Usually you can't find these in the stick or spray options, just lotion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreenblock-in-lotion-or-stick-form#post-698999 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 11:41:29 +0000 autumnlove 698999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Alba Botanical Natural Sunscreen for kids.

I'll just buy smaller size but one stick and one lotion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreenblock-in-lotion-or-stick-form#post-698831 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 10:42:03 +0000 MrsHotDog 698831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had originally just bought the California Baby stick sunscreen but it was pretty difficult to cover my toddler so yesterday I bought the lotion. So I will do stick on her face and lotion everywhere else. </p> <p>Also, when we were at buybuy Baby yesterday, I found a 12 pack of miniature sunscreen lotions to throw in your diaper bag! I thought it was brilliant and I was suckered into spending the $12 but I thought it would be nice to have. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreenblock-in-lotion-or-stick-form#post-698814 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 10:37:28 +0000 regberadaisy 698814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mom's is it easier to apply sunscreen/block in lotion or stick form?</p> <p>I like the idea of lotion that I can smear and thin out. Sometimes sticks to me clump up in one area and is thick &amp; pasty so harder to smear evenly? </p>
