Best Organic Sunscreens for Babies and Sensitive Skin Types

Sunscreen – not only does it protect you from skin damage and sunburn, but it’s also a valuable weapon in the fight against skin cancer.
Unfortunately, too often, people use too little, or the wrong kind, and end up doing more damage. And while the FDA is finally putting into place federal sunscreen regulations, you won't be seeing products approved to more-strict FDA standards until 2012. That’s why it’s critical that you think about and research the creams you put on your skin, just as you would the food you put in your body.
Eco-friendly and water resistant, this effective all natural sun block works instantly to protect against harmful UVB and UVB rays. Organic oils and beeswax provide a super nourishing base for the most delicate of skin
Badger Organics Sunscreen Spf 30 2.9 Oz (Pack of 4)
SPF 30 natural sunscreen is formulated to protect and moisturize with FDA-certified organic ingredients.
As you'll find in the ingredients list of Badger and in all of the EWG's top 10 sunscreens, for truly effective sun and health protection, zinc oxide (along with titanium oxide) is used to deflect the sun's rays, rather than synthetic chemicals which absorb rays, raising health concerns because they penetrate the skin and enter your bloodstream.
