Otherwise, let's get into the results!įull disclosure: Some of these sunscreens, including the Baby Bum, ThinkBaby, and Babyganics varieties, were sent to us as free test samples by the manufacturer.
To find the best sunscreens your little one, we considered several factors in our reviews: chemical exposure, sunscreen effectiveness, length of protection, resilience during water play, the difficulty of application, oily hand-feel, and of course, price! For more details about how we considered these factors in our hands-on reviews, scroll down to the bottom of this page. Why no sunscreen sprays? Spray sunscreen can catch fire, children can inhale their harmful chemicals, and it's difficult to see areas you've missed during application (resulting in higher sunburn risk). In line with the Food and Drug Administration's guidance (FDA) and AAP, we strongly recommend using mineral-based sunscreen lotions rather than sprays. Given recent scientific results demonstrating that all active sunscreen ingredients (avobenzone, oxybenzone, octocrylene, homosalate, octisalate, and octinoxate) are absorbed into the bloodstream and remain detectable for several days, parents are searching for relatively low-risk sunscreens without exposing their children to harsh chemicals. Once your infant is over 6 months, the AAP recommends applying sunscreen to all areas of the body. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that when infants younger than 6 months cannot be fully clothed or kept in the shade, to apply sunscreen on any exposed skin.
