Last Summer we tested way too many safer sunscreens, only to find that they didn’t work, made us look like polar bears or smelled like antiseptic.  When we heard at the ABC Kid’s Expo that Thinkbaby had decided to tackle these issues, along with the unsettling problem of endocrine disruptors commonly found in mainstream sunscreens, we knew they’d create a be high quality, safe option to get the job done right.

My kids and I have been using Thinkbaby’s Safe Sunscreen for the last 4 weeks and we have finally found our  match!  We spend a LOT of time outside playing at the park, camping and swimming.  The sun and its promotion of healing vitamin D is so healthy for the kids, but too much exposure can negate the benefits.  We’ve found Thinkbaby’s Sunscreen easy to apply (a little goes a long way) and we haven’t burned once!

Even the FDA testing lab remarked, “We have not seen a sunscreen perform with this broad spectrum of UVA / UVB protection.”

Our Favorite Features (there are SO many things to like!)

• Free of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals
• Broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection
• Very stable under sunlight
• Not chemical base
• No Nano particles
• Rated at the highest level of Water Resistance
• Paraben Free and PABA Free
• High Zinc content – no Titanium Dioxide
• Immuno-enhancing properties to ward off free radicals caused by sunlight
• Produced in the USA
• Applies incredibly easily and absorbs easily despite having such a high Zinc content. SPF 30+
• Only sunscreen to ever pass Whole Foods Premium Care line requirements
• Does not have an obtrusive smell that many organic sunscreens have.
• Between the stability of the sunscreen, highest level of water resistance, and high molecular weight small amounts of the sunscreen go a long way and provide lasting protection.
• Includes micronized Zinc, does not contain Nano particles or chemicals utilized for UV absorption
• A member of the Safe Cosmetics Campaign Compact

Thank God It’s Tuesday Giveaway!

How about a little something for teens and parents this week for TGI Tuesday?  We have the perfect non-toxic and eco-friendly To Go Ware RePeat Bambo Utensil toolkit!

I don’t know about you, but I’ve found that keeping a set in my bag, glove compartment, lunch box or desk is the only way I don’t end up using those blasted disposables.  It reminds me of the grocery shopping trips where I load  my whole basket and head for the check out, only to remember too late that my reusable bags are at home.  Aarrgghh!

Our Favorite Features

• Includes a knife, fork, spoon and chopsticks (which double nicely as coffee stirrers)
• Carabiner allows you to clip and go
• Carrying case made of RPET, a sturdy, washable material made of recycled plastic bottles
• Heat and stain-resistant, won’t impart or absorb flavors
• Lightweight surprisingly durable
• Finished with a top grade, food safe wood oil
• Dishwasher safe, though hand-washing is better for longevity

Thank God It’s Tuesday Giveaway!
