Children's sun cream

9 replies

mintmagnummm · 02/07/2018 14:05

I'm looking for a new suncream for my 6 year old son. Currently using the la Roche posay kids one which is great for protecting him (never burnt with this) BUT it's really greasy, stains clothes and fabrics, and stings his eyes! I desperately need recommendations please?

I like the soltan kids ones but they stain too. Just started using ultrasun and that’s good.

The Aldi factor 50 is fantastic and has 5 star UV protection. However it does stain, I think they all do.

The Nivea kids one doesn't stain.

I don't use a kid specific one on my seven year olds, we all use Ambre Solaire mositurising protection spray 50 for them 20 for us. Non greasy, doesn't stain, drys quickly.

Superdrug own brand Solait. Only one I’ve found that doesn’t leave yellow marks on clothes. 5 star UVA protection and normally on buy one get one half price. We were using the ALDI one before this but it stained clothes

Sunsense kids one is very good and doesn’t sting my children’s eyes. They end up all red and puffy with most other creams so we stick with this kne

Another vote for Aldi, really cheap, 5* UVA protection and great for sensitive/eczema prone skin!
