Whether you’re planning on heading to the beach this weekend or just spending some time outdoors, the first thing you need to do is get yourself a sunblock cream. Summer is officially here and you and your family need to protect your skin. There are an outstanding number of sun protection lotions on the market but these are my top organic/natural ones specifically designed for kids and babies. JĀSÖN Sun Kids Sunscreen: I know many parents are huge fans of Jason products and rightly so because they are pretty awesome albeit not organic. This sunblock boasts a 45 broad spectrum SPF, which means it will protect your child’s skin from both UVA and UVB rays. Also infused with chamomile and calendula extracts. Not recommended for babies under six months old.
ALPHANOVA bébé: I think this is new to the market as I’ve never come across this French brand which is meant to be brilliant and a leading suncare product name in Europe. Suitable for babies as well as older kids, the products are 99% natural and organic. No parabens, chemical filters or nanoparticles. Sounds promising.
Child’s Farm Sun Cream: I like Child’s Farm products. Especially the body washes and bubble bath ones because they are specifically designed for kids with sensitive and eczema-prone skin which means that Georgie can still have the odd bubble bath without any irritations. The same goes for this sun cream so it seems like the obvious choice this summer. Not suitable for babies.
