9 Best Sunscreens for Kids: Safe Non Toxic Sunscreen

I have tested and found the best sunscreens for kids. They are safe, non-toxic sunscreens tested on a trip to Disney World, Florida. I judged the Clean Beauty Awards and was given categories of non-toxic sunscreen, clean toners, and mists. This is not my first trip to Disney World! I’ve had many adventures….and migraine attacks there. I love to see the changes and improvements in the quality of the products they use.
What better place to test non-toxic sunscreens for kids than Disney World? Florida is a sunny hot place. Using clean sunscreen is essential, while ease of use on 2 children is crucial. So, we tried each product for an entire day. Reapplication with sweaty, tired bodies was an actual test of if we’d recommend it. I love testing safe, non-toxic brands that help our bodies while not hurting others. Disney is the happiest place on earth, and I don’t want our sunscreen to ruin the fun.

Best Sunscreens for Kids
Eleve Cosmetics

Eleve is one of my favorite organic cosmetics, and I wasn’t surprised that the vitamin sea sunscreen was on my list of the best sunscreens for toddlers and babies. Its application is super unique, and the bottle is eye-catching and different. This was the best natural sunscreen for the face. I also wear their non-tox makeup.
Mineral Sunscreen- Aromatica
My favorite part about Aromatica’s aloe mineral sunscreen is that it is SPF 50+ I find that most organic sunscreen is lower in SPF and with small children, I want a lot of protection. It came out smooth and went on silky. We also used the after-sun aloe which kept our sensitive skin cool and refreshed. This was also the best size and shape to throw in my bookbag and go.
I also love their rose-first serum, jojoba oil, and shampoo. All their Products aim to save the soul, save the planet.
Chemical-Free Sunscreen- 3rd Rock Sunblock
This is an all-natural unscented zinc oxide sunscreen that does not contain any endocrine disrupters, parabens, or toxins. The smell was of ginger and strange color. We ended up liking the color and absorption more than the typical white chalky texture.
