This time of year, when weather seems more fall than summer, we tend to forget our sunscreen.\u00a0 Bright red noses from a weekend spent outside is our family\u2019s proof.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget to protect the kids (and yourselves) from late summer sunburn.\u00a0 Check out this reader q & a from Organic Beauty Source <\/a>for the best on mineral sunscreen for kids:<\/p>\n

I would love to hear more about a great daily sunscreen for little ones that isn’t so thick or white from the zinc!<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0Let me tell you straight up, mineral sunscreens are all going to be a bit different feel than the chemical variety.\u00a0 Zinc naturally leaves behind a white coating.\u00a0 But natural sunscreen manufacturers have come a long way in making their products lighter, less greasy, and even transparent.<\/p>\n

When we first went mineral my kids really disliked the sunscreens.\u00a0 REALLY DISLIKED!\u00a0 Like, I had to talk them into getting the sunscreen applied.\u00a0 And I wasn\u2019t a huge fan either.\u00a0 Not only was it greasy and white, but so were our bathing suits, clothes, car seats, doors, kitchen cabinets\u2026anything that came into contact with their slathered little bods.<\/p>\n

After several years of experimenting with lots and lots of mineral sunscreens, there is one that stands out as the favorite in our house.\u00a0 And that one is Erbaviva SPF 15 Sunscreen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This one goes on smooth, clear and non-greasy. The Trifecta!\u00a0 It does feel slightly tacky (just slightly, though) on the skin.\u00a0 We have become accustomed to the body lotion feel of sunscreen from our youthful days spent with Coppertone, so the feel may take a little getting used to.\u00a0 But really, this one is by far the favorite.<\/p>\n

The only problem?\u00a0 It comes in such a small tube.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
