Sunscreen Search

I have been on the search for a more natural sunscreen for my kids. Can you believe all the chemicals they put in sunscreen? Also, my kids will barely stand still for the applications. So I stress about the application PLUS what’s in it! Not anymore…..Supergoop!â„¢ to the rescue.

Supergoop! sunscreen swipes are amazing. They are pre-moistened, paraben-free, water resistant wipes with SPF 30 and are great for my kids’ sensitive skin. Their SPF 30 Quickstick with vitamin C does the job quickly – no complaints here. The quick stick is 100% natural with no parabens, petrochemicals, phtlates, PABA, fragrances or chemical preservatives.  For mommy, they have SPF 30 everyday UV face and body moisturizing lotion that is water and sweat resistant. 

My 8 year old had some thoughts on Supergoop: “here is what I love about it: it’s not cold, doesn’t sting and it’s quick and it’s easy to apply – yeah say that”.  I do agree!

I found another great line – Mission Skincare. It’s great f you children play sports.

According to their web site MISSION Skincare® is the first and only line of Athlete-Engineered® Skincare products. It was founded in 2008 by a premier group of world-class athletes including Serena Williams, Steve Nash, David Wright, Mia Hamm, Amanda Beard, Sergio Garcia, and more.

The kids all-sport sunscreen with UVA/UVB protection is fast drying and goes on clear with no rubbing. The ultra sweatproof, waterproof formula is paraben and preservative free. My kids love it.

keep it clean and simple

Not all hand soaps are created equal (and natural).  I did not realize my favorite handsoap, Clean Well All Natural Antibacterial Foaming Handsoap, comes in so many scents. I have been buying the Orange Vanilla but thanks to the folks at Clean Well I am now testing out the Lavender, Spearmint Lime and Ginger Bergamot.  What?  You have not heard of Clean Well? Say it isn’t so. It is one of my favorites. It is an all natural handsoap that is safe and natural with no toxic chemicals, certified cruelty-free and not tested on animals. It is made with a revolutionary green technology that is a patented blend of essential oils to kill 99.99 % of germs on contact.  This kid friendly cleaner is free of Triclosan and alcohol. According to the Clean Well Web site Triclosan is a preservative chemical and endocrine disruptor.  They also are makers of the All-Natural Hand Sanitizer which comes in a spray as well as sanitizing wipes – perfect for those beach trips! They all smell so nice!   https://www.cleanwelltoday.com
