Neutrogena Sheer Zinc Oxide Kids Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ with UVA/UVB Protection, Water-Resistant for 80 Minutes, Paraben-, Dye-, Fragrance- & Tear Free, 3 fl. oz

We’ve been using this sunscreen for several years now. Really like that you can just roll it on, then easily rub in - makes it easy to apply sunscreen to my kids’ faces. Sun protection is good, but of course be sure to reapply.

Unfortunately, all of my sunscreens contained chemical spf, so I needed to find a pregnancy safe product fast. This isn’t greasy, rubs in, provides protection, and doesn’t require micellar water or scrubbing to remove. No weird smell or skin/ eye irritation, either.

One of the only sunscreens my sensitive skinned kiddo can use. A little goes a long way so it lasts a long while. It is a bit hard to rub in if your kid has dry skin though but that's pretty much expected with all sunscreens

2021 update: My family has been using this formulation for many years now. I chose it for the high (>20%) mineral content of zinc oxide, because that is the substance responsible for the sunscreen effect of this product. Unfortunately that is also the substance responsible for the white cast on the skin. Other brands typically have mineral content in amounts around 8-12% of the product. So although you may not get as white of a cast with those brands, you are also not getting as much of the sunscreen ingredient either. Another way manufacturers combat the white cast problem is to grind the minerals into ultra-fine particles: nanoparticles. There are downsides to this however: loss of UVA blockage, potential lung damage from inhalation of both manufacturing workers and users, possible coral reef and aquatic life disturbance. So, I expect and accept a mild white cast when using this because it is related to its effectiveness and probable lack of nanotization. When I care about the white cast, I use a drop or two of foundation with it. Otherwise, I leave it alone because after rubbing gently in, it’s not very noticeable. No problems with stickiness or tackiness a minute or so after applying and I’ve never had it sting my or my kids eyes probably because it stays put unlike many liquid formulas. I can also attest to its effectiveness as a sunscreen. We use it in the summertime by the beach and at the lake. In the winter and spring time we use it at 10,000 feet elevation while skiing. If we are going to be outdoors in the sun for any significant period of time, we use it then too. Does the job every time. We are diligent about reapplying after swimming or sweating. The pics I posted for comparison of stick sizes. Now go have fun in the sun...after putting on your sunscreen. ----------------------------------------------- Original post: My kid's skin is sensitive to chemical sunscreens so I get only ones made with mineral sunscreens. Sticks are much easier to apply on the face; less mess and hassle. The price of this large stick was off putting at first, but I got it because of the value in price per product; see pics. Very happily, I find it easier to apply than the smaller sticks. Takes less time to swipe on the face and anyone who has ever tried applying sun screen on the face of a child knows, less time to apply is a huge bonus!!! Same effectiveness in preventing sun burns as the smaller versions. I'm buying another one now.

Works really well. I'm taking off OnStar because it's incredibly hard to get this rubbed in. It leaves a pretty noticeable White coating on your skin. But after a while it does kind of soak in. I guess it's better than the poisonous sunscreens they sell nowadays. Also the bottle is not very big!

Yup a good sunscreen stick. Never gotten burned with it on. Easy to apply.

I tend to have an intense allergic reaction to most sunscreen. This has been the only sunscreen that I can use consistently without developing painful hives. The only con is that you will look like Casper the ghost. The push-up style applicator is really nice though because you don’t have to get your hands messy. It also makes application super easy and prevents you from wasting unnecessary Product.

Good protection but not really sheer, especially after a hot day

Excelente me fui al mar 3 días expuesta al sol y solo me queme un poquito y me expuse 2 horas seguidas. De que dice kids pero yo lo ocupe en mi jeje. Si es de los que te dejan blanco y es un poco pesado pero resiste el mar y bastante tiempo de verdad UNA MARAVILLA

easy on, wipes off and you know youve cover where you can see it

Er stond in de tekst neutragena sfeer zinc suncreen stick (2stuks) .. er is maar 1 geleverd in de verpakking. Kan dit even gecontroleerd worden? Mvg

Produto de ótima qualidade!!

I love it! It is slightly light in colour but spreads very easily and invisibly covers up even small blemishes. On and around your lips, it gives some extra volume to your mouth. Around your eyes, it makes them look a little brighter. It has zinc as a natural sunscreen, no perfume or taste so that's wonderful for the skin. I do put a layer of bio-cream underneath as I get dry skin easily. It stays on well even when you swim. And last but not least: because of it's size, it fits in any bag. You understand I use it for myself and I can't live without it :) !
