I live in Australia and ordered this via Uncommon Scents (took about 2 weeks to arrive). Very happy indeed. Feels SO nice and gentle (and moisturising) on my skin. I'm surprised by the comment that "no amount of rubbing could eliminate the white look". I have really pale skin too and I don't find it much of a drama to rub the cream in. I get rid of most of the white and even if there's a tiny bit left, I can put up with that in return for getting a safe, natural, gentle, effective sunscreen. Yes it comes out of the tube kind of pasty but it softens in seconds. Personally, I'd be wary of a product called "Clean and Clear" as it could have nanoparticles in it, and I don't think it's been conclusively shown that nanoparticles do not pass into the bloodstream after application to the skin. Impressed with this product and good value too!! Cheers.

If you're looking strictly for natural sun protection, this is it. However, this disappointed me in several other areas: It is very pasty, comes out of the tube and applies to the skin like you were applying pure zinc. I have very pale skin and no amount of rubbing could eliminate the white look. I imagine it would be even more dramatic for someone who doesn't have light skin. It also gets on clothing and doesn't come out until you launder. I don't like the look or feel of it. Very difficult to wash off the palms of your hands after application. For a similar price, I recommend Burnout Clean and Clear SPF 30. It has the same zinc content but goes on smoothly, doesn't leave the white ghost look and has a nice matte appearance.
