The Mineral Liplux Tinted Lip Balms are buttery smooth and feel nourishing with plenty of butters like organic cupuaçu butter and mongongo oil. I found that the COOLA Sunless Tan Dry Oil works the same as the serum – it just has a different consistency (oil) and method of application (spray). The oil is a thin dry oil that absorbs well and doesn’t feel heavy.

As mentioned above, SPF doesn’t protect against UVA rays, which can be just as dangerous as UVB rays. “UVA rays penetrate the skin deeply—even without causing any sunburn—and they result in sun damage and aging,” says Halim. It's important to note that both types of ultraviolet rays can also lead to skin cancer. With that in mind, it’s crucial to find a product that offers broad-spectrum protection, meaning it will absorb or deflect both UVA and UVB rays. And if you're worried about ocean life, there are also reef-safe sunscreens available for both the face and body.

Coola Sunless Tan Body Serum Before and After

Another great COOLA tinted face sunscreen, the Rosilliance BB Cream is a sheer lightweight tinted moisturizer that comes in three shades. The light/medium shade is a tad too dark but because it’s so sheer it just makes me look tan. The COOLA Rosilliance BB cream gives my skin a dewy finish while providing very light coverage. It’s perfect if you want your skin to look like yours while your minor blemishes are blurred. The Rosilliance cream also uses physical UV filter titanium dioxide to provide UV protection.

COOLA’s Rosilliance is another favorite for mineral tinted sunscreens if you’re looking for something a little luxurious.

She considered dozens of sunscreens for the face for this roundup, evaluating each on active ingredients, texture and skin-feel of formula, and finish. A “nice glow” is how testers described the finish. I personally found that I loved how it made my skin look–fresh, bright and even more awake, with no white cast at all—and that it continued to feel great 2-plus hours later. I never expected a sunscreen to give my skin such a boost, and it was a very pleasant bonus.

If you’re looking for a luxury tinted spf lip balm with sun protection, the COOLA Mineral Liplux is a great option. This is another COOLA product that is 100% mineral with Titanium Dioxide 3.6% and Zinc Oxide 3.0%. Californian brand COOLA is passionate about creating beautiful product experiences that embody a happy, healthy lifestyle. Believing that clean beauty should feel as good as it is healthy, they’re on a mission to develop organic products that not only deliver noticeable results, but are a pleasure to use every single day. Brand History COOLA’s organic scalp and hair mist is SPF haircare that provides SPF 30 protection using chemical UV filters. With summer around the corner, if you’re looking to help prevent UV-related hair color fading an SPF hair mist is a great addition to your haircare regimen. The COOLA Scalp & Hair Mist is made with 70% organic ingredients including Monoi Oil to nourish scalp and hair. The mist is made up mostly of alcohol denatured so it sprays on like water and isn’t heavy or oily. It has a subtle salted ocean sage smell.

COOLA Sunscreen Sprays use chemical UV filters + 70% organic ingredients. I was sent their body sunscreens to try out and found the COOLA sunscreen sprays particularly useful during my island vacation trips as I had to protect my entire body plus reapply every few hours or after swimming. Love the deliciously tropical Guava Mango scent. If you’re not avoiding chemical UV filters, I have nothing else bad to say about the COOLA body sunscreen sprays. Excellent even spray mist, excellent protection and excellent smell. Because they are chemical, the COOLA sunscreen sprays go on clear. I have yet to see another clean spf hair mist, so the COOLA Scalp & Hair Mist might be the only one available. If you’ve ever gotten a sunburn on your hairline you know that it can be a nuisance. I’m all for protecting the scalp and hair from damaging UV rays if at all possible. I’m not a chemist but I imagine it would be difficult to create a 100% mineral hair mist without adding some kind of chemical UV filter bevause the spray would go on white and weigh down hair. Five out of six testers raved about this Coola sunscreen’s lightweight, practically imperceptible feel. In fact, unbeknownst to us, it has been one Forbes staffer’s favorite for years. “I love that it provides ample coverage without irritating my sensitive skin,” she wrote. “It feels lightweight. I usually reapply my sunscreen every 2 to 3 hours when I’m outdoors, and it never feels like I have several layers on even when I’m reapplying it for the fifth time.” A Glowy, Healthy-Looking FinishThis Coola face sunscreen is a chemical formula containing avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate and octocrylene; it doesn’t contain oxybenzone or octinoxate. There are also Coola mineral sunscreens for the face that contain only zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Does Coola Face Sunscreen Leave A White Cast? COOLA Sun Silk Creme is a full 360 degree spectrum product that protects against the sun, blue light, infrared, and pollution. I prefer the Sun Silk Cream over the Sun Silk Drops. The Coola Sun Silk Creme feels more like a moisturizing lotion, dries matte and uses non-nano Zinc Oxide instead of their usual Avobenzone/Homosalate/Octosalate. Major plus! It does have some white cast so I can’t see the Sun Silk Creme working for darker skin tones. None of our testers reported a white cast with the Coola Classic Face Organic Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50. Even our bearded tester found that it disappeared without leaving any visible or chalky residue behind. Is Coola Sunscreen Nontoxic? I treated the COOLA Sunless Tan Luminizing Body Serum and loved it! It’s 70% organic, Ecocert Ceritifed & 99% natural. The Sunless Tan serum contains pearlescent mica for a sunlit golden shimmer, & sugar-beet derived DHA for that post-vacation radiance- with a pina colada scent. The COOLA Makeup Setting Spray is such a lifesaver if you need easy reapplication of sunscreen over makeup. When I’m out and about with a face of makeup on and need to be reapplying sunscreen every 2 hours I don’t want to ruin all my makeup by rubbing in sunscreen. I spray about 5 times all over my face while keeping my eyes closed (very important as it’ll burn your eyes) and voila I stay protected for a few more hours. The cons of the COOLA Makeup Sunscreen Spray are that it’s not a mineral sunscreen and contains a lot of alcohol. The scent of alcohol is very strong and you need to be careful it doesn’t get in your eyes.
