Any "safe" spray sunblocks?

dmathis10

I know all the requirements for what's considered a "safe" sunblock for kids, I've checked out the EWG website, etc.  I've been using Blue Lizard for my kids (almost 2 and 4). We are in a hurry in the morning to get to daycare, so a spray would be so much more convenient. AND, when we are at the beach, it's extremely difficult to reapply Blue Lizard when they have sand all over them - and the sand is impossible to get completely off.  Is there a "safe" aerosol spray sunblock that exists? I bought some Babyganics spray lotion, but it's not aerosol and still has to be rubbed in quite a bit, just like lotion.

I have never seen a "safe" spray on sunblock.

Only slightly off-topic.  bring some cornstarch with you to the beach.  Rub some on your hands and then rub off the sand.  It will come completely off.

blu-eyedwife I've also heard baby powder is good for getting sand off, but haven't tried it...I should because we have a shitton from my shower from my couponing SIL who didn't get that you aren't actually supposed to use it on babies...

Yup - works the same way.  If you have it, use it.  I use cornstarch because its cheaper than baby powder.
