Chemical sunscreens are definitely not as effective as a physical block. I've used both and the physicals are great for kids who have sensitive skin; the downside is that they are a lot harder to blend in and if you have a squirmy kid that's pretty…

Great post, Jen! There will be no more golden tans for this mom - and certainly not for my fair-skinned children.

I am very fair skinned and so are both of my children. I grew up on Long Island so trips to the beach often meant me turning bright red and resembling a lobster. I was told by friends, family and doctors that skin cancer is as a result of skin damag…

Summer is coming - be choosy about your sunscreen!

I am very fair skinned and so are both of my children. I grew up on Long Island so trips to the beach often meant me turning bright red and resembling a lobster. I was told by friends, family and doctors that skin cancer is as a result of skin damage done during childhood. So when I had children I immediately went out and picked up the highest SPF that I could find. I didn't look at any of the ingredients that were listed on the back of the box. Instead I only looked at the SPF number. But as ti… Continue

She had picked out her Cinderella costume and Dylan was going to be a pirate princess. But that wasn't how my morning was going.
