Sunscreen

Every time we are at the pedis, he stresses how fair E is and how she needs sunscreen every time we go outside.

Do you put sunscreen on LO every time you play outside?

Has anyone found a sunscreen for babies that goes on dry (or like regular lotion) that isn't sticky, messy, or sweat-inducing?

  • We don't do sunscreen every time we go out, but if he's going to be outside playing for a long period (playground, beach, festival, zoo) we'll put sunscreen on him.  We use either Neutrogena Pure and Free or Episencial.

  • We were told that unless they're spending long periods of time outside not to do sunscreen or sunblock. Our pedis have just suggested hats, lightweight jackets, or other ways of keeping them not in direct sunlight for too long.
  • Only if we will be outside for more than 2030 minutes so in the winter, never. I am very fair also and a big proponent of sunscreen use but we DO need some sunlight/vitamin D as well.
