BLUE LIZARD Sport Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 — 5 fl oz, Fragrance‑Free, 80‑Minute Water Resistant for Active Use

Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 is a fragrance-free, vegan mineral sunscreen lotion that provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection and up to 80 minutes of water resistance for active outdoor use.

Designed for athletes and outdoor enthusiasts, this Blue Lizard Sport Mineral sunscreen uses mineral-only actives—zinc oxide and titanium dioxide—so it sits on the skin to reflect UV rays rather than being absorbed. The formula includes electrolytes to help skin feel refreshed during activity, and it’s free from parabens, fragrances, oxybenzone and octinoxate to support sensitive skin and reef-friendly use. The Smart Cap® on the bottle changes color in sunlight, giving a quick visual cue when UV exposure is present.

How well does it protect during intense workouts or water activities?

This lotion delivers SPF 50 broad-spectrum protection, blocking the majority of UVB rays and helping defend against both UVA and UVB exposure. It’s engineered for high-movement situations and remains effective during sweat and water exposure for up to 80 minutes.

• SPF 50 blocks roughly 98% of UVB rays.
• Mineral actives: zinc oxide and titanium dioxide for physical sun defense.
• Maximum water resistance: 80 minutes during swimming or heavy sweating.
• Reapply after 80 minutes, towel drying, or every 2 hours as recommended.

Will the lotion feel greasy or leave a white cast?

Blue Lizard Sport Mineral is formulated to rub in smoothly and dry clear, minimizing the greasy feeling and visible white residue commonly associated with mineral sunscreens. Results will vary by skin tone and the amount applied.

• Untinted, lightweight finish that dries clear for most skin tones.
• Formulated to absorb evenly without heavy residue.
• Shake well before use to help achieve smoother application.

Is this safe for sensitive skin and the environment?

The lotion is fragrance-free, paraben-free, and vegan, avoiding common irritants and chemical sunscreen actives like oxybenzone and octinoxate that are linked to reef harm. While not a medical treatment, it’s designed with gentle ingredients to reduce the likelihood of irritation for many users.

• No oxybenzone or octinoxate—formulated with reef protection in mind.
• Fragrance- and paraben-free to be more tolerable for sensitive skin.
• Dermatologists have recommended Blue Lizard products for over two decades.

How should I apply and store this sunscreen for best results?

Shake the bottle well, then apply liberally to dry skin at least 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply immediately after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, after towel-drying, or at least every two hours to maintain protection.

• Apply 15 minutes before going outdoors for full effectiveness.
• Reapply after 80 minutes of water exposure or heavy sweating.
• Store away from excessive heat and direct sunlight to preserve product integrity.

Who this is for: Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 is made for athletes, outdoor workers, surfers, runners, hikers and anyone who needs reliable, physical sun protection during active time outdoors. It’s a practical choice for people seeking high SPF mineral protection without fragrances or parabens, those who prefer vegan formulations, and anyone wanting a reef-friendly sunscreen with a visible Smart Cap® reminder to stay sun-safe.
