**What is it?** Most people have heard of baby lotion as a very gentle, mild moisturiser used on children (though many grown ups use it too!) and this Simple Baby Lotion SPF50 has, as the name suggests, the added advantage of an SPF50 which is a pretty high factor sun protection suited for children. **The Simple Brand** Simple is a great brand if you have sensitive skin, and for children, as their products are hypoallergenic, and fragrance free (though they still all smell very nice and fresh and light). I use it often as does my mum. **The Baby Lotion** Simple Baby Lotion SPF50 comes in a white bottle with a yellow ...  Read the complete review

We've had such lovely sunny weather so far this summer, that I recently had to buy another tube of sun cream for my little boy. I recently wrote a review about Soltan Baby sun cream. This is a good product, but I found it very hard to rub into a wriggly toddler. As a result, I decided to try something different this time.

Having searched the shelvs looking for a sun lotion suitable for babies under 6 months I found this. I must stress that it is not recoommended babies under 6 months be exposed to the sun for any length of time at all. However, I use this as a 'safety net', I keep muy daughter in the shade as much as possible but slather this on incase she kicks off her sheet when out in the pram or squirms an arm out of her sling when I am not looking. It goes on easily, but does take a bit of rubbing in. I have noticed that it has marked some of her vests a bit, but no more than normal adult suncream does on white t-shirts. The factor 50 means ...  Read the complete review
