Not the most effective

Hawaiian tropics to me is more of a sunscreen that smells good and has a cute bottle. It is not efficient and I burned when I used it but hey at least I smelled good.

I got this as a free sample and I am happy and amazed at the size of the sample. They actually have me a mini bottle of it to try out. I'm going to keep it in my purse it's so perfect. I love the smell and the texture is smooth and easy to apply.

Aside from just the amazing smell, this sunscreen is the best bang for your buck. The quality becomes more watery in a high heat area such as the Caribbean, but if you can remember to put on your sunscreen before leaving the house, you'll have full coverage and also get a really good tan. Even though it's not water proof, I would recommend it over any water proof sunscreen that I've tried. The lightweight feel (even from the non lightweight cream) and the good quality is worth applying an extra coat after swimming.

I really like this sunscreen. It has a nice texture and does not go on oily. I wear it under my makeup and feel great throughout the day. It also has a nice Hawaiian type scent so you don't smell like you have heavy duty sunscreen on. Also, a little goes a long way so you can have this product for a while. I would recommend this sunscreen to anyone plus there's the nice label that says it is recognized by the Canadian Dermatology Association, which may be a selling point for some.

If you have very fair skin and burn easily, you should try this.

I wore this in the hot sun in 45 degree weather in a tropical country and there was literally no change of colour in my skin. I can burn easily but I do like to get a bit of a tan on vacation - so I did not continue to use this during the rest of my vacation, but for the start where I was pale as ever, it really helped in preventing burn.

I love this product! It smells soooo great and it works awesome for people who burn easily like myself!
