Are stick types the way to go for applying on squirmy kid's faces? Yes. We like the Baby Bum from Target. It's a mineral sunscreen and meets DS's derm's criteria (zinc oxide and SPF 30+). I've been looking at those! Do you use the stick everywhere? Or just on the face and regular cream everywhere else? I saw that they also have a face stick - Sun Bum, not Baby Bum, but I read that you don't really need to use kid/baby-specific sunscreen - and wondered what the difference was. |

We use the stick on his face and lotion on everything else. There was a Baby Bum stick in the baby aisle at our store. Not sure if there's a big difference in that and the regular. Aveeno Baby lotion and stick also have a similar ingredient list, and it's the sunscreen we sent to daycare and grandmas' houses. |

Another vote for thinksport and thinkbaby. But depending on your natural coloring, any sunscreen is safer than no sunscreen (unless you are a coral reef - that's a different issue)
