I purchased this sunscreen because I wanted something gentle and suitable for sensitive skin. The lotion applies smoothly and doesn’t have a strong scent, which I really appreciate. It does go on thicker than regular sunscreen, but it spreads evenly and absorbs well after rubbing it in. I like that it feels moisturizing and doesn’t leave skin feeling dry. This worked well for everyday outdoor use, and I felt comfortable using it knowing it’s made for sensitive skin. Overall, I’m happy with this sunscreen and would purchase it again. Read more

Yes, we do use shade and protective clothes at first place. My daughter’s eczema can vary from mild form, when skin looks dry and flaky, to severe form, when skin can be extremely irritated and red. Our dermatologist isn’t recommending using sunscreen for her, but there are situations when it’s better to use sunscreen than use nothing. Since her skin is more vulnerable to the sun’s damaging rays it was a challenge finding sunscreen that’ll work for her. Babo Botanicals was recommended to me in AT community. I tested it before use for allergic reaction such as rash, any form of breakout on the skin, itchiness, etc. So far so good! 🙏 PROS: It is SPF 50, which is perfect, and fragrance free. It’s non irritating, hypoallergenic sunscreen with mineral based ingredients. It doesn’t dry out skin, applies easily. I’d say even moisturizes and soothes! I usually apply it on top of Mustela Stelatopia balm. CONS: I wish the texture was lighter and not so greasy, you have to heavily wash it off your skin with soap. It is advertised as sheer, but still leaves white sticky layer on the skin and doesn’t provide weightless feel. It also stained our stroller, cleaning up with soap didn’t remove the stains. One more flaw - it’s not alcohol free. BOTTOM LINE: This is a good sunscreen, and it does what it’s supposed to do. It will keep your little one safe from the sun’s harmful UV rays. It can be used on baby's sensitive skin and eczema prone skin (in our case). This baby zinc sunscreen is free of fragrance & irritating chemicals. Despite the flaws, I’m very happy that it worked for us! And I would definitely recommend to give it a try, but for sure test it before use. I hope my review was helpful. Read more

USE: I use this product on my children who are both very fair skinned. I only use this from the neck down because I prefer to use the Babo Botanicals Baby Face Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 on their faces. The only reason is because they think it's fun to use the stick on their face. PROS: There are several factors to consider when I shop for baby sunscreen: active ingredients, waterproof, greasiness, sheerness, and ease of spreading. I love that Zinc Oxide is 100% the active ingredient, it holds its own to water and does not wash off, it is not so greasy that dirt will clump onto their skin but perhaps a bit of dust does stick if they go directly into the sand box after application/reapplication. It does turn them a one tint lighter but they are fair skinned and pure Zinc Oxide is white so that does concern me. It is easy to spread and although it kind of smells like play dough in my opinion I love that it is not filled with useless toxic scents. The lotion is applied to the backs of their hands and Babo has never been an issues with burning eyes. I used scent free CeraVe moisturizing spf 50 in a pinch once and my poor babies' eyes were stinging as soon as they rubbed them. I am glad there is no stinging with Babo! CONS: It is pricey. I am diligent about reapplying every 80-90 minutes. This small bottle didn't last the whole month with two babies. Thank goodness for the buy one get one half off deal. CONCLUSION: I would definitely recommend this product! When it comes to my kids and their comfort it's worth it to spend a little extra for peace of mind. Read more

I’ve been using this Babo Botanicals Mineral Sunscreen on my baby’s sensitive skin, and it works really well without causing irritation. The natural zinc oxide provides solid sun protection, and I love that it’s fragrance-free, water-resistant, and EWG verified, so I feel good about putting it on my little one. The lotion goes on smoothly and doesn’t leave a thick, chalky residue like some mineral sunscreens. It’s lightweight and absorbs fairly quickly, which is great for fidgety kids. One thing to note: if the bottle sits for a while and gets warm, the oil can separate, so be sure to give it a good shake before applying. That helps mix everything back together and keeps the sunscreen consistent. Overall, it’s a safe, effective option for babies and kids with sensitive skin, and I plan to keep using it all summer.

Nice clean sunscreen but knocked a star off for the outrageous price Read more

So I haven’t actually used this on a baby. I’ve used it on myself though and I really like it. It goes on easily, it didn’t leave a horrid white cast like a lot of mineral sunscreens do, and it kept me from burning. Read more

Our favorite sunscreen for the kids. Spreads in well and is gentle on my son’s eczema prone skin. The last batch we got separated a bit which was unusual for us, but otherwise we’ve been able to use this easily with both kids. We love using a makeup brush for easy application and our kids never complain when they’re wearing Babo sunscreen. We’ve purchased this time and again. Only wish it was a bit cheaper and they sold bigger bottles. Read more
