What the gurus are saying

Strong UVA protection at an unusually affordable price point earns consistent praise from gurus, who highlight that the sunscreen's high PPD rating and transparent labelling of UVA coverage set it apart in a crowded market. The texture smooths on smoothly and feels light once absorbed, and the generous 100 ml bottle size makes it practical to apply generously without worry about cost. One note: it sells out frequently, so grab it when you spot it in stock.

"This is their Transparent Lab sunscreen, water and sweat resistant, anti-pollution, alcohol free, fragrance free, SPF 50, PPD 33. It's really nice. It's got a really nice lotiony texture, it smooths into skin really nicely, it's got some good filters in there, and once it soaks in it feels really nice and light on skin and transparent. It's got great filters in it. The bottle is huge too, it's 100 mls, 3.3 to 3.4 ounces."

"Transparent Lab's new range of sunscreens are phenomenal because they have some of the highest UVA protection I've ever seen, and for the price point you just don't normally see that level of protection. You really want to look for something broad spectrum in your sunscreen, something that protects against UVB rays, the ones that burn you, and UVA rays, the ones that age you. Most of us focus down on the SPF which will tell you the UVB protection and we kind of forget about the UVA coverage, but that's vitally important. Don't overpay for your sunscreen; pay a price point like the one with Transparent Lab that's going to allow you to apply as much as you need, as much as you want, without worrying about the price. You also get 100 ml here, whereas most sunscreens are 50 ml. I think this is amazing. I love the fact that they put that coverage, that protection factor and level front and center on their product so you know exactly what UVA protection you're getting."

"If you want to go for a water resistant sunscreen that is a little bit lower in price for your budget then I would recommend the Transparent Lab Sunscreen. Now run don't walk, it sells out like that, came back in stock yesterday and it's already rumored to be selling out all over the place. So if you want to have a water resistant sunscreen that is 100 ml and affordable then you've got the Transparent Lab one. I prefer the Allies of Skin one in terms of the final finish, but the Transparent Lab one is so ridiculously cheap, it is amazing for what you're getting and sky high protection."
