Sunscreen

With the warmer months fast approaching and the ability to spend more time outside (yay), what is the best waterproof sunscreen for your babies/kids you all have found that you really like? (and that really works)

Thanks for your input all!

I've always used Water Babies by Coppertone.

 

I've been putting Aveeno Baby spf 55 on the boys. I'm not sure how good it is in the water yet and it turns white when they sweat, but it keeps them from getting burned.

 

I'm a No-Ad girl and so are my kids.

I'm a No-Ad girl too! I didn't know they made babies/kids lotion! Thanks Jenny!

ETA: Last year we just used the generic Target brand for their bodies and I had a Coppertone Babies Stick that we used on their faces. But I think I'll be finding myself some baby No-Ad now!

 

I used Blue Lizard last year and will again this year. It doesn't say it is waterproof, but we have to wash them several times to get it off, so I'd say it is pretty waterproof. One time DH put it in their hair and we had to wash it 5 times to get it out!

 

After ready some articles last summer about the effectiveness of different children's sunscreens, we used California Baby and will use it again this year. Their bug lotion is really good too.

 

We used Mustela this past week at the beach

Mustela for faces, neck, and trunks and Water Babies for the limbs. For some reason Mustela is the only thing my DD can wear on her face without breaking out so I just do it for the boys too.
