Disappointed in new formulation
Style: Golden Hour
I have been a loyal customer of Coola’s tinted sunscreen for over five years, purchasing it more than ten times on Amazon. It used to be my absolute favorite product—lightweight, luminous, with a beautiful shimmer and a lovely rose-like scent. Unfortunately, the recent reformulation is extremely disappointing. The new version has a harsh, overwhelming chemical odor—almost petroleum-like—that is off-putting and unpleasant to wear. It no longer applies the same way, and the coverage and radiance I loved are gone. Worse, I have sensitive skin, and this new formula causes tingling and even a slight burning sensation on my face. I originally thought I had received a bad batch and even repurchased in another shade, hoping it was just a one-off issue. Sadly, both bottles were the same. This is not the product I once loved, and I’m honestly heartbroken by the change. Unless the original formula is brought back, I can no longer recommend or repurchase.

I usually don't stick to the same product for this long
Style: Bronze Goddess
I've been using this BB Cream with SPF 30, Tinted Moisturizer Sunscreen & Foundation for years, and that’s saying a lot coming from me, as I usually don't stick to the same product for this long. This one, however, is an exception. It offers everything I need in one: excellent sun protection, a natural tint that evens out my skin tone, and lightweight moisturizing coverage. It blends effortlessly, leaving my skin looking flawless without feeling heavy or greasy. I frequently receive compliments on my skin, and I attribute that to this amazing BB cream. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an all-in-one skincare solution!

Great glow with even color and sunscreen.
Style: Golden Hour
This is the one thing I use every day. Alone or as a base for make up. I love the sheer coverage that color corrects and provides sunscreen. Easy to throw on with smooth easy coverage. It takes other types of makeup really well… powders and contouring sticks perfectly. It does not ball up when used with other products. It does not have a strong scent and gives you a great glow. I always get compliments on my skin using it. I have tried so many other natural products like this and this is my favorite.

Good for skiing or boating
Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Works great to slather on my kids face before skiing or boat ride. It is thick but rubs in pretty clear. Doesn’t leave a residue.

Great small size and lasting sun protection
Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Love the small stick... have been using it for month and with my sensitive, light skin it always provides protection. You do have to reapply it as necessary - I am outside all day working at kayak shop and sweating. It stays on but reapply every couple hours. Been waiting for something this size and convenient and effective
