Ecomom Review and Giveaway

If you’ve seen pictures of my kids, you know that it is an absolute must for them to have sunscreen on when they are outside.  They are extremely pale and would sunburn almost immediately. 

We’ve never met a sunscreen we didn’t like.  I’m always careful to get the kinds that are for sensitive skin and won’t burn their eyes.  Episencial Sunny Sunscreen SPF-35 meets all of our needs and more.

• Protects sensitive skin with natural minerals zinc and titanium (no nano-particles).
• Milky texture creates a protective layer with no harsh chemicals and minimal white residue.
• Fortified with organic green tea extract to prevent sun-damage.
• Organic sesame, safflower and avocado oils to moisturize and nourish the skin.
• Beeswax and organic shea butter increase water resistance and sun protection without the use of petroleum or chemicals.

Unlike a lot of rub in sunscreens, it is not oily.  I wouldn’t say it’s scented, but you can definitely tell it has the sweetness of shea butter in it.  Which also makes it extra creamy and not drying.  The only thing that is disappointing is that it must be reapplied after use in the water. 

It didn’t irritate my girls sensitive skin, and more importantly, they didn’t get sunburned!  They both had it on for several hours without reapplying it, and we didn’t have any problems.
