Reliable Sun Protection for Active Days!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
Coppertone SPORT SPF 50 is my go-to sunscreen for outdoor activities. It’s lightweight, non-greasy, and stays on even when I’m sweating or swimming. The broad-spectrum formula protects against both UVA and UVB rays, giving me peace of mind during long hours in the sun. The 3 fl oz size is perfect for carrying in a gym bag, backpack, or beach tote, making it easy to reapply throughout the day. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave a sticky residue, which is great for sports or active adventures. Highly recommend for anyone who wants effective, durable sun protection without sacrificing comfort or mobility!

IT does protect from the sun.
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
It protects from the sun without a doubt and lasts well. The downsides are that it leaves a greasy and "white" residue that no matter how much you rub it in.....it stays there. I use it when I am working outside and not planning on going anywhere anytime soon.
