Children's Lavender Sun Lotion SPF25

I have been using Green People’s Organic Children Sun Lotion on my daughter Kyra and cannot recommend it highly enough. At factor 25, it provides sufficient cover that she has not once burnt, while still allowing the beneficial vitamin D from the sun’s rays to permeate her skin. It offers 96% UVB protection and is available in lavender and unscented forms, making it ideal for sensitive skins, and is suitable for use from birth

Organic Children Sun Lotion is made from 81% organic ingredients, including spring water, olive oil, sunflower oil, palm oil, plant wax, aloe vera powder, chamomile, edelweiss, myrrh oil, rosemary and vitamin C. It also contains beeswax, making it suitable for vegetarians, though not vegans. It does not contain any parabens, lanolin, phthalates, artificial perfumes, petrochemicals or colourants. There are also no eggs, nuts, dairy or wheat products, making it the perfect solution for children with allergies.

Even with a skin that often flares up with most typical ‘baby’ creams and moisturisers, Kyra has had no reaction at all to the Green People cream. Unlike some other similar products, it is not overly thick – in fact, it is more like an aqueous cream in texture, making application much easier. Indeed, the hardest part of covering Kyra in it is trying to prevent her eating it out of my hand due to its lovely smell (the lavender, that is).

Review from www.diaryofafirstchild.com

Organic Children Sun Lotion spf25 Lavender - this water-resistant factor 25 organic sun lotion passes the "white streak" test with flying colours. It is easy to apply, has a lovely smell of lavender and is completely free of colourants, artificial fragrances, lanolin, petrochemicals, propylene glycol, parabens and hormone- mimicking ingredients. Natural bees wax and olive oil provide the water-resistant base, and it is suitable to use on babies from six months old. I look forward to continuing to use this sun lotion.

"My 3 year old is very sensitive to shampoo, soaps, creams - in fact most of the time from birth we have simply used water with no products at all if we could help it! I found your website after much research into sun creams, involving borrowing samples from playgroup friends and noting down anyone who had had any success with sun cream on sensitive skin!

Finally on a site dealing with this issue I noticed your products came up again and again with obviously positive results. I tried it on my daughter hardly daring to believe it might work and - it did!
Thank you!! It is a great relief to be able to let her play in the sun without worrying!"

"Hello, We have been using your Organic Suncreams for our family for a few years now. They are more expensive than the non-organic suncreams, but well worth it not having to worry about what's in the suncream. We went on holiday with family and friends in May (2006).

One family there had a Special Needs (Red head) toddler, who had very sensitive skin. They had tried many various suncreams but they all made his skin suffer terribly. However, despite our Organic Suncream being ridiculed (very prejudicially) by another adult of the group, they thought they'd try the Organic one.

We posted them some of our (your) Organic Children's Suncream straight after the holiday and - they said it had worked wonderfully, and that it had stopped the sunburn and the skin was fine. They were very pleased to have found a Children's Suncream that, at long last, had worked for their child who had such sensitive skin."

"I felt the need to write and give you our positive feedback which I must say I have never done, normally when you contact a company it's negative. However, I have been using Green People products for years but this is the first time I really put them to the test. We have just been on a 6 week trip around Italy where the temperatures averaged 38degrees in the shade and some days touched 50, it was a heatwave which would not cool down.

My husband and I are both red heads so have very pale skin and we took with us bag fulls of the childrens lavender 25, it was amazing!!!

We didn't burn once, despite being in a soft top car with the roof down and being in direct sunlight for the whole day. For us we normally expect to burn at least once on holiday when it gets that hot but your cream was incredible, thank you. Not only that but we actually caught a bit of colour and people have since commented that it's the first time ever they have seen us go brown!!!!"

"I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with your products. I am a new customer and have only just started using your products. My youngest boy was recently stung quite badly by nettles whilst playing in the garden at my mum’s house and the only thing I had to hand was the Children’s Lavender Sun Lotion.

I know it's not what it's usually for but I thought the lavender may help and so applied the cream and he was instantly soothed. I will definitely be ordering more products in the very near future.  Thanks again."
