Coppertone Sport Sunblock Lotion SPF 30 is a top sunscreen choice for active sports enthusiasts. Users at TotalBeauty.com, Drugstore.com and MakeupAlley.com give the formula high ratings for its nongreasy feel and high level of protection. Several reviewers say that the sunscreen prevents sunburns for long periods of time and stays put even when wet and sweaty. This is especially important if you are active in sports or other sweaty activities, because many sunscreens have a tendency to drip into the eye area and cause a burning sensation. Coppertone sunscreen is also easy to apply and absorbs quickly. Paula Begoun, beauty expert and author of "Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me," says the formula is lightweight and provides good UVA and UVB protection. That's because it contains broad-spectrum ingredients, including avobenzone and oxybenzone. Reviewers say all Coppertone Sport Sunblock Lotion formulas (SPF 15, 30, 50, 80 and 100) are good options, but the SPF 30 formula is reviewed more often.

We found the most thorough review of Coppertone Sport Sunblock Lotion at Beautypedia.com, Begoun's online database of product reviews. Here Begoun rates sunscreens based on the proven efficacy and safety of their ingredients. User reviews at Drugstore.com, TotalBeauty.com and MakeupAlley.com offer insight into consumer satisfaction.
