Sunscreen and Sunblock ?

Do you use Sunscreen or Sunblock. I have been reading that sunblock is better.  Bader is labeled as a suncreen but their main ingredient is zinc oxide which would make it a sunblock?

 

What are you all using? I know Badger is a popular choice. Do you use the regular on your face as well or do you use the one specifically for the face? What about California Baby?

Do you know of any natural sunblocks that spray on? I don't mind rubbing the kiddo down but I am used to spraying myself down daily to make sure I have protection, but haven't seen any.

Thanks!

    Hi, Iffer! :)

    We're using Episencial this year. We've been using their body/hair wash & lotion for a while and really like it, so I figured we'd do the sunscreen too. Their stuff is really gentle and the sunscreen rubs in easily. SafeMama gave it pretty high marks.

    We've used CA Baby in the past but stopped using their stuff when they reformulated.

    I know it! I don't get on as much, but enough to notice your absence. I am still waiting to hear about this new job!

    We use Badger sunscreen for our son because I felt like it was the safest I could find on the market. For myself, I usually use thinksport. Goddess Garden makes a spray-on natural sunscreen, but I've never used it.
