1.0 out of 5 stars Harmful active ingredient despite the "all organic" claim, July 14, 2012

I bought this sunscreen for my two toddlers and I liked it.... until I read a report written by the EWG.

This sunscreen's main active ingredient is actually Octinoxate, which is harmful (see below the list of its effects on health (as described by EWG). There is NO way I am going to continue using this product on my children. After hours of research I am going to switch to Burnout, which main active ingredient is zinc oxide, a far safer substance (most of the baby sunscreens actually seem to be using that ingredient and not Octinoxate.)

I am really disappointed because I bought this product thinking that it was safe because it was organic, and I was misled. I am happy I did my homework and I thought other parents may find it useful.

Possible side effects of Octinoxate:
Developmental/reproductive toxicity, Endocrine disruption, Allergies/immunotoxicity, Persistence and bioaccumulation, Organ system toxicity (non-reproductive), Enhanced skin... Read more

I have been searching for a paraben-free sunscreen for my daughter since last summer. The one I had been using (CVS brand, same ingrediants as Neutregena all-natural mineral) was so difficult to apply. It would never rub in properly. The babyganics one is amazing, spreads easily, and provides excellent protection. It also gets very high ratings from the cosmetic database, which rates based on the safety of various products. I highly recommend this sunscreen.

I used this sunscreen on my baby and on myself all last summer, and I will say that we never got a sunburn. We were out in the sun about 5 days out of the week (we live in San Diego), and many of those days we were playing in water as well. I like that it got the safest rating from the Environmental Working Group (a 1 out of 10, the lower the number being better). However, when it came time to buy sunscreen for this summer, I went with a different brand because I was overall unhappy with how this sunscreen goes on. It is very thick, almost like a diaper rash cream, and because it is a mineral based formula, it is very difficult to fully rub into the skin, and turns the skin white and pasty in the process. I always felt like I was pulling at my baby's skin trying to rub it in properly, and she would get upset. And on a side note, I have a full sleeve of tattoos on one arm, and when I used this sunscreen over my tattoos, they basically disappeared or looked terrible because of the white... Read more
