Best Kid & Baby Sunscreen Picks from Parents

Stephanie W. said:  This SPF 30 mineral sunscreen is unscented and made specifically for your baby's skin. It's the best baby sunscreen because it not only protects your little one's skin from the sun, it's made with antioxidants, vitamins and botanicals to soothe and moisturize!

This effective mineral-based sunscreen is great for sensitive skin and is water resistant for up to 80 minutes. Titanium dioxide provides a physical barrier for UVA and UVB broad spectrum protection. This product has received numerous awards and has been a top scoring safe sunscreen pick by the Environmental Working Group.

Kelly R said:  I have tried a lot of natural sunscreens for kids, and this is the one that I keep buying over and over again. It is broad-spectrum (blocks UVA and UVB rays), rubs in well, has good ingredients, and is an approved size for carrying on when we fly. This brand has sunscreen options for baby, kids, and adults. The base formulation is the same for all of them and only the scents differ, so you can't go wrong with any of them.

Erynn said:  Goddess Garden natural sunscreen for babies uses non-nano zinc for sun protection and pure, plant-powered ingredients. They have developed their formula to be ultra-sheer and easier to apply, and it's gentle enough for sensitive skin.

This SPF 50 zinc oxide sunscreen formula from Aveeno is gentle and mild for sensitive skin, and provides broad spectrum protection. It’s also non-greasy and water resistant for 80 minutes.

Jennie Utsinger said:  A new favorite in our home is TruKid's Sunny Days Sunscreen. Rated well by the EWG, this natural sunscreen for kids is phthalate and paraben free and reef-friendly, so is a great choice to use on beach days. Even better, it doesn't irritate our sensitive skin and rubs in well in relation to other natural sunscreens.

Kelly R said:  Sunnyscreen lotion from Supergoop offers a nourishing non-nano mineral formula perfect for babies and kids. Fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, it's great for sensitive skin.

Kelly R said:  Supergoop Sunnyscreen is designed for babies and toddlers, but works great for anyone looking for a 100% mineral formula. This stick glides on easily (great for faces!) and is easy to stash in a pocket or bag.

Brigitte Nohra Miller said:  This doctor developed and EWG-recommended sunscreen is my pick for the best baby sunscreen because it is safe for babies 0+ months old. The safe mineral formula is enriched with aloe and green tea extract, providing extra protection and and a soothing soft touch.

Amy S. said:  I’ve tried a billion sunscreens, and I have to say that this is my favorite for both kids and adults. It looks, feels, and smells like a luxurious lotion. It blends in easily and stays on well.
