Thats great that all of you are using sun screen on your little ones! A persons chance of skin cancer increases if you have several sun burns during the childhood/teenage years. So dont forget about keeping your older kids protected too! And as adults, make sure you keep an eye on your skin for any unusual changes in moles or skin discolorations. Please dont delay or dismiss it. Go see a dermatologist right away.

Hi, I just thought I would pass on what I learned. My husband recently did a dermatology rotation and he asked the dermatologist what sun screen was best for babies. He said that it should say sun block, not sun screen and that it should have octinoxate and zinc oxide in it.

The ones I found that fit this were Aveno Baby and Disney Sun Pals Baby, by no add. Of course the no add stuff was much cheaper. It goes on a little greaser then the Aveno, but I thought it was fine.

Sorry so late to chime in, but Alexis is allergic to so many sunscreen including Coppertone and Banana Boat. Our MD recommended a new sunscreen called Blue Lizard we have been using it on Alexis without any reactions. You can it at CVS pharmacy or ask your local pharmacy to special order it.
