Recommend your baby sunscreen

Summers coming and it's time to invest in some sunscreen for LO. Does anyone have any recommendations? I was thinking the sunscreen they have at The Honest Co https://www.honest.com/bath-and-body/sunscreen-spf-30 but I'd prefer a higher SPF.

Re: Recommend your baby sunscreen

  • I just got back from a Florida beach. We used babyganics 50. DS is very fair and has sensitive skin.(eczema) He did not seem irritated from the sunscreen and he did not get any sun. I also bought a tube of California baby but I haven't used it yet.

  • I've used the Aveeno baby sunscreen and I love it! No problems at all ;)
  • We have baby aveeno too. I love it. It's lotion with the sunscreen. Doesn't seem to leave the thick greasy feeling.
  • I haven't purchased any yet, but at our last appointment, I did ask LO's pediatrician what she recommended.  She said that you can use a general-use formula as long as it is 30spf or higher, and that they're (baby vs adult) basically the same thing marketed differently.
