I cared for my skin from the inside out with Aveeno® Active Naturals as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars. As always, these are my honest opinions and products we REALLY use. #Aveeno
Finding the best sunscreen for babies and kids is not a simple task. The reality is that there are so many different skin types and needs out there. What I can say is that we have been through a plethora of sunscreens for our boys and I have only found a handful that do not break their skin out.
I discovered Aveeno® Baby Continuous Protection® Lotion Sunscreen with Broad Spectrum 55 after Graham had a severe reaction to another brand when he was little. I decided to spend the little bit of extra money on a brand I trusted and that had proven itself to be gentle over the years. Afterall, I was using the Aveeno® baby products for bath time, why not for sun protection?
After the very first use this was the only sunscreen I purchased for the boys when they were very small. I am pretty diligent about re-applying sunscreen and do so about every hour. The bottle says it is water resistant up to 80 minutes (I still reapply after an hour). Of course, this product includes the Active Naturals® which helps to keep baby’s skin calm.
If you are looking for another Aveeno® sheer body lotion option to keep your skin looking great during the spring and summer, then check out my current favorite, Aveeno® Sheer Hydration Daily Moisturizing Lotion. I do not like icky residue from lotions. I can’t stand it when you have to rub the lotion in for what feels like an eternity until you are no longer slick. This stuff is the bomb! It is a no residue lotion. I rub in this quick absorbing lotion for 15 seconds and I’m good to go for the rest of the day. I can’t feel the lotion, but I can feel my skin being amazing. Look, I even made a little Instagram video for you to prove it using a tissue.
I love that they make sunscreen for babies and kids. Aveeno is a great product.
I use Aveeno lotion, but I had no idea they made sunblock, too. I will have to try that!
We have used that Aveeno lotion for years for our dry skin, and we use their baby line for bath time. I didn’t realize they did sunscreen for babies and kids too. I will have to look for that, especially now that summer is close!
I love aveeno! I use the lotions and stuff often especially for my babies. I didn’t know about sunblock though!
I love Aveeno products! These sounds like great sunscreens! I burn so I always look for a sunblock that’s going to protect me from those harmful UV rays. Living in SoCal it’s a must have!
I tend to like Aveeno products. I buy their mosquito bite itch cream and their lotion.
I love Aveeno products. I use their lotion all the time.
I love Aveeno moisturizing products. I haven’t tried the sunscreens yet, but with warmer months ahead I’m sure it’ll be in my cart soon.
I hate the sticky greasy sunscreen residue too! This looks like a great sheer lotion!
Sticky and greasy sunscreen is the worst! Aveeno is a fantastic brand for sunscreen and body care products.
Aveeno is one of very few store bought lotions that I will put on my boys sensitive skin. I really need to try the sunscreen to prevent the inevitable summer burn.
Aveeno is the best. Love all their products and use them a lot.
I have never used Aveeno sunscreen. I will have to try it. I do use their lotion. I grab it when its one sale because it is one of few that don’t break out my skin.
I’ve heard of Aveeno lotion, but not the sunscreen! Sounds like a great product!
I love the Aveeno products. I have a couple products that I use when my skin gets dry.
Aveeno products rock – we already use their lotion on our son’s chapped cheeks. It is the best stuff ever!
I may have to try some of this this year. I have been using a couple of different brands with my girls. I keep them covered.
