10/10 for this spf for sensitive skin!

I am extremely particular about the ingredients in my skincare. I don’t have words to tell you how excited I was to purchase this eco-conscious brand!! I LOVE that it’s plant-based and that it packs argon oil and squalene in with spf 50 😎 Thank you creating a 2-in-1 moisturizer that doesn’t smell or leave a weird white film on my face! I’m. So. Grateful!! 👩🏻‍🦰

wow thank you for the 10/10 rating Ashley! I'm also extremely particular about the ingredients in my skincare and really appreciate your review-the ingredients I chose to use are intentional and I'm really proud that they are good for you and eco-conscious-this was not easy to do while also keeping it not smelly, or leaving a white film on your face. I really appreciate you noticing and saying so. Thank you for your support Ashley!

Gives my skin a dewy fresh look!

I can't say enough great things about Ginger Armor! Love how it glides on my skin and leaves it moisturized and protected! If you're on the fence about it - don't be, get some!!!

#NiceCopper

I am blown away by the quality and design of this product. I have been using now for a couple of weeks as a daily moisturiser and my skin feels softer, looks clearer and I know I don’t have to worry about sun damage throughout my day. The size of packaging is super convenient - allowing you to take in cabin bags for short-haul destinations. I have a fully booked Summer of holidays and I just know Ginger Armor is going to be by my side for every single one ✌🏼

Thank you so much for your review Bladon! It means a lot to me! I'm honored that you take ginger armor with you on your travels and really appreciate you sending these great photos and video to show everyone that you love ginger armor!

Thank you for your review,

Never switching sunscreens again

Ginger Armor is my favorite skincare product. That sentence ends in a period. It means period, and implies no further explanation needed, but since you insist I’ll tell you why!

Ginger Armor is the most thoughtfully formulated sunscreen on the market. It’s lightweight, doesn’t leave any white marks or oily residues on my face, and probably best of all has allowed me to replace certain steps in my skincare routine! I used to take a couple of drops of Argan oil and vitamin E and spread them on my face. Thanks to GA I no longer waste my time doing extra steps or buying extra product (more space in my bathroom!).

I also appreciate that it’s housed in aluminum. More recycling centers are equipped to process aluminum than the plastic bottles most other sunscreens come in. This also allows me to keep a bottle in my car without worrying about the container melting or leaching plastic chemicals into my sunscreen (and then onto my face!). I use it before I leave the house, but keep one in my car to reapply when surfing or hiking, especially for friends who forget to apply.

I also love that it doesn’t contain a fragrance! It has a pleasant nutty scent that dissipates once applied, so it never clashes with my cologne.

Take it from someone who is probably too proud of the fact that most people think he’s still in his twenties because of his skin: Ginger Armor is the be-all end-all of sunscreens, and deservedly so.

Thank you for your review Ashe! I am so grateful that you love Ginger Armor and appreciate you spreading the word about why you do!

Yaassssss

This product is amazing! Truly a great moisturizer and powerful sunscreen in one. And the best part!? It really does rub in clear no white marks or patches. Will definitely be making this apart of my daily routine :)

I'm so happy you like it and are making it apart of your daily routine Scott!

Received Expired Product

The product I received was expired by 2 months according to the information printed on the bottom of the bottle.

I contacted the company twice by email to resolve the issue only to have my concerns not get a response.

I have used this product in the past and was happy with it. But I can't endorse this product if they are sending items past their expiration.

100 % very disappointed and not satisfied product is expiring end of May 2024 I want full refund and new product dated 1 yr out so I can use it

This is the only sunscreen I use now. It’s light, effective, and easy to apply. The best out there.

Finally a sunscreen I'll use every day

I was skeptical, but so glad I took a chance on yet another sunscreen. I'm very prone to burning and have had many skin cancers removed, so sun protection is not optional for me. But most sunscreens burn like hell once they inevitably get in my eyes. Typical mineral sunscreens that don't irritate my eyes are gloopy and hard to spread and work in--lots of white streaks and missed spots. I was a very irregular user because of these shortfalls, and have mostly relied on long sleeves and big hats.

But this stuff is great! No burning. Spreads and rubs in easily. And a moisturizer to boot. Now I'm applying it daily. My dermatologist will be happy.

I am so grateful that you gave Ginger Armor a chance and use it regularly. Thank you for letting folks know that it doesn't sting your eyes and spreads nicely and for being vulnerable and telling people about your cancers. I hope more people will wear sunscreen regularly to prevent skin cancer. Thank you for your review Dennis, it means a lot to me! -Skyler Brady, Ginger Armor

Finally, the perfect sunscreen.

If you’re like me and have systematically tried every single sunscreen you could find in every price range with both mineral and chemical sunscreen and ones that work well for face and body, you’ll know how hard it is to find a good one. Ginger Armor seriously knocks it out of the park. It’s lightweight and non-greasy, it rubs in clear unlike thicker mineral sunscreens (how ?!!), it super easy to apply and doesn’t have the usual “sunscreen smell”. It smells nice and feels nice and I feel comfortable wearing it out daily. With other brands, I’d be worried about looking greasy or pasty white all day. Also, this bottle has lasted me forever which put all reservations aside about the slightly higher than average price. Recently bought two new bottles, one for home and one to keep in my bag.

Thank you so much of your review Matt! This means so much to me and I'm so glad you love using Ginger Armor. Thank you for your support!

2-in1 sunscreen

I am absolutely thrilled with this sunscreen! It feels fantastic on my skin—lightweight with a soft, moisturizing texture. Since I started using it, I've noticed a significant improvement in the brightness and smoothness of my skin. I can't recommend this product enough. It has become an essential part of my morning routine, the first thing I apply after washing my face. Plus, I never let the kids leave the house without it. It's a must-have for all of us!

Thank you so much for your review Lisa! I'm so grateful for your support and I am honored that Ginger Armor is part of your morning routine for you and your family.

Love the feel on my skin of Ginger Armor. The packaging is terrific, too.

I really liked that this left no white cast and feels like moisturizer. I'm pleased to use a sunscreen that is environmentally friendly. I did notice a slight odor--it doesn't bother me and doesn't smell like a typical sunscreen. Rather, I think I'm smelling the mineral.

Best sunscreen out there!! If you’ve done your research you know that mineral sunscreen is the only way and this one has been perfected. No nano zinc and no white residue. So actually safe to put on your kids and no complaining about white marks! Truly the only sunscreen you should consider buying!!

Pricey but feels light on my skin. I’m usually allergic to many sunscreens. This one no issues. Happy safe for ocean reefs. Going on a big trip and this is important to me

The texture of Ginger Armor is amazing! Goes on super smoothly and disappears right away. It slows down my freckle collection like a dream and leaves my skin feeling great! Not greasy or chalky-looking. This sunscreen is MUCH better than I expected and the packaging is brilliant. Practical and clean. I plan to be a customer for life!

As good as advertised

Most sunscreens give me contact dermatitis, so I’m always looking for one that my skin can tolerate, in addition to being reef safe, biodegradable, mineral-based, not over-scented, and blends well into my pale skin. This is the one! I’m very pleased with the results and am thrilled. The price is comparable to big name brands and performs better. And the packaging isn’t plastic! I highly recommend Ginger Armor, especially if you have sensitive skin.

Thank you so much for your review Brenda! I'm very grateful for your support!

Great all in one

I've been looking for a combo product for a while. I need extra sun protection but also a moisturizer bc let's face it, I'm not getting younger lol. This product provides both of these. I am also highly sensitive to anything on my face and this product works great on my sensitive skin. I don't have any flare ups or redness! Love it

Thank you so much for your review, I'm glad you and. your skin are loving Ginger Armor!

My husband and I both love this sunscreen! We’ve not been burnt once this entire summer. The best part is that it doesn’t cause acne and it feels really light on the skin. This bottle will probably last forever but we will be purchasing again for sure!

Shockingly great!

Do I have a collection of sunscreens at home most of whom have betrayed me in some way? Oh yeah! Was I skeptical that this would somehow be different. Yup. Was I pleasantly surprised to be proven wrong? No, I was outright shocked! This stuff is amazing!! I’m a flight paramedic and often get caught outside in the sun for an extended time on occasion. Ginger Armor is quick and easy to put on. It doesn’t run or sting your eyes when you sweat. Doesn’t feel gross. Multiple subsequent applications even feel like they’re barely there but still provide great coverage. I’m literally throwing all my other sunscreens away. My ONLY complaint is that I’ve noticed a little leaking / pooling around the pump, but it’s not excessive and I can usually just wipe it up with my finger and put it somewhere on my face for extra protection. Getting my second bottle so I don’t run out!

Your review means a lot to me Brian! I'm really grateful for you sharing this and am honored that you like to use my sunscreen!

Amazing stuff

Seriously love this stuff. Ginger airline pilot from TX. And I wear this religiously. Only bad is it says only two hours of direct sunlight? Most of the mineral stuff I use says 4 hours.

I really appreciate your review Casey! The FDA labelling requirement is 2 hours, sometimes all you need is 1 application per day (depending on how much UV/sun you're exposed to). I reapply every hour when I'm in the direct sunlight, but if it's a lower UV index, sometimes I just do it 1x and feel adequately protected.

Great Sunscreen

I’ve used a lot of sunscreen working outside as a horse trainer. I’ve always liked mineral sunscreens for lasting longer and being more effective than chemical, plus like not having it in my bloodstream… but I have always hated the feeling of “painting it on” because of how thick mineral based sunscreens can be. Or how they made me look like a ghost. I was thrilled to see how light and sheer Ginger armor really is. It’s pleasant to put on and I can use it anytime, not just when I don’t care about my looks. I also loved the eco-friendly packaging. Very impressed!

Thank you very much Grayson! I really appreciate your review and know the struggle of choosing between chemical and mineral sunscreens. I'm so glad that you like mine!

Love the packaging and it works. Seeing what I got, I think it is much more expensive than it needs to be. Probably wouldn’t buy again unless it was less expensive.
