Non-greasy Sunblock for Kiddos

Our family is headed to California in a couple of months and I need to find sunblock for kiddos that is non-greasy,great for sensitive skin,and sand won't stick to it. I've used Bananna Boat for Babies spf50-my lil one's soft skin is to sensitive to it(left red blotchy spot on face.) I like the Avon Skin So Soft sunblock and bug off(the blueberry scented one) but it is very greasy. Any ideas please...Thanks in advance!!

I see you have a lot of suggestions. Mary Kay also has a great sunblock spf30. My pediatrician in Knoxville, TN where I moved from, Dr. Greg Blackmon will only use MK sunblock on his kids. I am a consultant if you would like it or you may already have a consultant. Just wanted to throw that out there.

Have you ever tried the Arbonne Baby care line? It's great for sensitive skin. Plus it's made with essential oils, so that they soak into our skin, rather than just sitting on the top (which leaves the greasy feeling). Let me know if you're interested in a sample!

Have a great time on your trip!

This line, Peter Island, of sun care products is great. They have both a spray on and regular lotion types. I use the spray on my little boy. He doesn't stand still long enough to get anything rubbed in on him. I am allergic to most sunscreens (I get the red blotches and severe burning with most) and I have had no problem with using the lotions or the spray with this brand.
Good luck and have fun.

We've used the Lubriderm lotion with sunscreen in it for years. It soaks in well, leaving you soft, not greasy. However, I think it's only SPF15. But it is nice if you're not going to be out all day.
I've also used the Arbonne and like it, but I feel it goes on kind of thick.

We love the Coppertone Kids continuous spray sunscreen. It is clear and the kids is SPF 50. All you do is spray it on and let them go. No rubbing and for me it is much easier to get quick and even coverage.

The New Mary Kay Sun Screen is awesome. It just came out March 15th!! It does not smell and leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth. It is safe for sensitive skin and has an SPF 30.

If you don't have a consultant, you can go to my website at www.marykay.com/S. to order it. Everything is 100% guarunteed so if it doesn't work for your family you can get a full refund.

I don't know about for babies, but my girls use the "Goes on Clear Zinc Oxide" for their faces and necks. It has great spf and stays on without feeling greasy and it doesn't smell. It's in tubs with the other sunscreen products and I know they sell it at Walgreens.

Arbonne Baby Care Sunscreen, it's great!
