Baby Blanket Suncare Sunscreen Review and Giveaway - CLOSED

First Impression: When I first opened the package from Baby Blanket Suncare I was delighted to see a great collection of baby sunscreen!  I was very excited to see so many things to try out!  Especially the SunBlankie  Towelette  that I have always been curious about while waiting in the check out line at Toys R Us.

We received 6 Products:
*Titanium Dioxide Sunscreen Lotion, 6 oz. Tube, SPF 50+
*Sunscreen Stick with Zinc Oxide SPF 45+
*Convenience Sunscreen Spray Lotion SPF 45+, 2 oz 
*(2)SunBlankie™ Towelette SPF 45+ 
*Titanium Dioxide Sunscreen  Continuous Spray Lotion, 5 oz. Bottle, SPF 70+ 

Style/Choices:  Baby Blanket Suncare has a great line of products! They have baby sunscreen lotions, sprays, towelettes, sticks, and even a line for kids and faces too!  They also have cute little packages that come with a pair of sunglasses which I think would make a perfect add on to a gift for a summer birthday baby!  I am seriously in love with these products!

Functionality: My neighbor and I decided to put Baby Blanket Suncare's products to the test! We took our kids to the neighborhood water park and tried them all out!

Ellianna (6 months old) tried out the (2)SunBlankie™ Towelette SPF 45+ , I used it all over her; arms, legs, and face.  It was great seeing how the sprays and things scare her.

Owen (1.5 yrs old) tried out the Sunscreen Stick with Zinc Oxide SPF 45+ on his face and the Titanium Dioxide Sunscreen  Continuous Spray Lotion, 5 oz. Bottle, SPF 70+ on his body.

Connor (3 yrs old) and Gavin (3.5years old) put the water resistance of the lotions/sprays to the test!

Connor used the Sunscreen Stick with Zinc Oxide SPF 45+ on his face and the Titanium Dioxide Sunscreen Lotion, 6 oz. Tube, SPF 50+ on his body.  Gavin used the  Sunscreen Stick with Zinc Oxide SPF 45+ on his face and the Convenience Sunscreen Spray Lotion SPF 45+, 2 oz on his body.

It was a very hot and sunny day in Southern California and Ellianna, Owen, Connor, and Gavin were safely protected from the harmful UVA and UVB rays.  Not one of them left the park with a burn.  Of course silly Mommy (me) put some sunscreen on her face but forgot to put some on the rest of her, so I left with a pretty bad burn on my shoulders.

My children have very sensitive skin, they have actually been diagnosed with contact dermatitis by an allergist.  So the day before we used the sunscreen, we did a little patch test on their arms.  Baby Blanket Suncare passed with flying colors!  So it is definitely hypoallergenic!

How it Promotes a Healthy Lifestyle:  Playing outside is wonderful for obtaining a healthy lifestyle, I try to get my kids outside everyday for at least an hour.  To be able to do this safely they need to be wearing some protection from the sun.  Wearing the right kind of clothing and sunscreen like Baby Blanket Suncare's products is a definite must.

Pros: 

• Doesn't sting their eyes
• Hypoallergenic

Cons:

• I really can't come up with one, except for maybe that the lotions and sprays are opaque so you have to do some rubbing in once it is applied.
