We love spray-on sunscreen as much as the next parent (it is seriously hard to get a baby to stay still long enough to get a proper rubdown of SPF lotion). But we've stopped using it on our own little ones, since the FDA launched an investigation into the risks of spray sunscreen (the big concern is that those tiny particles can be inhaled). If you're looking for an alternative, check out this list of weeSpring parents' faves.

Essential for squirming kids! And nice for the beach - not rubbing in lotion and sand mixture Apr 26, 2023

Love this! Just spray and go. Run in sunblock always ends up looking like glue on the skin. Apr 09, 2021

I like the quality of this spray and it seems to last longer than other sport sprays. I prefer the high spf as we are always outside i use this on all my nieces and nephews Aug 06, 2019

I got this for my sons head since he is very blonde. It goes into his hair nicely and protects his head. I use think baby for the rest of his though Aug 05, 2019

Favorite kids spray sunscreen. Provides full coverage and lasts. Not oily and good for sensitive skin. We use this as the reapplication over lotion after a few hours. Jul 29, 2019

Did not like spray. Hard to evenly apply. Would not buy again. Smell is ok but there are better. Feb 07, 2017

Been using this for years on my son as well as myself. I am very pale and have sensitive skin and I never burn when I use it at the beach. Jan 02, 2017

Easy to apply & my kids don't burn when it is applied. Sep 17, 2016

bought this and then read that it was on the list of sunscreens not to put on children due to the chemical content. May 31, 2016

It's convient, but you can only use it outside. Oct 24, 2014
Nice for the toddlers who want to hurry and jump in the pool or ocean Jul 28, 2014
I love the high SPF. It's easy to apply. Wish it was less chemically-based but I'll trade that this once for the SPF. Oct 09, 2013

This stuff works great, but I prefer the lotion form as the aerosol isn't great for children. Jun 10, 2013
This is good for touch up later, but i always start with lotion to be safe Jun 09, 2013
Really easy to apply as they are running away! Jun 09, 2013
I've said this before I'm a huge Neutrogena fan and use this spray on my 5 year old all summer long - it's covers well and is designed for little ones on the move wet and dry! That's my little one to a T! Jun 09, 2013

Our sunscreen we used all summer! Fast to apply & easy to rub into skin. Also didn't irritate my daughter highly sensitive skin! We also use the face stick! Highly recommended Nov 16, 2017

By far one of the better spray sunscreens I tried. I know we aren't supposed to use them, but for a sunny vacation, it's a must! Aug 27, 2016

Awesome sunscreen! Protects my kids skin and can be applied when her skin is wet and fresh out of the pool!! Jan 06, 2016

This isn't mineral based - meaning it's chemical based sunscreen so absorbs into the skin/blood so we didn't end up using it. Jul 19, 2015

Diaper bag staple for the summer months. I keep this in the stroller, in the diaper bag and at my back door. Easy to use and smells yummy! Nov 26, 2014
