The Spring Sun really packs
a punch so I have noticed the last few days. I didn’t think much of it until we
came home from the park one day and realised Madison and myself had become
sunburnt even though it was overcast (Naughty naughty)! So this made me realise
it was time to get the sunscreen out again this year and start using it every
single day no matter sun or not.
I make applying sunscreen a
daily routine for my girls, they apply it right after they brush their teeth in
the morning. This year were trying out a sunscreen brand that we haven’t really
used much and giving it a run for its money.
The product that the girls
have been using is the
Toddler and Childrens SunSense - Junior SPF 50+ 50ml
Roll-On $8.95
MADE AND TESTED IN AUSSIE LAND!
The first thing I noticed
this formula is a lot less oilier then their previous sunscreen, which is a
huge plus. The other thing I noticed is that it is SPF 50+- now this is
available in Australia I wont use any less of an SPF on the girls.
The smell is just like any
other sunscreen- maybe a touch milder, which is that iconic scent of the beach
in my opinion.
The SunSunse Junior
Sunscreen is also:
·
Paediatrician and dermatologically tested
·
Fragrance, PABA and colour free
·
Contains Nicotinamide (Vit B)
·
Two hours water resistance
·
Gentle Formula
The roll on bottle makes it
so much easier to apply, and the kids love rolly polly on their bodies while
singing their song. It is also nice and compact so it fits nicely in my
handbag.
Then the product I will be
using on myself is the:
SunSense Ultra SPF 50+ Spray Trigger $17.99
Before I get on with my
review and thoughts on this product I would like to point out the Ultra is also
available in:
·
50mL Roll-On: $8.95
·
125mL Bottle: $10.95
·
200g Tube: $16.95
·
200mL Spray Trigger: $17.99
·
500mL Pump pack: $23.95
I think it is great that
SunSense has given the consumer many different options with the size of the
product. I personally like different sizes for different things like the car,
my bag, beach and in the house.
The SunSense Ultra is
developed with dual UVA/UVB absorbers. I like how easily both the junior and
the Ultra absorbs into your skin, hello sand! You don’t feel like you have
taken a dip in the fish and chip shop oil, although you will need a shower like
with any sunscreen to remove the sticky, oil left overs. No matter what I think
I would prefer to feel a tad oily and greasy then burn my skin and really do
some damage.
So please, please, please
this Spring/Summer I urge you to slip, slop and slap- if not you then your
children need protection.
These products are
available in pharmacies and Priceline Stores nationally.
