Love it but....

Love this stuff but hate the packaging. For the price you would think the bottle wouldn't crack during traveling or even spraying it! Every bottle I bought cracked & leaked everywhere

Quick Take: natural
Ive been maintaining a base tan for a few weeks now and needed something that would take my tan to the next level. The answer was Hampton Sun's spf 15 tanning gel! In about a week, i was already receiving compliments about how healthy my tan looked. I love this product because im not left with greasy - looking skin and i maintain my perfect summer glow!

Quick Take: blends in easily, glossy, great smell
I bought this last summer on a whim for a beach trip and am so glad I did! It smells fantastic and puts the perfect amount of gloss on your skin to make it look nice. It did a good job preventing sunburn as well. However, sand sticks to it easily.

Quick Take: blends in easily, greasy, nice scent
I bought this on a whim to (to get free shipping) and it was a nice bonus, but nothing spectacular. The scent is delightful but it's so oily that I can only really use it at the beach. Like all tanning oils, you really need to rub it in and it tends to build up on the nozzle which gets the whole bottle greasy :-\

Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily
This sunscreen works great! I have fair skin and burn easily. I used this my first few days of sun for the summer (when I'm ghostly white) and did not burn at all after several hours in the sun. For me, the key is to reapply at least 45 mins to 1 hour.
The reason I gave it 4 stars is because although it's a spray, you do have to rub it in. Otherwise you'll just have concentrated patches of sunscreen on your skin. Also, I was spraying it on and the container cracked down the side for no reason. I didn't drop it, it just cracked while I was spraying. So now I have to keep it upright or it will leak all over the place. This happened the 3rd day I used it. I think it was just a dud.
The smell is GREAT, and it feels lightweight. Almost everyone asked me what the bottle was. I suppose because it doesn't looke like a typical sunscreen - more like a cologne bottle or something. I got tired of saying "it's my sunscreen" repeatedly.
Overall, great product. I would definitely purchase again!

By far the best
-05.25.11
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily, does not cause clogged pores or break outs
This is an outstanding product. I have skin that is prone to break out and clogged pores and have always had a lot of trouble with sun products--even though that claim to be non-clogging and pore friendly. This product is incredible. My skin was amazing all day during use, but most importantly the next day 9when i usually end up having clogged pores or break outs after use sun products). Like no other product I have tried, and i have tried MANY. Highly recommended.

Quick Take: non-greasy, easy application
I recently got back from FL, and this was a lifesaver! My goal for myself and my family was "no sunburn", and we achieved it. This was great for after the beach, after you've slathered on the SPF 55 (then washed it off in the ocean), but you're going back out in the hot sun - just a spritz on arms, legs, chest - done! Gives a nice sheen, great smell, and I think the small bottle will last a long time. The size is great for travel too. Now I use it at home before going out to play with my son. I'm a lazy sunscreen user so the application is great for me.

Light with fresh Scent
-04.28.11
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily
I kept hearing rave reviews of Hampton Sun and thought I'd give it a try. If you're looking for something that is scent free this may not be for you but it definitely doesn't stain your clothes like some other spray-on sunscreens. I had applied this after shaving and it did not sting nor burn. If you do get the travel size I highly suggest to get several bottles because I went thru one in just two days (spent several hours at the beach each time).

Great smell
-04.27.11
Quick Take: non-greasy, blends in easily
I really like this product because of the smell and the texture. My only issue with it and the reason why I only gave it 4 stars is that it didn't protect me from the sun at all. I burned within 5 minutes. I have to definitely use SPF 30 at least. But I will continue to use it once I have a bit of a tan base or when the sun is not as strong, like after 4pm :)

This is the perfect sunscreen! It's so light and absorbs into the skin instantly. You don't get that smelly, greasy feel on your skin like you do with other lotions. And this sprays on! I am going to buy more of this!!

Quick Take: natural, blends in easily, smells fantastic
I haven't gotten to see how well it works yet, as we're not going to Mexico for a month, but I've tried it out and love the smell. I've been using Hampton Sun exclusively the last few times we've been to the Caribbean and have not been disappointed.
It seem to be light, fine mist, great smell, great coverage, just like their other products.

Very Nice product..
-08.29.10
Quick Take: natural, blends in easily
The Hampton Sun SPF 15 is more of an oil than a gel, I'd say. It goes on nicely, preserves your tan and smells divine. Use another sunscreen for safe sun exposure. This is more of an "after tan" product. It is worth it, but the packaging needs to be improved as our bottle arrived cracked. Other than that, this is a nice oil and I would recommend it.

This product is a great buy, I am an African-American female and I like to work on my skin tone when I am in the sun. I took this to Myrtle Beach last month while on vacation and I love the results, it brought out the reddish undertones in my skin with out burning(yes I burn). I will be purchasing the larger size for next summer. Get it while it hot ladies!!!

Waste of money
-08.18.10
I wouldn't use this stuff on a daily basis because it's such a low SPF. Their description it is inaccurate, it is greasy and oily. It has a light tint and little shimmer to it as well. The only good thing I can say is that it does have a pleasant scent. Other than that this stuff is not much more than baby oil with iodine in it like we used to use many years ago.
