(Other “spray” sunblocks, like Banana Boat, spray on a thick cream which you still have to rub in like a lotion.) KineSYS spritzes on with a pump similar to non-aerosol hairsprays. Though the amount of fluid that spritzes out is somewhat significant, so I usually rub it in anyways, but it’s closer to rubbing in water than a lotion. (It’s very slightly greasy, but dries immediately, and leaves no greasy residue.) It also sprays on clear, so if you didn’t want to rub it in, it would be fine. (I do spray it into my hand and rub it onto my daughter’s face, rather than spraying it directly onto her face.) My daughter has endured the scorching sun of the desert for two weeks and barely got darker with the use of this product. And it has cut the amount of time it takes to apply sunblock to a toddler in half–which makes it easier for me to convince her that it’s time to reapply every couple hours. The main drawback is that it’s a lot more expensive than I’d like to spend for a sunblock, but considering all the potential drawbacks of the alternatives, it’s not too much to pay. (And for those who are wondering, there IS a slight difference in the non-active ingredients between the kids’ sunblock and the adult version also produced by KineSYS.) The 4 ounce bottle is small, but since it’s a liquid, it goes further than larger lotion bottles. I went through maybe one and a quarter bottles for the entire summer, though we didn’t spend a lot of time at the pool or the beach. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. What I like about it the most is that my son LOVES it. For some reason it goes on so light and silky that he really doesn’t mind putting it on. I spray it in my hand and then wipe on his face and ears. We live in Florida so sunscreen is a daily thing. I keep this in the car and put it on before school, camp etc. I sort of wish I could use it for myself, but it’s just too expensive for both of us to use it daily. So I reserve it mostly for my son. I did have a problem with it. During a day at the waterpark I applied it before we arrived (930) and he was in the waterpark from 1030-3pm. I did reapply after lunch at about noon. It wasn’t enough. He did get pink on his cheeks and arms. It was not a bad burn though, he woke up totally pale the next day. Part of the problem was that he was standing in running water of the fountains 80 percent of the day which I imagine really just washed it off over and over. I probably should have reapplied another time too. Ever since then, if he is going to be doing something along those lines, I use a more solid cream sunscreen that seems to hold up better. But for the most part, we live in the sunniest climate and otherwise this sunscreen has been great. |
