BABY SUNSCREEN SKIN

Olive oil conditions and moisturizes skin naturally and contributes to skin elasticity.

Our certified organic extra virgin olive oil is obtained from the first pressing of the olive and left in its natural unrefined state. The location and unique geological environment of the source ensures consistently pure water, which has been consumed by humans for countless generations. Eldorado Springs is one of the world’s purest natural sources of water, which is not chemically treated in any way.

We use only Eldorado Springs artesian water, which is purer because the confining layers of rock and clay impede the movement of contamination. We use non-nano, uncoated, French process Zinc Oxide as our sole active sunscreen ingredient, and all our sunscreens contain 25% - the most of any brand.ĮWG Rating: 2 Origin > USA 2.

Zinc oxide holds tight to its electrons when it absorbs UV energy, limiting the creation of free radicals that cause oxidative damage and increase the risk of skin cancer. The broadest spectrum UVA/UVB reflector that’s FDA-approved for sunscreen use, zinc oxide is also the only FDA-approved active ingredient for use on children under 6 months of age. Zinc oxide absorbs UV energy via bandgap absorption and reflects and scatters in the visible spectrum, preventing skin penetration and cell damage. It’s a better story and ultimately, better for the planet. I know it’s sometimes more profitable in the short term to sell “kids” and “adults” products because you get the consumer to buy both, but when you have something that’s this safe and actually works on every member of the family.I’d lean into that.

As an environmentally conscious company, I think it would make more sense to market them as one “All-family” sunscreen in a bigger bottle it would have spared the environment the additional plastic tube, plus it’s easier to do a run of one product than change your packaging setup for two (yes, I work in consumer packaged goods). Bottom line is, this is the only thing I will put on my child for extended outdoor play, and I felt very confident in its performance and the ingredients.The one thing that bothers me is that I could discern no difference between the “regular” sunscreen and the “kids” version I purchased both. The same thing happens with all sunscreen, but I never thought about it quite so much until confronted with a visual. The good thing is, because this is zinc, you can see those areas getting exposed and reapply accordingly.

The only issue is if a suit strap or rash guard rubs against it, or you have a spot where a repetitive motion is occurring (like the crook of your arm/top of forearm while building a sand castle), you’ll lose sunblock from this area sooner simply because it’s being rubbed off. Granted, I reapplied faithfully every 90 minutes, and we had a sunshade. We were on the Gulf Coast of the US for a beach trip, and it was windy no worries about losing a spray sunscreen to the wind! It’s also a little closer to the equator and therefore easier to roast under the sun, but I was so happy that he didn’t. I absolutely love the very limited amount of ingredients in this product and my toddler’s sensitive skin didn’t at all react. For zinc sunscreen, I found this to leave a little less mess behind than others I’ve used.
