ultrasun SPF 50 Baby Mineral Sun Cream, 100 ml

Product Information

UVA rays are what contribute to tanning and will contribute to premature skin ageing. UVB rays are what burn the skin and turn it red. Both types of UV rays are associated with skin cancer. Yes! Ultrasun is Eco Pass Approved, and they’re the only suncare brand in the world to be accredited with this award. This means that their sunscreens are biodegradable and don’t cause harm to the environment, coral reef or aquatic life.

Ultrasun comes doctor recommended, so you can keep everyone smiling in the sun! The Ultrasun sunscreen range is free from animal testing and vegan friendly* * excluding the Ultrasun Lip Balm (contains beeswax) It’s important to remember that if your child goes red and burns in the sun while wearing a high SPF sun cream, it's not necessarily because the UVA star rating is too low. However, it's worth remembering that the star rating is a system developed (and owned) by Boots and so not all sun creams will display it. Some sun creams use the PA system (PA+, PA++ and PA+++) while others use the general EU UVA logo (the acronym UVA displayed in a circle). The latter indicates that the product's UVA protection factor is greater than or equal to a third of its SPF level.

What makes Ultrasun special?

There are various factors at play including whether enough sunscreen was applied, whether it was water resistant and your child was getting wet or sweating, and whether there was any transfer onto towels or clothing,’ says Pyle. Myth Debunked: Yes, you can still get a tan while wearing Ultrasun sunscreen! Not only can you achieve a tan, but the Tan Activator Body will actually improve, prolong and intensify your natural tan.

More than you realise. Experts agree that most people don’t apply enough sun cream to themselves or their family. Its formula is also hydrating, so you might not need an additional moistruizer during the day. This product prevents early signs of aging by protecting against sun damage (all broad spectrum sunscreens do that). Sunscreen filters mostly alcohol-free (alcohol is either at the bottom of the list, but the sports options do have alcohol) Ideally, babies shouldn’t need to wear sun creams as they ought to be kept in the shade and dressed in light, loose clothing that covers them up. It’s water-resistant as well, making it perfect for those who enjoy extreme water sports or surfing. Whatever outdoor activity you enjoy – from gardening to triathlons – the Ultrasun Sports Gel will keep you comfortably protected and will keep up with you and your active lifestyle.Lots of child sun creams come as a spray (either aerosol or pump action), as it makes them easier to apply to a fidgety child. Why I love it: This sunscreen is the go-to for anyone who struggles with sun sensitivities. The SPF50+ formula is suitable for the whole family and will ensure even the most sensitive and reactive skin is protected. If you’re in your twenties like me, ageing might not be your biggest concern right now. However, I know that my future self will thank me if I start thinking about skin-ageing now and doing what I can to protect against wrinkles and fine lines from appearing. The skin of babies and children is considered to be more sensitive than adults, so using a kids sun cream should mean less chance of causing irritation, and the higher SPF is a safer bet for their more delicate skin. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{

Who this would be perfect for: Anyone looking for a daily SPF and is concerned about the signs of ageing.

I don’t have children myself, so it’s difficult for me to comment on how suitable this is for the whole family. However, who better to turn to for advice and a recommendation than our lovely customers! Here’s what a parent had to say about the Ultrasun family sunscreen to give you further peace of mind:

Perhaps one of the main things that make them stand out is the use of lamellar technology – they’re the only brand worldwide to use this technology in sun protection. This binds the formula to the upper layer of skin – without being absorbed in – which makes it disappear instantly but also makes it last all day which means that you don’t need to reapply every two hours. Why I love it: This vegan aftersun is a cooling antidote to sun-drenched skin in need of a bit of nourishment. After a day in the sun, skin can feel hot, tight and uncomfortable (especially if you haven’t been wearing sunscreen!)This is obviously a difficult figure to convert into layman’s measures, but with adults being recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO) to apply 35ml of sun cream (seven teaspoons), it will be between a quarter and half of this amount depending on the age and size of your child. What is the difference between adults and kids sun creams? The suntan lotions are vegan and cruelty-free, too. So you can feel confident knowing you are optimally protected without damaging the planet. In fact, labelling on sun creams should state that babies and children be kept out of direct sunlight.
