I went to a 5 day, outdoor music festival with minimal shade for the entire time. I used Sun Bums mineral sunscreen in roll on, spray, face stick and lotion form and did not get a sunburn!! I am super super fair skinned so this was IMPRESSIVE. I also have very sensitive skin and have never had a reaction! Below is the photo of how much sunscreen I went through ;) Shannon K. · trustthebum.com
