The only sunscreen I use now. I’ve got very fair skin that burns easily, and I have recently become very diligent with skin care, so I invested in a tub of this & I don’t regret it one bit. Living right on the coast, I’m always at the beach or in the sun and this sunscreen comes with me everywhere. I don’t go a day without applying it to my face as that’s one part of my body that I don’t want to age. Thankyou sunsense for your ultra fantastic product!

I’ve always been someone to buy whatever sunscreen is on special at the supermarket, but since trying SunSense I won’t be buying any other brand. We all have fair skin and burn very easily, so the SPF 50+ rating gives me peace of mind and the pump pack makes application easy and most importantly, mess free! I’ve even purchased the roll-on version to keep in my handbag, for those unexpected trips to the park and beach.

Our family all have extremely fair skin so the 50+ is so important to us. I love the fact we can leave it in the bathroom and the kids can easily access it and apply prior to running out to school and any sport activities. I bought a small roll on for each of their school bags too. I find it easy to go on and it protects them really well. I’m extremely happy with SunSense 50+ and will continue to use it.

I didn’t get selected for a review however I thought I’d post since I buy this product all the time anyway. It is good value for money and the 50+ sunscreen protection is really necessary if you’re heading outdoors or to the beach. It is easy to apply, and re apply (after a couple of hours, you always need more). It won’t leave a greasy residue on your skin and doesn’t stain clothes. Fully recommend this product.

I love knowing that my kids and the whole family are protected from our harsh sun. I recently purchased the sunsense pump and roll on sunscreen from Priceline after recommendation from the retail assistant. I’m very happy that I took her word for it. The fact that it’s SPF 50+ is fantastic and very convenient for a large family like ours. I also purchased roll on and keep it in my five year olds school bag so he can apply it by himself while at school. He loves it and is proud that he can do it himself. I also have peace of mind that he is protected while at school.

Reliable brand and SPF 50+ protection. The pump is great value and makes it easy for everyone in the family to use before leaving the house. It also ensures that they are only using what has been pumped out and doesn’t contaminate the rest, especially when sand is involved. the tube and roll on is easy to pack for on the go reapplying. Great product that makes me feel my family is sun protected.

A close friend of mine, just got a laser treatment done for lip. She was advised to always have the sunscreen on. She had started using sunsense on my recommendation, and used it even after laser treatment. There have been no side effects that she can see on her face. the treatment day went fine and was nice and clean. No itchiness, no dryness, no red marks. All went well. Good job sunsense sunscreen. Proud of you ! we can now recommend to other friends as well

I had been using this for a few weeks, it has been fine but now it is giving my daughter an irritation but for me it is great, it is non greasy, works well, is easy to apply and the pump pack is fantastic and easy to use. I like that the protection rating is so high. I don’t leave the house without appplying this to me from head to toe, I usually have quite sensitive skin but it seems fine. I have just gotten a more sensitive one from the same brand for my daughter.

I really enjoyed trying this product on my 4 children as we have skin issues that are easily irritated. It went on nice and not greasy and after 4hrs there were no reactions at all. I didn’t reapply for nearly 6 hrs and there was no sign of sun burn at that time. All my kids found the pump pack easy to use, even my 3yr old. I will definatly be purchasing this product in the future as it has impressed me so much!

Having a high SPF rating is important especially with a small child. This product is easy to apply and not greasy like other sunscreens. I find I don’t have to reapply as often as others. I love the full range and I would recommend this to others with families and it’s great value for money.

SunSense has a large range of sunscreens in 50spf to suit the whole family. They can be easily found at most pharmacies. Remember to toss out any old sunscreen that is out of date as it won’t be affective. I trust SunSense to protect my family. I’ve had a melanoma so it’s important to me to have good protection.

SunSense has a great range of sunscreens to suit everyone. It’s good to have the larger pump bottle for the family and handy to have the smaller roll on in your bag as a back up. Good product provides high protection at 50+ SPF and can be easily purchased at most pharmacies.

It’s coming to that time of year when it warms up and we go outside more. Having had skin cancer I’m very aware of the importance of skin protection. SkinSense is easy to use and comes in a range of sizes and types to suit everyone. I find the spray bottle easiest to use but I guess that’s just personal preference. Make sure you toss out old sunscreen that has gone past its use date and protect yourself.

Comes in a variety of sizes to suit everyone so you can tuck a small one away in your bag just in case you need it. I prefer the larger size to suit the family. It doesn’t have a fragrance so that is a bonus. The cream goes in well and it is easy to use.

I didn’t get selected for a review, but as we are fanatical about sunscreen, and have many varieties in our house I thought that I’d review this one anyway. Spf 50+ is the best and only sunscreen to have when you’re outdoors all day. Especially if you have young kids with sensitive skin. The pump pack makes it easy to apply (except when you get to the end of the bottle), and I love that it comes in a range of different size packs to suit all needs.

I have used SunSense tint on my face and neck for quite a while when I decided to buy the sunscreen range for the family. What can I say? So much better than Banana Boat and even Cancer Council sunscreens. I cannot find a single fault with this product and it is a reasonable price. I keep the roll on in my child’s school bag, so handy!

This sunscreen has protected both of my children and myself in very humid, hot weather. The Suns rays are so strong and fierce, it’s amazing how easily we can burn in the summer weather. I like to use the pump cream as a base and then when I reapply I like to use the roll on one. It’s 50+ which is the highest that I have seen for coverage in a sunscreen. You want to be able to trust that your skin and your family’s skin is protected and this is definitely the product.

I use other products from the same company such as QV wash and cream, as they don’t irritate my sensitive skin. I was happy to see they had sunscreen as well. I’ve found it great for the whole family and have now started using the daily face (pictured) for when I go to work. No problems with my skin and it feels natural. Will keep on buying.

This is the only brand I trust for my family to use. The roll on is handy for your bag for quick and easy application especially on the children. We used this in Queensland just recently as we are from Melbourne – typically the Queensland weather is stronger than we are used to. Provided we used followed the Application instructions we did not have any issues. Not too greasy either and quite easy to rub in.

I tried it the first time as a giveaway at a ZOORUN fundraiser. So glad for that sample! I will never purchase generic sunscreen again. SunSense really works. SunSense is non greasy and does what it promises. Protects you from harmful rays and 3 hours protection in the water!

I have been using SunSense Ultra SPF 50+ for a while now. Initially I used to use it every time my family and I would go to the beach. Soon after I used to apply it everyday (as outings were becoming more frequent and spontaneous). However, I noticed the product starts to flake off the skin and if your rub your arms or legs, you can see residues of the product. It does not rub in easily and smoothly. I will continue to use the pack till it is finished, however will definitely not buy it again.

I bought this in the small 125ml bottle as wanted to try it before I bought the larger size. was plesantly suprised. Its the perfect subnscreen for the whole family as its got no fragrance and very high sun protection even in water. Lastly really well and provides good sun protection. Is milky white in colour easy to apply does have a greasy after feel so use it for days when you need really high sun protection like at the beach or on a outdoors all day picnic

Every morning without fail I put my SunSense Ultra SPF50+ sunscreen on before I step outside. I have one large pump dispenser in the laundry and I small squeeze tube in my bag. It offers excellent high sun protection with three hours water resistance. It is an idea sunscreen for me to use as it helps protect against sunburn and skin ageing.

Genius Beach And Pool Tips Every Aussie Mum Should Know
Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!
But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier).
You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!
Pack Smart, Not Big
Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?
Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and
A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
A dry bag for clothes
A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
A pop-up tent for changing
Waterproof phone case
Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!
“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member
Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts
It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:
Swimming between the flags at the beach
Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel.
Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.
That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!
Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier
The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.
Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.
Prep & Time It Perfectly
There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.
“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member
Pack Smart Snacks
Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:
Chopped fruit
Crackers
Boiled eggs
Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight
“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member
A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!
You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!
Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.
Mouths of Mums is proudly working with Banana Boat to bring you this article.
So happy to share the magic of baby powder after a messy day at the beach or park! It’s been a game changer for us.
Not quite as elaborate as the pop up tent, but a large towel with a hood has been great to discretely change out of bathers! It’s my husband’s go to now haha
My biggest tip is to be very clear who’s watching the kids, especially when they’re in the water. Like, actually verbally hand over and make sure it’s acknowledged if you’re going somewhere (like to the bathroom). That can definitely save lives, but also save panics about lost kids in crowded spaces.
Some really good tips here! I had no idea about the talcum powder hack – who would have known! That is amazing and I will definitely try it next time we go to the beach! It is definitely worthwhile getting things ready the night before though, especially if you want to leave before midnight lol.
In the SunSense Ultra SPF 50+ Sunscreen product review, selected mums will be asked to replace their family’s normal sunscreen with SunSense Ultra SPF 50+ Sunscreen, and then post their reviews and ratings on this page.
