What Sunscreen do Doctors recommend most?
Today’s discussion on “What is the most recommended sunscreen” was sponsored by Blue Lizard, an American sunscreen producer.
This is my handsome son playing outside when he was little. PS. There was no water in the bucket!
What is the Most Recommended Sunscreen by Pediatricians and Dermatologists?
When my kids were little, sunscreen producers only JUST started coming out with sunscreen for babies and kids. SPF levels weren’t very high, if noted at all. We usually put a big shirt on the kids, waited until after the sun went down in the sky a little and hoped for the best as far as sunburns.
Today is a whole new ballgame. There are so many sunscreen formulations, it’s hard to sort it all out. Which one should you choose? Why not pick the sunscreen that doctors prefer?
What is the most recommended sunscreen by pediatricians and dermatologists? Blue Lizard is the brand most recommended by pediatricians and dermatologists. Why? Because their products are not only effective, but their Baby and Sensitive formulas are as safe as a sunscreen formula can be.
The weather in Michigan today was super cloudy. One thing I always wondered about, for myself as a super pale individual or for my children, is do I need to apply sunscreen today?
Blue Lizard answers that question for me by providing the answer right on their bottle. Their patented BPA-free Smart Bottle™ changes colors in the presence of harmful UV rays, reminding you to cover up. Even on this cloudy overcast Michigan day, indications were that sunscreen needed to be applied, all I had to do was look at the bottle!
In the 3 oz. size the lid changes color and in the 5 oz. size the bottle changes color. Isn’t that cool? Even a little child would know just by looking at the bottle that they should be applying their sunscreen. How great would this be for kids going to camp?
Here’s just a few reason why Blue Lizard is recommended by Doctors:
- Blue Lizard is American made (YAH!), but was originally created in Australia where sunscreen standards are the strictest in the world.
- Blue Lizard has five sunscreen formulas available: Baby, Sensitive, Face, Sport & Regular – All are broad spectrum UVA/UVB coverage (SPF 30+)
- Baby & Sensitive Formulas are paraben-free, chemical-free and fragrance-free; Face is also oil-free and all formulations are mineral-based containing Zinc Oxide. (Yeah for fragrance-free you know how much I hate smelly things!) Face is also non-comedogenic, which means it does not block pores!
- Sport & Regular are extremely water resistant. These formulas meet Australian standards of staying on in 240 minutes of whirlpool water.

Blue Lizard is good sunscreen, and now I know it is the most recommended!
I like the name, i’ve never seen it here, but will look for it and buy it if i find it.
Definitely great guide! I get tanned easily. It is very important to keep children from getting sunburned. Skin cancer is deadly. I use sunscreens on my nephews so they don’t get sunburned
I am glad to hear about Blue Lizard. I am going to get some today, as we are destined to the beach over the weekend. Thanks for the direction.
I love that the smart bottle tells you when you need to apply it. I need a little nagging sometimes.
Have to give this a try looks good
I like that these sunscreens have good ingredients. I’ll look into getting them for myself.
I haven’t tried Blue Lizard yet. I’ve only heard good things.
I really like this brand called Blue Lizard sunscreen. It is broad spectrum without all the chemicals and fragrance that are usually in sunscreen. I would like to get a couple of bottles.
I would love the BLUE LIZARD AUSTRALIAN SUNSCREEN SENSITIVE 8.75 OZ BOTTLE. I like that it has a sensitive formula without harsh chemicals and I would love the large bottle because we go through sunscreen quite a bit. Sunscreen is vital, especially during outdoor events in the summer.
i also like the BLUE LIZARD AUSTRALIAN SUNSCREEN FACE 3 OZ TUBE
Thank You for the giveaway…living in the desert southwest we use sunscreen on our face/neck every day, unless you want skin like an old catcher’s mitt after a few years, so we would choose the Blue Lizard Face sunscreen.
Want to try the face sunscreen
The face sunscreen would be great because I have yet to find one that I like! Would be fun to try. Thanks so much for the chances to win.
Having a 4 month old, I’d really love the baby sunscreen. I’d love to say that I’d like the gallon of it! I have really fair skin and I know my baby will burn very badly also.
