TruKid Eczema SPF30 Unscented 3.4oz Baby Sunscreen, Natural Ingredients Kids Sunscreen, Reef-Friendly Travel Size Beach Defense for Kids, Toddlers, Babies & Adults

My kids and I have sensitive skin and eczema and this is the sunblock I have settled on for us. Personally, I used to use La Roche Posay but I read about some sunblock ingredients are absorbed in the blood stream and accumulate there, and the active ingredient in the La Roche Posay sunblock I was using at the time was one of those ingredients! So since then I stopped using La Roche Posay and have tried a few zinc and titanium oxide based sunblocks. I am tan and this leaves a white cast on me, but it's not as bad as some other zinc/titanium oxide sunblocks, and for me I would rather have a white cast than get sun damage or have sunblock ingredients accumulate in my body or my kids bodies. Ever-Eden has a non-nano zinc sunblock that doesn't leave as much of a white cast, it's much more expensive than this sunblock though. My husband is pale and doesn't have sensitive skin but I gave this sunblock to him to use for an outdoor party he was going to, and other people got sunburned and he didn't. So this sunblock works.

It doesn’t irritate their skin.

This is my favorite sunscreen. It works at least as good/if not better as any others I've tried, nice orange-like scent, not oily, not excessively thick, effectiveness is immediate. - added bonus the company uses biodegradable packing noodles (dissolve under water) and ships quickly for reasonable cost. I live in Hawaii and paid less than $5 to ship three tubes of it. It got here in less than a week.In my search to find the best "healthy" sunscreen I have tried several and will summarize them in case anyone else is shopping around for the perfect sunscreen/sun protection. I have learned a lot thru trial and error and will share that in the case that it may help save others the "error" part. The rest of this review is mostly about sunscreen in general or for those looking for extra info.Sunscreens I've tried:Badger - works ok but very oily, has to be applied 30 min prior to exposureLoving Naturals - works ok but VERY VERY oily, also has to be applied 30 mins prior. This is especially a problem if you apply it to children 30 min before leaving the house. I don't want my kids running around the house leaving oily sunscreen residue all over the furniture, etc.CA Baby - the is my 2nd favorite sunscreen. It works pretty good and is not oily like the above mentioned. However, it too needs to be applied 30 min prior. It is fairly thick and takes some effort to rub in, however I personally don't mind this. On the up side, sometimes you can find this locally (Target usually carries it in the summertime).Coppertone Water Babies Pure and Simple - this works ok, my biggest gripe about this is that (unlike the above mentioned) this sunscreen rates a "3/moderate health risk" with the EWG. No point in taking a larger risk than you need to. This sunscreen also seems to irritate one of my children's skin. The only reason I would buy this is if I was in a pinch and had to buy something from a local store and this was the best they had. Out of all the sunscreens I've mentioned this one is the easiest to find in stores.Here is the EWG's website for more info on their ratings...[...]Furthermore, it is critical that you follow the directions and apply the sunscreen up to 30 min in advance if stated. I have found lesser effectiveness when I have tried cutting corners to get outside sooner. Your skin needs to stay cool during this time or you will just sweat it off. Reapplication is also critical, and I have found that even with drying off and spending some time in the shade to allow the second coat to soak in it still doesn't work as good as the first application.We live in Hawaii where the sun is strong year round. I have found that one of the best things I can do to protect my young children is to keep them indoors or in the shade during the hottest part of the day. In addition to that my children always wear rash guards at the pool/beach, and I don't allow them to wear sleeveless shirts/dresses on days when they will be outside much. I like Coolibar" clothing for infants. Keep in mind that infants should be kept in the shade when possible and even then it is possible for them to get some sun on their delicate skin. I keep my 9 month old at home when I can, but when we go out to the pool/beach as a family I put her in protective clothing and apply sunscreen to her face and feet even when she is in the shade (she puts her hands in her mouth so much I usually don't do her hands).In short, Sunny Days is the best sunscreen I've tried and I use it all the time. However, sunscreen should not be your only line of defense. Clothing, shade and a little common sense should also come into play.Hope this helps someone ~ Aloha

Works very well but it's so thick that I find it hard to spread on my kid's face

I like this sunscreen for my kids with sensitive skin and also like that it doesn't leave a noticeable white cast. The texture is also nice. Not too sticky or tacky!

We initially bought this for a vacation to make sure it was reef safe and ever since then, we buy it whenever it runs out. This sunscreen smells amazing and for being a mineral sunscreen, it rubs into the skin fairly well. I highly recommend!

I really wish sunscreen companies would realize that darker skin tones also use sunscreen. This has the brightest white cast, it makes my son look blue.

This is the only sunscreen that does not completely dry out my daughter’s skin. Natural, no harmful chemicals, reef safe, excellent rating on Yuka and easy to apply. I won’t buy anything else!
