A light, non-sticky sunscreen for children with sensitive skin
Eucerin Sun Sensitive Protect Kids Dry Touch Sun Gel-Cream SPF50+ is a very high protection sunscreen made for the sensitive skin of children, suitable from 3 months old. Its filter system protects against UVB and UVA, and Licochalcone A, an antioxidant from licorice root, helps defend the skin against free radicals caused by UV and visible light. Glycyrrhetinic acid helps soothe sensitive skin. The gel-cream is fragrance-free, very water resistant and sand resistant, and its anti-stain technology helps prevent marks on clothes and makes them easier to wash out.
The texture
An ultra-light gel-cream that absorbs quickly and dries to a non-sticky, non-greasy finish, so sand does not cling to the skin. It spreads easily over large areas, which helps with wriggly children. The fragrance-free formula also makes it a good fit for kids whose skin reacts easily to perfumed products.
Who it suits
- Children from 3 months with sensitive skin
- Beach days, pools and outdoor sports
- Kids who hate the feel of greasy sunscreen
- Parents who want fewer stains on swimwear and clothes
Worth knowing before you buy: the formula contains denatured alcohol, which gives the dry-touch finish but can sting on broken or very dry skin. Babies under 6 months should be kept out of direct sun whenever possible, even with sunscreen.
How long one tube lasts
A child needs about 15 to 20ml per full-body application, so a 200ml tube covers around ten applications, a week or so of beach holiday with regular reapplication.
