Non-toxic sunscreen for babies and kids.

In my never ending search for NON-toxic products for your home and body…I discovered Pipette Baby. Pipette Baby has amazing non-toxic products for babies and kids. I was looking for sunscreen for my new granddaughter. I know that conventional sunscreens are so filled with harmful chemicals and I did not want to expose her sweet skin to all those toxins.

Pipette Baby caught my attention for many reasons. Here are just a few:

• They believe that biotechnology has the power to change the world. Their scientists devote their energy to creating effective, safe skincare that doesn’t harm the environment or animals — because our babies and our earth deserve better, right?
• They created squalane. Squalene is a moisturizing superhero that all babies are born with. Their expert scientists created a replica of squalene, called squalane, that’s derived from renewable sugarcane and is super-safe for their delicate skin. Win Win!
• They started creating products by banning over 2,000 ingredients, more than the United States (12) and the EU (1376). And then used their rigorously tested clean ingredients to create effective, nurturing formulas — no fluff, no fillers. Fluff belongs in teddy bears…not skin care products.
• They treat the whole world like it’s our baby: no animal testing, no deforestation, and no developing near rainforests. Their conscious and minimal inner and outer packaging is recyclable, and they use renewable plastic sources whenever possible for their bottles.

In the case of Pipette Baby…

The fact that it does NOT leave a white residue on the skin really caught my eye. I do love chemical free sunscreens but I also am not a big fan of the ghost look after I apply.

So, I ordered a tube of sunscreen just to test it out. And, guess what? They are right! It does not leave a white residue on the skin. Plus, it smells nice and…I do like the tube itself. You can tell that it is made from recycled materials (which I love).

After digging into their website a bit I found out that they have many other ‘good for the skin' products for babies and moms. I plan on buying quite a few for my daughter to use on her new baby.

For anyone in your life who has babies and kids that would LOVE a product that is not harmful to them. Check them out. You have everything to gain…and nothing to lose, right?

I have written about non-toxic sunscreens in the past. (Please take a look at ‘Is Sunscreen Safe‘. This post explains the reasons we do NOT want to use conventional sun screen. ALL of those chemicals are more harmful to us that the UV rays from the sun.)

And, just in case you had no idea (I did not until recently) check out this article from the National Ocean Service. They have discovered that skin care chemicals are harming our ocean reefs. Sheesh!

Happy summer! Enjoy the sun…and be safe.
