Most people recognize the value of sunscreen as protection against harmful UV rays, which can cause skin cancer and promote wrinkles, creases, and other undesirable cosmetic conditions. Many, however, don’t like the way sunscreen looks or feels on their skin—especially heavy, greasy, residue-leaving sunscreen, which defines many second-rate versions. Such experiences can turn people off of sunscreen entirely, leaving them vulnerable to sun damage. The Coola line of sun-protection products aims to transform your notion of what a sunscreen can be by using high-quality formulations that nourish and protect your skin without a disagreeable feel or aroma. The Coola Reviews are an excellent way to learn more about the collection.

With the Coola Reviews, we here at SkinStore.com have assembled feedback from your fellow customers who’ve used these products. They offer a resource for you as you research options for good sun-care treatments: the chance to reap the fruit of a little empirical knowledge from your peers.

Coola Mineral Face SPF 30 Matte Cucumber

Age Group: 45-54Gender: FSkin Type: dry

Not good for dry skin! - 8/18/2011 10:48:55 AM I have a weird combination of very dry and sensitive skin & cystic acne. I use a retin A product to control the acne which means I shed a lot of skin. All to say, between that and having very dry skin already, when I put this product on it gets all caught up in the flakes and sits like a white mask on my face -- even after a good exfoliation with the Clarisonic. I didn't want it to go to waste so even in the middle of summer in order for it to be useable, I put a layer of Atopalm moisturizer on first and then a layer of the Coola.

Coola Mineral Face SPF 30 Matte Cucumber - 8/2/2011 12:33:49 PM I love Coola Mineral Face SPF 30. It's light and non-greasy making it perfect to wear under makeup. My skin is extremely sensitive and my pores clog very easily. After searching a number of years for an SPF that I could wear under makeup, this is it!

Coola Sport SPF 35 Citrus Mimosa

Age Group: 25-34Gender: FSkin Type: combination

Wonderful SunBLOCK - 7/21/2011 8:57:08 PM I really like this sunblock. It has a nice soft fragrance that isn't harsh to the senses. I used this all over my body (even the face) and it did not clog my pores. It is a sunblock so you will get the whole white effect when exposed to water but that is expected. As natural sun protection, I would definitely recommend this. I will be ordering the Matte Cucumber Face Sunblock soon enough and couldn't be more excited.

Coola Sport Liplux SPF 30 - Original Formula

Age Group: 35-44Gender: FSkin Type: combination

great for the beach! - 7/11/2011 6:55:01 AM This is a simple, no nonsense, lip protector. I love the lipstick like container-product twists up and is a wide neutral colored stick. It goes on smooth and invisible. lipstick goes over it well. It has just a slight citrus scent, nothing obvious. I think it would be great for men and kids also.

Coola Total Body SPF 30 Plumeria

Age Group: 45-54Gender: FSkin Type: combination

Smell turns foul - 6/19/2011 12:26:57 PM I had a sample of this and LOVED it, couldn't remember where I got it and hunted it down on internet and bought through SkinStore.com I was disappointed when I used it though because the smell I remembered loving, wasn't as pleasant and I noticed later in the day that my arms stunk! It leaves an unpleasant "aftertaste" for lack of a better word. I haven't laid out in the sun yet to test its effectiveness but will use it up and not reorder because of the smell. Plus its expensive and just doesn't have enough going for it for me to want to repurchase it. It does go on very nicely though, better than any other sunscreen I've used. If you can get past the smell then its great.

Coola Baby SPF 50 Unscented Moisturizer

Age Group: 35-44Gender: FSkin Type: sensitive

- 4/15/2011 3:40:33 AM I have to give this 4 stars because I'm not a baby (!) and also, I haven't had the opportunity to use it in extremely hot weather. I bought it because most sunscreens leave my sensitive skin in a rash. So far, this one hasn't. It's matt and not greasy, but quite heavy, so I only use it for my body. It's not 'sweaty' and it does feel like it is providing excellent protection.

Coola Sport SPF 45 Unscented

Age Group: 25-34Gender: FSkin Type: oily

Like it - 4/4/2011 12:30:34 PM I found this while looking for a daily facial sunscreen that wasn't too heavy. I bought it because I read good reviews and because the ingredients are safer than other brands. Although I like it and can only barely smell it, I will most likely only be using it while swimming or working out. It is just a little thicker than I had hoped and I prefer Neutrogena's Ultra Sheer sunscreen for daily use on my face. Coola also left a little shine that I felt the need to cover with powder. So I recommend buying it for use on body and for sports but not for daily use on your face.

Age Group: 25-34Gender: FSkin Type: combination

Worked for me - 3/8/2011 8:26:49 AM I have very oily and sensitive skin. This is the best primer I've tried, and helped my make up stay on for most of the day. The only pro was that it made my skin a little whiter than usual (I am very pale), but could be easily fixed with a bronzing powder.

Great sunblock! - 1/17/2011 7:23:34 AM I really like this sunblock, it is light enough and blends in easily. I like the fact they offer a fragrance-free version! I have combinaton skin and it makes me only slightly oiler later in the day, but that is just my skin I guess. I use some powder to eliminate the shine. I would recommend this brand!

Coola Sport SPF 45 Unscented

Age Group: 35-44Gender: FSkin Type: sensitive

One of the best sunscreens out there. - 4/8/2010 8:09:26 AM I am high risk for Melanoma, having lost a parent to it. I use sunscreen everyday on all exposed areas of skin, & have tried tons of different brands. Unlike a lot of sunscreens, this one works great for my body & face. It provides a nice high spf that lasts! It comes in an unscented formula & it doesn't break me out or make my sensitive/combination facial skin sting or itch. This product also does not seem to rub off on my leather shoulder bags and clothing like the majority of other brands do. Also i think it is cool that it has lots of natural ingredients in it. The ONLY con is that it is priced over $30 a tube & I go through sunscreen like water, so I have to occasionally supplement with drugstore brands.
