Bask Suncare reviews and discussion

Fantastic product precisely as described ("lightweight, non-oily, easy to apply") and we love the all-natural ingredients. We use a lot of sunscreen as a family (a bunch of pale-skin gingers and a lifeguard!) and so we're sensitive to product quality. Everyone loved this one!

Wore this every day for 2 weeks in the 100+ degree weather in Israel where my even phone warned me UV levels were "extreme" — and never once burned! I love how it goes on light and non-oily, and it doesn't have that weird sunscreen smell. And it's good for the planet, AND has good branding, so Bask gets an A+ from me.

12/3/2023 update i very much appreciate how quick and efficiently the company remedied my concerns and sent me two new sunscreens, that makes me believe that my initial experience was a fluke and i feel secure in purchasing from this company again in the future. *10/26/2023 Update* I received my sunscreen on the last day of June and noticed today that it's starting to show signs of splitting which worries me that the formula is destabilized and not as effective anymore which is a disappointment. I understand sunscreen expires but three months seems quicker than normal. I've change my rating from 5 to 2 stars. ✨☀️🍋🌈 Bask Feel Good Bundle SPF 50 🌈🍋☀️✨ Everything I want from a classic sunscreen with US UV filters. When I don't want to deal with trying to minimize the whitecast from Euro and Asian sunscreen filters, this is an excellent dependable option. I don't find the fragrance cloying even though I don't gravitate towards scented skincare.

Used this sunscreen in really intense sun in France for a week and didn't get sunburnt! Aka it was effective. Also smelled nice, wasn't greasy and didn't make me breakout.

I am super picky about skincare, especially suncare. Bask knocked it out on texture, scent, and protection

Bask made me enjoy putting on sunscreen. I tried the bundle which included the lotion and the spray. The spray bottle was weirdly difficult to press down on, especially once my hands were already covered in sunscreen. The lotion was incredible and smelled SO GOOD - it rubbed in easily and no white cast for me at all. I did not use Bask on my face because I am slightly hesitant about using something other than my standard face sunscreen. Unfortunately, the price point is where I have issues. Living on the west coast, I go through sunscreen very quickly, especially with all of the reapplications. For $22, you get 3.4 ounces of sunscreen and I could probably get a better deal elsewhere. I do like that it's TSA friendly, but I wish they had different sizes. Also, I wish it was more readily available in stores.

I really like what Bask stands for and the products are great. I enjoy the lotion and spray; both very easy to rub in.

I got the Thingdrop discounted pack of the spray and lotion in SPF 50. Even at full price, this pretty sunscreen doesn't break the bank. It is effective, spreads well, and has a great mission - reef-friendly, non-aerosol sunscreen with no white cast. It also has a shelf life of THREE YEARS, which is longer than most sunscreens and we all know how we never use up the full bottle by the time summer is over. I also appreciate the donating to nonprofits aspect of Bask. The sunscreen packaging also looks great with its attractive, clean graphics and colors. The sunscreen itself has a pretty intense smell - it's a classic sunscreen smell, so if you like that then you'll like this. I am pretty sensitive to scents both skin-wise and nose-wise, so I usually opt for unscented formulas. This hasn't made me break out, but I do find myself reaching more for my Summer Camp sunscreen because of the strong smell. The lotion formulation is very easily spreadable, and the spray goes pretty far. I do have to say that it is a bit sticky and greasy/oily (another reason why I tend to reach more for Summer Camp). It's definitely still not as sticky and greasy as sunscreens from years prior. I would definitely still recommend this and I would purchase it again when I need a new sunscreen! UPDATE August 2023: I'm reaching the bottom of my Summer Camp sunscreen, and it's giving a horrendous white cast. Maybe I didn't shake the bottle enough per use, but I'm now reaching for my Bask sunscreen consistently. I wish I could give it 4.5 stars, the minus .5 stars is still for the scent. It's definitely the best sunscreen I've tried from the USA, given the U.S. FDA's limitations on sunscreens!

Thought the product was lovely! I packed both for a long weekend in Miami and as a very very pale girl, I'm happy to say I didn't get burned at all. I had a spray tan on so I used the spray (since lotion sunscreens can often fade your tan faster) and it didn't remove my tan which was great. I've used the lotion version at home when playing tennis outdoors for several hours at a time and also didn't get burned then - I reapplied after about 90 minutes.

Smells so good and evenly applies

I can never try enough sunscreens, so was pumped for this Thingdrop! I like that both the sun cream and spray have a nostalgic, beachy smell to them. I found the cream easy to apply to my face without a white cast. It did leave my face a bit greasy at first, so I will probably reserve it for days when I'm going to be in a lot of sun (versus in the office). The spray saved my butt this past weekend when I went to the pool for several hours. I was in and out of the water and was pretty nervous about coming home with a burn, but I didn't even get red. My friend who was with me (and also burns easily) used a different spray and got burned, so I do credit Bask for keeping me safe and comfortable this weekend. Again, a bit of a greasy feel which I've found in all spray sunscreens, but the spray was very smooth and easy to spray all over (didn't need a friend to get my back for me, for example). Will definitely repurchase at least the spray as my new outdoor body sunscreen!

This sunscreen is amazing - super lightweight and nongreasy feel!

Super enjoyable aroma and feels barely there compared to so many other brands. I have zero trouble encouraging folks to try this!

The spray sunscreen is probably the best I have ever used. It dries almost on application and does not leave an oily residue.

This sunscreen was great! I received the lotion type and it wasn't greasy at all. I loved that it shipped with recyclable materials and if I remember correctly. Definitely will be repurchasing for next summer!

Great sunscreen!

I really like this, especially the spray on! Smells nice, applies well, and packaging is fun. Would buy again.

I got the 50 spf as a thingdrop discount and love it. It smells great and not too strong or sunscreen-y smelling. It worked well and kept me from getting burned over the summer without feeling greasy. Overall it did what sunscreen is meant to do but with a cuter packaging and smell. I also loved that it was better for the reefs, which is pretty important to me considering the world we live in. I didn't test this over more than a few hours for re application or water but I really liked it for what it was.

Easy application, no white cast (I'm a brown person), and very light! Most importantly, I had significantly reduced sunburn than what I was used to/expecting on a week long vacation in the sun and water -- amazing! Only significant downside is that it's not a mineral sunscreen so not as reef-friendly as they claim.

Really nice sunscreen. Smells really nice and goes on easily. I tried the 50 SPF and so far it had done a good job of protecting me from getting burnt. The spray is easy to use and appears to go on evenly. My face is a bit sensitive, and I did find that it got a little red after using the first time, but after using subsequent times, it hasn’t been an issue. Overall it’s a solid sunscreen!
