Lovely texture but leaves yellow marks on clothes.
I really like the velvety texture and vanilla scent of the great barrier spf 50 sunscreen. It applies well and has a silky texture. The only problem is, I noticed it leaves yellow marks on my clothes which have not washed out. My new white Tala t shirt has stained with two large patches of yellow and I've tried washing it twice on 40 degrees but hasn't come out. Upset about this. Having read reviews since, seems other people experienced the same thing with yellow stainage. Hopefully the ingredients can improve to prevent this issue, as it stands I won't be buying it again and the one I have left will just use on face, arms and legs.

Hi Penny,
Thank you for your review.
We're so glad you’re enjoying the texture and scent of our Great Barrier Sun Lotion offers, and completely understand any frustration with staining.
As noted on our website, we do give a heads-up that yellow marks can occasionally occur due to UV filters reacting with certain fabrics, especially lighter colours. To help prevent this, we recommend allowing the sun lotion to fully absorb into the skin before getting dressed.
If staining does happen, we suggest treating it with a generous amount of detergent or stain remover. For white fabrics, applying hand sanitiser directly to the stain before washing can be particularly effective.
If you would like any further guidance in regards to your feedback, please do pop us an email at tp@tropicskincare.com.💚
