Sunscreen 5.99

When is it OK to put sunscreen on their faces? LO started swim school last week and she can't exactly wear a hat since they go underwater. I worry about her little face burning up in the fierce Florida sun.

Re: Sunscreen 5.99

  • I have been putting sunscreen on Ty's face and keeping a hat on him. I didn't know I shouldn't be??

  • I put sunscreen on Aiden's face. My pedi said it was ok and much better than him burning.

  • OK, good. I thought I remembered at her 9 month they said to avoid the face. I could be wrong. I feel like that was a long time ago.

  • I don't think there's any reason you shouldn't put it on their face? I use a sunscreen stick for his face, it's easier than cream.

  • I put on the face too

  • I basically bathe her in sunscreen, since we practically glow under blacklight.

  • At our 9 mo appt, the ped said use lots and lots of sunscreen when we go out. They didn't mention avoiding the face at all.
  • I put the lotion on it's face.

    @asbromle for whatever reason, I giggled that you referred to your son as "it" hehe :)
    I think I need to go to sleep
    I was thinking of Joe Dirt when I wrote it, lol.

    I thought it was a Silence of the Lambs reference! And I'll just chime in that I put sunscreen on DD's face. I just avoid hands and feet since she'll put those in her mouth and I don't want her eating it.

  • @KTZ17‌ that would be the classier movie that I should've been thinking of, but nope.
