In a strange way sun protection feels more essential this summer than any other, especially as clouds don't prevent any of us from burning. Each outing starts with a packing list of raincoats, sunhats and sun cream, most recently the new Simple Baby Sun Sensitive Protecting Suncare Cream and Simple Kid's Sun Sensitive Suncare Lotion.Simple have produced a new range of suncare lotions designed specifically for kids and babies with a special blend of active ingredients and sunflower goodness to naturally protect against sun damage and help prevent sun-induced allergies. Both the Kid's lotion and Baby cream are SPF 50 with a UVA star rating of three (max is five) and are water-resistant for 40 minutes.
Like all Simple products there is no colour, no unnecessary or harsh chemicals and no perfume. I could not find a difference between the Kid's and Baby products but found both easy to apply, not being too thick or leaving too many white streaks. The fact that the Simple range minimises my children's exposure to chemicals on their skin is a key plus point for me.
It may be perfect for young sensitive skin but the whole family has been happily using this new Simple range to protect our skin this summer.

We have been using Simple Baby Sun Sensitive Suncare Cream this summer, and we've been very happy with the level of protection it's given our one year old, Eva.The 75ml tube is handy to carry around and the cream applies easily, rubbing in well, unlike some other high factor (SPF 50) brands we've tried.
The cream comes with Simple's "no perfume, no colour" promise and is also water-resistant which is always a bonus.
I would certainly buy this product again.
