My ped told us if we couldn't avoid the sun, it was better to use sunscreen though than get a burn. We took a vacation to FL when DS was 4m and we used a little bit then, for times when were at the pool or the beach, when we couldn't always be under shade. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528782 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 12:46:10 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2528782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks all for the great recommendations! I did buy some Babyganics at Target &amp; we'll be trying it out today or tomorrow. I'm also shopping Amazon for some long sleeve rash guards/full suits &amp; another sun hat or 2. :happy: 👒🌞 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528771 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 12:37:55 +0000 alphagam84 2528771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Blue Lizard!

I tried Badger but thought it was much greasier and harder to rub in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528554 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 09:18:00 +0000 dagret 2528554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Getting on the "blue lizard and long sleeve rashguard" recommendation bandwagon. And a flaphappy hat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528438 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 08:22:39 +0000 Canoli 2528438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This year I bought Thinkbaby, California Baby, and Honest Company at the recommendations of others on here and the EWG. So far we tried out the Thinkbaby and liked it a lot. I didn't find it hard to put on at all.</p> <p>Not to thread jack but at what age do you all start putting sunscreen on your LO? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528434 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 08:19:49 +0000 snowjewelz 2528434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use Badger! I have the cream and also the face stick. Yes, you gotta do a little work to spread it, but I really like that haha so I can "see" the protection! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528239 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 21:56:24 +0000 Tanjowen 2528239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for Blue lizard, and as @catomd00: mentioned, definitely long sleeved rash guards. My LO lived in them last summer! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528232 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 21:46:00 +0000 Alba4 2528232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Badger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528187 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 20:38:39 +0000 catomd00 2528187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like badger and blue lizard. We also love long sleeve rash guards with UV protection so we don't have to apply as frequently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528185 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 20:38:31 +0000 Portboston 2528185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use Sierra Sage Solar Goo for the face and Acure Organics spray for the body. Both are highly rated on Gimmiethegoodstuff.org </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528163 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 20:11:48 +0000 Pancakes 2528163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Blue Lizard too, and it's also great for LOs with sensitive skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528149 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 19:52:38 +0000 rattles 2528149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Blue Lizard. </p> <p>My ped recommended that or California Baby, and Blue Lizard rubs in more easily than the other mineral based formulas we've tried and is more affordable too. It's paraben and fragrance free, not greasy, and has great ratings from EWG. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528105 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 19:13:34 +0000 Astro Bee 2528105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just bought Thinkbaby, based on the recommendations of others, and tried it out this weekend. I found it really easy to apply, and it has a pleasant scent. I had always heard that mineral-based sunscreens were hard to apply. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528096 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 19:04:27 +0000 QueensBee 2528096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been loving Babo sunscreens this year! We also use ThinkBaby and Honest, and are happy with them, but Babo is our fav.</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Babo-Botanicals-Continuous-Fragrance-Sunscreen/dp/B01ALT5MKW/ref=sr_1_7_a_it?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1461024179&#038;sr=8-7&#038;keywords=babo+sunscreen" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Babo-Botanicals-Continuous-Fragrance-Sunscreen/dp/B01ALT5MKW/ref=sr_1_7_a_it?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1461024179&#038;sr=8-7&#038;keywords=babo+sunscreen</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Babo-Botanicals-Clear-Zinc-Lotion/dp/B00HNNQLZ0/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1461024179&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=babo+sunscreen" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Babo-Botanicals-Clear-Zinc-Lotion/dp/B00HNNQLZ0/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1461024179&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=babo+sunscreen</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528087 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 18:36:39 +0000 jape14 2528087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Blue Lizard is our fave. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528081 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 18:20:26 +0000 Pumpkin Pie 2528081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just use babyganics.

I use neutrogena baby free and clear stick for their faces. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-baby#post-2528068 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 17:54:43 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2528068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since summer is coming I really need to get my little one some sunscreen. Recommend your favorites &amp; share what you like best about them. We aren't in an area where we probably need to use it every day, but I still prefer to use the safest products I can buy for baby. So far we try to wear loose-fitting lightweight long sleeves and pants, but I don't know if that it's going to work for much longer as it gets warmer, or if we go to the pool/beach. :-) </p>
