Always do your own research!! My husband asked me what the ingredients were in this sunscreen and I was shocked that I didn’t actually know. I assumed they were safe, since it’s a reputable brand advertising “mineral sunscreen” and “organic ingredients” HOWEVER one of the active ingredients, Octinoxate, is proven to be horrible for humans; it messes with hormones, is rapidly absorbed by the skin and can be found in your blood, urine and breast milk. If that’s not enough, it is also toxic to coral reefs- to the point that many foreign resorts will not allow the use of sunscreens with this chemical in it. Yes- CHEMICAL. THIS IS NOT A MINERAL SUNSCREEN. Octinoxate is made from sulfuric acid. And then you rub this into your baby’s sensitive skin?! Yeah right.You should read more about this horrible chemical on google before you choose to purchase this product. Unfortunately you can’t trust the label of products nowadays. Read more

Color:This sunblock is white (see photo of two pumps of sunblock on my hand). Bright white. It is easy to see where sunblock is applied. Once applied you can see a slight shine but isn’t “white” (see sunblock applied to two different faces - notice lack of “white” sunblock when rubbed in).Texture:This sunblock is runny. It easy pumps out of the bottle so is not as thick as the “tube” version of The Babyganics Sunblock. The runny texture makes application slightly more easy since it spreads and rubs in easily.Application:This sunblock is easy to apply. Just pump out he sunblock on hand or relevant part of body and rub into the skin. It doesn’t take too long to rub into skin (but much more time than a spray sunblock). See photo of arms, right has sunblock applied and is slightly shiny - none on left arm.Wet Skin Application:The biggest “con” about this product, is that it doesn’t apply well to wet skin. So application at the pool, beach, or on sweaty kids is difficult. If you attempt to apply to wet skin it runs off and just swears around white streaks of sunblock.Bottle:The bottle is about 8” tall and has two clear lids. I always find the larger outer lid missing when I throw in my swim bag or diaper bag but it doesn’t really seem necessary and the small inner lid stays tight. The sunblock comes out by pumping the top. See photos of size and front and back of bottle.Protection:We live at about 6900ft so sunblock when outside even for small amounts of time is a must. I. Tend to reapply after a couple (2ish) hours and haven’t had a burn or real redness while using this product.Overall:I have been using this sunblock for years on my littles and myself. Great sunblock. I deducted a star for application on wet or damp skin (it’s difficult if not impossible to apply). But other than that this is a great product. I can also find in local stores when necessary. We do use the Babyganics sunblock stick as well - it is much thicker and harder to rub completely in but great for face or little hands helping as it doesn’t tend to get in eyes. I didn’t much like the tube version of this sunblock as it’s too thick for quick application on wiggly kids.***Please let me know if you found my review helpful by clicking the “helpful” button below.

Recently, I went on a three month tour of "safer" sunscreens and sunblocks using the EWG website. I tried 6-7 of the options that ranked well (1's and 2's on EWG) and were available on Amazon. The only one that worked for me (my criteria below) was Babyganics partially chemical based (+zinc oxide) formula. I had to settle with a "moderately" hazardous sunscreen (per EWG) because all of the sunblocks I tried (non chemical) left me looking like a ghost no matter how much time and effort I took to rub in the lotion. So that appears to be the compromise: look quite pale using the safest sunblocks or use something a bit less safe that doesn't show. I'm not vain, but I also don't like having pretty white residue showing all over me.My criteria for a sunscreen: must be able to rub in and not be visible within a few minutes on face, neck, arms, and legs; must not leave the skin oily; must not come off easily with sweat and burn the eyes; must be relatively easy rub into hairy areas without leaving residue (scruff on face, hair on arms/legs). Babyganics satisfied the criteria and is safer than the average, better known brand name sunscreens on the market.I have yet to find a bette option - but hope to find something, eventually, that is less chemical based that also rubs in relatively easy.

Absolutely livid! We've used these products for years. I ordered it again for the summer. We had our first beach day. I applied a generous amount when we got to the beach and let it dry for 30 minutes before he got in the water then reapplied 3 hours later when I noticed he was getting some color. Comes home with sun poisoning! My poor kid is in so much pain. We will never buy this again!Update: I posted the original review just as he started blistering. I had no idea how bad it would get. Worst week of our lives. He didn't sleep he couldn't move he just cried and asked me why this was happening to him. His doctor put him on steroids and we had to do lots of cool baths and lotions just to get him some relief.Since my last update I learned that this is possibly a bootleg product being sold on Amazon. I have been using this product for years always bought from the store. This was our first time purchasing on it on Amazon. I am disgusted in how horribly this product failed my son and the thought that someone could sell a bootleg item for kids that need it! If this is a bootleg situation Amazon needs to handle this immediately!Children will suffer like mine did! Read more

I brought this when I went with a group to Hawaii, everyone brought all kinds of expensive sunscreen and everyone ended up using mine!! Not just for babies. Goes on light, not irritating, and works (even on my red-headed super pale Irish friends). Read more
