> 24 hourThis is my favorite natural baby sunscreen! It goes on much easier than other natural sunscreens and works great as far as UV protection. Doesn’t sting or cause any skin irritations on any of my three little kids or myself and my husband. I always recommend it to new mothers and when other moms use mine they always go out and buy it right after because they fall in love with it too.

> 24 hourIts a little thick but its easy enough to apply on a squirmy baby, my only issue is it dries out my daughters skin a lot so make sure you have a good lotion and bath after each use

> 24 hourI really like the Babyganics brand. We love their soaps, bug sprays, and sunscreens. Im not totally sold on the whole baby organic movement, but I like to try and keep as many chemicals off the kids as possible just to avoid sensitive skin issues really. I have no problems overall with this sunscreen, but I will say that I like the spray-bottle version better. Its a little thinner and remarkably less sticky. It also applies cleaner and more efficiently. Love the brand, but prefer the spray, which, incidentally, is not a mist spray (I have very little success with the mists), but a spray-on full sunscreen that you still have to rub in to ensure it works.

> 24 hourThis sunscreen has been working wonders for my 6 month old. It goes on very easily and doesn’t have a strong smell at all. Love it!

> 24 hourThe sun protection is excellent - if you use enough and apply it fifteen minutes before you head outdoors. I had high hopes for this sunscreen based on the non-fragrant ingredient list. But what a bust! You will be pasty, chalky (me), or ashy. It will not blend into your skin, and its difficult to spread. This actually is not a deal breaker for me. Im OK with chalky if I get the SPF, and I do. But this double-edged sword transfers. It transfers to laminate floors, yoga mats, and beach toys. But just try to wash it off. You need sandpaper to remove the product, long after its effectiveness wanes. I simply cannot imagine anyone using this on an infant or child. Night after night, I showered and scrubbed frenetically and still had product on my face, neck, arms, and legs. Dont do this to your kid. There are way too many great sunscreens these days. It makes no sense to protect your childs skin from the sun if youre going to have to remove the product with an emery file. File this under dud!

> 24 hourI have 2 tubes of this sunscreen. One is left at daycare and used daily when they take my 11 month old daughter outside on the playground and the second is at home and we have used it for outdoor play including at the beach. Even at the beach with full sun (she did wear a floppy hat for the majority of the day, however), my daughter has yet to experience a burn. She has very fair skin and since we live in WA state we dont get a lot of sun to begin with its even more essential that us pale Pacific North-Westerners use coverage. So far Im happy with the product. My ONLY complaints are superficial. The cream is INCREDIBLY thick. It makes it hard to apply and often leaves behind a white layer (I expected this from other reviews). A little goes a long way, as my husband forgot when he went to apply it to the top of my daughters head while at the beach (thin hair=possibility for scalp sun burns)... Made her hair stick straight up and left her looking ghostly and white for the rest of the day.

> 24 hourThis is our go to sunscreen. Rated well by the EWG (environmental working group) as less toxic for your kiddos than many other brands. We arent a fan of the ones that leave a greasy film (like badger and all terrain did). This one rubs in and protects my blue eyed, fair skinned, freckled kiddos. It even held up to the tough florida sun on many a disney trip. I also like that it is more budget friendly than other green options.

> 24 hourThis gives good protection from the sun. It goes on thick and can be hard to rub in but its the only sunscreen that I have used that does not burn our eyes. Me and the kids use it on our faces.

> 24 hourI dont get sunburned too easily, but there is always that first sunburn of the year while on vacation. This year, I was introduced to Babyganics sunscreen lotion. What sold me on the product is that it is on the top 10 safest sunscreens to put on your baby (we all want that, right?). I bought it, hopeful that the safe ingredients would also be effective. I was at the beach for a week with my 60 year old mother, my 5 year old son, and my 14 month old son (and Im 30, for what its worth). NONE OF US GOT BURNED! First time in my life that I went to the beach without getting burned on that first day. So, not only is it SAFE, it is EFFECTIVE! Win for all!

> 24 hourWhen I received this during our hot weather, the product seemed to have separated and seemed watery. I was hesitant to try it on my baby so I shook the bottle and used it on myself a little until I felt confident enough to try it on my daughter. Im happy to say, Im very pleased with our purchase and that well be getting more. I liked it that it is the most scent free sunscreen Ive used and it is much easier to apply than the more expensive 20% zinc sunscreen that we used before. We went on a camping trip (with a daily hike), and went to a water park resort and then have been going to the pool every weekend under the hot AZ sun. Neither my daughter nor I have gotten a sunburn and Im pleased that it works so well. Admittedly, we do look like pasty ghosts because I slather it on. But I am absolutely paranoid about sunburn/radiation damage and I like it that it protects against UVA and UVB as well and has EWG rating of 2. EDIT: Initially I had given this product 5 stars because it really does work and it is one of the few that actually has very little scent out there. I also am not queasy about using chemical based sunscreen and feel it is safe. HOWEVER, I do agree that to market this as mineral based is really disingenuous since it and the description gives the impression that it is wholly physical/natural which it is not. With the critical level of coral bleaching of the ocean and people wanting to be more aware of the ingredients especially since the scandal with another famous baby-centric brand recently, this is tricky advertising and makes me think much less of Babyganics.
