what sunscreen do you use on your LO?

Previously we used neutrogena baby because of DD's sensitive skin, and it got great reviews - but I feel like it's time we switched to something for kids.

Any suggestions?  I don't even know what to look for other than broad spectrum coverage.

    I use Playtime Pals by Baby Blanket. It is a spray but goes on white so I can tell I get every spot. Not a fan of the clear sprays since you can't really see if you missed anywhere.

    Dillon does not have sensitive skin though. 

    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.

    We use California Baby.  I think it's supposed to only have 2 ingredients but hte names of them are escaping me right now.  Maybe someone else will chime in with the answer!

    I think we have a neutrogena kids spray. I like the spray because its easy to get nice coverage. I use a cream for the face and head though.

    This is the kind I use

    I looked at the info on the Environmental Working Group website: https://breakingnews.ewg.org/2011sunscreen/

    and decided on California Baby.

    We use badger (sunblock and stick for face).  I think it was a bit less expensive than CA Baby.  Alba botanicals is another good (but less expensive) option.

    We looked up the EWG too and decided on Coppertone Sensitive Skin Sunscreen Lotion, SPF 50 because it was easy to find locally and still rated well

    A friend of mine who is a pediatric dermatologist recommended Blue Lizard Baby which is what we've used since 6 months.  We just bought a new bottle and I think it's the regular Blue Lizard.
