Neutrogena Sheer Zinc Kids Mineral Sunscreen Stick, SPF 50+, 1.5 oz

Kids are loving it. Easy to apply non sticky application in second.

My son is allergic to regular sunblock. It took me a long time to figure out the cause because even so-called "sensitive skin" unblocks caused him to break out in hives. One day, my son had to take some Pepto Bismal as directed by his doctor. He then started to break out in hives. When comparing the ingredients, I quickly realized that both Pepto and traditional sunblock have a common ingredient. Salicylate! Salicylates can also be found in many fruits and veggies as well which explained his occasional sensitive stomach. Now, back to this product. It uses zinc to protect from the sun with much less "other" or "inactive" ingredients than other sunblocks. We have used it successfully for a couple of years now with no swollen or itchy hives! It does go on white, and the bar is dense and thick. However, you only need to gently glide it across the skin to provide ample coverage. Since the zinc bar is dense, it lasts us a long time. I still have some from last summer to use at the start of this summer.
