I use Alba Botanica on LO and it works great but we go through sunscreen like water during the summer (lots of swimming and outdoor play) and the stuff costs a lot for 4 ozs...:-)
Do you use Coppertone, Neutrogena or a similar brand sunscreen on your LO?

We use neutrogena dry touch 85 SPF. I like that it is not greasy, even on my face, and I use it on my toddler too.

I bought some Johnson & Johnson on sale and we hate it, it's so thick and hard to spread! I can't wait for my next Honest delivery to arrive.

I use California Baby. It's not cheap, but a little goes a long way.

Badger is pretty inexpensive (not cheap, but not pricey) and it's an EWG 2!! I love it for my LO.

@mrsmate: I agree! I hate that J&J stuff!
We use the neutrogeena and the banan boat. Both mineral based

@Mrs. Pen: Dang, maybe I use too much? 
Maybe one 4 oz tube a month. We swim and play in the sprinklers a lot!

@autumnlove: I think ours is a 6oz tube? I get it from target - it appears to be more than twice the price online.

@autumnlove: You're probably not using too much. Most people use too little. http://www.aad.org/media-resources/stats-and-facts/prevention-and-care/sunscreens

@autumnlove: I have the gigantic one and t was $35 at target I think. Today I used about 3 pea-sized amounts to cover elbows and knees down and face. (I am totally anal about completely covering.)

@Rubies: I'm gonna try that one! Is it easy to apply on your LO's skin?

@autumnlove: yep easy but still has that sunscreeny feeling.

@autumnlove: We use a LOT too. Of all the sunscreens, I like bagder best. Have tried Calif. baby, badger, babyganics, aveeno, kidsport, coppertone. I didn't like Aveeno -splotches my son's face.
