Bullfrog is absolutely the best. If I apply it, it protects. I can remember the first time I ever used it...Torrance, CA. Fishing on the pier, and I was getting burned. Asked one of the merchants on the pier what they recommended. Bullfrog was unnanimous. It was what the surfers used, and it didn't wash off for 8 hours without soap & water. I had that first bottle for about three years. Then, I found it in more retail stores. My biggest gripe: you had to rub it in again after 5 minutes to "activate" it. Sometimes I forgot. But now, it seems most of the Bullfrog is lotion that doesn't need reminding and it's still just as effective. I am Italian and Lebanese with some sharp Caucasian thrown in there, and I'm allergic to the sun! Yet, I tan beautifully when I use my Bullfrog. If I miss a spot when applying, that's what burns. Otherwise, I'm always protected. I tell everyone and yet they still use other products. Too bad for them. I'm with you Bullfrog, to the end. You're MY Prince in shining armor!

My allergic reaction to bullfrog was terrible. I'll have scars on my arms where the skin opened and bled. I'm back to shiseido for good.

My brother is very fair and tried all kinds of sun blocks before he found this one. It works great for him and for my boys. I have an allergy to Bullfrog - well - something in it I'm sure. If anyone uses this and their eyes start swelling up, use soap and wash it off and also take Benadryl. Otherwise, I say it's a thumbs up sun screen.
