Buying advice

When choosing a kids sunscreen, prioritize broad-spectrum protection (UVA & UVB), water resistance, and a formulation suited to your child's skin type. Mineral (zinc oxide or titanium dioxide) options are gentler for sensitive skin, while spray formats offer convenience but require thorough application. Consider price per ounce, especially for frequent reapplication, and look for reef-safe formulas if you’ll be near water.
