Spring is finally here and we are so excited to get back outside! And although that sunshine and fresh air are good for the soul, we still need to protect our skin. It is the largest organ of the body after all. Sunscreen is a summer staple for all the mamas, just trying to keep that sweet sensitive baby skin safe. But while it may be offering sun protection, is it actually safe itself?
The Environmental Working Group has an entire guide to sunscreen but it's pretty in depth and extensive. So I did the homework for you. Unfortunately, like many a skincare product, sunscreen can and often does contain harmful ingredients. It's not something we tend to think about when using a product that we think is protecting us. So first thing first, I made sure each of these sunscreen options for little ones has a clean rating. No scary safe. Check. Then I read reviews. As good as they get. Check. And of course I read further info. from the people who matter most. Moms. They approve. Check. I've put together this list of the top rated, best sunscreens for kids at various price points. Of course you should always take extra precautions like limiting sun exposure, wearing hats and sunglasses and staying hydrated. But rest assured these products safely protect that precious baby skin.
