SPF 50 Mineral Protection for Active Kids
Non-nano zinc oxide is the sole active sunscreen ingredient in Little Urchin KIDS Sunscreen, providing broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB radiation. The clear zinc formula is designed to spread smoothly and rub in with minimal visible white residue, making sunscreen application easier when little ones are eager to get outside and play.
With up to 4 hours of water resistance, this sunscreen is well suited to active days involving swimming, water play and outdoor activities. Regular reapplication is still essential, particularly after swimming, sweating or towel drying.
