OUR FAVORITE NATURAL & ORGANIC SUNSCREENS

Summer is in full swing. And while we all love some fun in the sun (the park! the ocean! the pool!), sunburn for our little ones and sun spots for us mamas is no fun. Unfortunately, many drugstore sunscreens have harsh chemicals that can affect our children’s’ sensitive skin, but luckily there are several newer natural brands on the market that are just as effective but not as harsh. Keeping skin safe from the sun no longer has to involve smelly and unnatural lotions with the use of our top picks!

Supergoop! is a brand completely dedicated to suncare, and it is leading the way in terms of technology. Their products are cruelty and gluten free and do not include parabens, oxybenzone or synthetic fragrances which can be harmful to skin. The company seeks to find easy ways to incorporate sun protection into everyday life, creating easy products such as their new ‘Sunscreen Mousse” and “Sunscreen Oil.”
