Be Sun Safe with Coppertone Continuous Spray for Moms & Kids
Category:
Children Skin Care Mom Bath and Body
What: Coppertone Continuous Spray
Why: Just in time for spring and summer, Coppertone introduces a new set of products which are a step up from last year’s spray sunscreens. For moms, the
Oil Free Continuous Spray is a great option if you don’t want to worry about reapplying. It’s long-wearing in water and out but unlike some of those all-sport sprays, it won’t clog pores or create a dirt-attracting glue.
For kids, the
SPF 50 for Kids
is a great bet. Both have the handy twist-to-close top and pack lighter than lotions. Great for on-the-go and in your purse, too, for those impromptu moments in the sun.
Price: $10.99

Baby Find: Organic Baby Care Line from SKIN by Monica
Category:
Children Skin Care
What: Organic Baby Care Line from SKIN by Monica Olsen 
Why: SKIN by Monica Olsen is the story of a model/actress/mom (who’s drop dead gorgeous) who, when pregnant with her first child, decided there simply weren’t enough baby/mommy skin care products that actually seemed safe or healthy to use.
Fast forward a few years and Monica Olsen has developed a line of skin loving products which are derived from nature and contain natural emollients and aloe vera instead of chemicals. Her Sweat Pea line is perfect for new moms and makes a great gift, especially the baby lotion which absorbs quicky and doesn’t irritate sensitive baby skin. Mom and baby will love it!
Price: $22.95

Kid Find: Treat Those Splinters and Cuts Before They Get Infected
Category:
Children Skin Care
What: Dr. Hauschka Mercurialis Wound Rescue
Why: Before Neosporin, there were holistic remedies for cuts and wounds. Here’s a new product (part of a larger line of Dr. Hauschka holistic treatments) designed to help ensure little things like splinters, hang-nails and cuts don’t get infected and lead to a doctor visit. This unique topical treatment is designed to reduce inflammation and soothe skin plus promote healing using all-natural ingredients. It’s also good to use on already or close-to-being infected wounds, according to Dr. H, and may save you a trip to the pediatrician.

Bath Find: Lather on the Cookies and Cream
Category:
Children Skin Care
What: SkinM.I.L.K. Shampoo and Body Wash
Why: Got milk? My kid can’t get enough of it…SkinM.I.L.K. to be exact. He’s crazy about the Cookies and Cream Shampoo/Body Wash and I’m a big fan as well. Not only does it leave him smelling so delicious I want to scoop him up and never let go, but the unique formula, which includes real milk proteins and vitamins A, D and E, has really done wonders on his sensitive, eczema-prone skin. He’s softer and smoother than ever.
Even more reason to love it—five percent of the proceeds for every purchase goes to Heifer International.
Price: $4.47

Tip: Don’t forget to stock up on
Skin Milk’s Anti-Bacterial Hand Wash ($5.59) to keep those germs away for flu season.

Baby Find: Ciao Bella for Baby’s Delicate Skin
Category:
Children Skin Care
What: Ciao Bella’s Precious Collection for Babies & Children
Why: Mix the cold weather with indoor heating and warmer baths and you have the perfect recipe for dry skin. Solution: fight the itch and pamper baby’s skin and yours with Ciao Bella’s natural skincare products.
Using carefully selected ingredients (many of which are organic) including natural botanicals and pure essential oils like lavender, apricot and grapeseed, their Precious Collection has everything you need to keep baby’s sensitive skin smooth, soft and heavenly-scented.
Start out with the Sample Set to see which product works for you and baby the best, but if I had to choose one over the others, I’d recommend the Body Lotion. All I need is little smidge and my hands instantly feel rehydrated and look five years younger. Plus the light lavender scent is quite relaxing.
