White's Better than Red
Have read some negative reviews on this product but in my experience it's great!
It does take a bit of rubbing to get it to sink in (especially if you use too much), but
it keeps me from burning and does its job without using chemicals. If I have to look a bit white to keep from being red, so be it. Finished one tube and just ordered two more.

good stuff
I chose Badger because in the 2009 Environmental Working Group's sun screen ratings, Badger was in the top three for effectiveness and 'clean' ingredients (no bad chemicals). Badger is a cream-type sunscreen, and like most that contain zinc oxide, it creates a white haze on the skin. Badger will continue to be my first choise for sports and informal situations. Because of the white haze, I would choose another product for use in formal settings.

No more doubts...
It wasn't until recently that I realized that the skin products that we have been sold on to protect us from excessive sun exposure were nothing but a poor excuse to sell us something useless. What's the point of selling an inferior product? To give us a false sense of security that we did something right for ourselves? Well, no more. I constantly fear for my children and, hopefully, like most parents, I want what is safest for them. I came across the Badger Balm on the ewg.com (environmental working group) website which had a rating for sunscreens. On that list, Badger was one of the more effective ones for the job and contained the least amount of toxic materials. So, it not only protected well from both UVA and UVB radiation, but it also did not expose the user to harmful chemicals. A double plus. Got it, off to the beach for a week full of daily sun exposure. There was not a single problem the whole week. Everyone's skin held up well with not a single case of redness. It held up after hours of water exposure. It held up after hours of perspiring on a bike ride. It protected us the whole day. You could tell it was still on your skin because the water or your sweat was still beading on your skin. Yes, it is hard to apply but I considered that a plus because it kept you conscious of the dangers of excessive sun exposure. Yes, it has a mild lavender aroma to it. Yes, if you did not take the time to spread it well it made you look like a ghost for the first hour or two, but that is a small price to pay to prevent skin cancer, sunburn and, more importantly, at least for others, premature wrinkling of your skin. This has found a place in the activity bags of every member of the family.
