnt bits: tops of feet, cleavage etc. and a little goes a long way so it doesn't work out as expensive as some that appear cheaper. I have also found that it doesn't need reapplying as often as others which is great if you're out and about and busy."
Karen, Coventry
"Lovea spf 50 face cream. I have fair skin and burn easily. Gives very good sun protection. Feels a bit greasy on the skin compared to the lovea regular sunscreens, better for dry skin. The spf minerals don't seem to blend in so well into the formula. Does leave a slight white cast (nowhere near as much as other natural sunscreens and I've tried most of them!) - this was not noticeable at all on my body but was noticeable on my face (seems to be unavoidable with natural non nano sunscreen). Would recommend for body, not as a regular face cream - too white and greasy."
Lucy, Warwickshire
"Pleasant smell,really thick texture,so it take some time to apply to whole face,and it leaves quitte shiny-greasy film on ur face...anyways,quitte happy to find organic face sun screen with so high spf.oh and I need to mention one more thing,after 3days of sunning myself in Turkey,no signs of sun burn,so It works!"
Jana, Ewell
"I bought this as I've changed to a moisturiser that doesn't have an SPF in it, and I have fair skin so definitely need to use sun protection. The Lovea SPF50 face cream seemed like a good product for me to try. I really wanted something I could use every day, but I'm not sure this product fits the bill - firstly, unfortunately I really dislike the smell! It's like a cross between bubblegum and fake-banana - yuk! But it does fade after it's been on your skin for a few minutes, and if you like sweet scents you probably wouldn't mind it at all. The texture is also quite greasy - it took me three goes with cleanser to remove it at the end of the day! However, there is hardly any whiteness to it when it's on the skin - it looks more pearlescent. I think this would be a good product to use when doing outdoor activities - on the beach, hiking, ski-ing etc. It stays put on your face and gives good protection, but for everyday it is a bit too thick."
Melissa, Devon
"A little goes a long way.
Stays on well."
Janice, Erith

sarah, Taunton
"this absorbs well if used over akin rosehip oil"
