I’ve tried all different types of sunscreen over the years and let’s face it, I didn’t really like most of them.
Whether they didn’t really work, were super oily, bad for my skin, or just left a horrible white layer over my skin, there are many that just aren’t great.
So when I heard that Rocky Mountain Soap Co made a really top-notch Sunscreen that was moisturising and natural, I just had to try out for myself.
Now I know if you’re in Canada you’re thinking, ‘why is Mark writing about this right now?’ Well here’s why, I tested the sunscreen in Mexico and Costa Rica, in direct sun, in the shade, in over 35 degrees (Celsius) weather. I wanted to really put it to the test, and I did exactly that.
Here’s what I found.
I love it. The scent is fresh and real, unlike most sunscreens it’s very moisturizing. It was pretty much like putting on a really great moisturiser and my skin thanked me for doing so. Not only that, to my surprise, it actually worked really well.
While it’s not waterproof, which I knew and had a backup plan for, it did work for everything else I did along the way; as I trekked through Mexico and then a week later Costa Rica. All without ever getting burnt.

Not only did I love the Sunscreen, but I also really enjoyed the Pomegranate Day Cream and The Transformative Cleansing Oil.

That’s pretty impressive. I prefer natural sunscreens, but some don’t work.
