How do sunscreens work?

The sun emits ultraviolet (UVA & UVB) rays that can cause all kinds of skin damage. UVA rays penetrate deep into your and your baby’s skin. UVB rays only reach the surface of your baby’s skin.

SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. This is the number that you’ll see on the side of your sunscreen bottle, like SPF 30, for example. SPF is a measure of your sunscreen's ability to protect against UVB rays and their damaging effects.

What is a mineral sunscreen?

A mineral sunscreen is just what it sounds like - a sunscreen that uses minerals as its active ingredients. The minerals most often used are zinc oxide and titanium dioxide.

Are mineral sunscreens safe for babies?

Sunscreens that contain only mineral-based active ingredients are safe to use on babies. This is indisputable.

What to look for when choosing sunscreen for sensitive skin?

Look for a sunscreen that’s made with mineral active ingredients, is hypoallergenic & soothes your skin with natural, moisturizing ingredients. Depending on what you prefer, choose from Mustela’s Mineral Sun Lotion, Spray or Stick!
