Product details

Kids Pure Zinc SPF 50 is our zinc cream for children from 6 months. The one active ingredient is 25% non-nano zinc oxide, giving high protection from UVA and UVB.

No artificial fragrance, no parabens, nothing from animals. Made in Australia.

Also in a Twin Pack: two 100g pump tubes for less.

Always read the label and follow the directions for use.

How to use

Put it on before your child heads outside, on dry skin, and don't skimp. Because it's rich in zinc it starts out thick: rub a dab between your fingertips to soften it, then work it in until it disappears.

Reapply every two hours, and after swimming, sweating or towel drying. Keep it out of your eyes. For children over 6 months, and grown-ups too. Keep babies under 6 months out of direct sun.

Always read the label and follow the directions for use.

Directions for use

Apply liberally at least 20 minutes prior to sun exposure. Do not rub in. Reapply every 2 hours & after swimming or towelling.

Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Sunscreen is only one part of sun protection: also cover up, wear a broad-brimmed hat and sunglasses, and seek shade. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure. Frequent use and re-application in accordance with directions is required for effective sun protection.

How to apply

Sunscreen on, out the door.

Make sunscreen part of getting ready, like shoes and a hat.

  1. Step 1: Step 1

    Before they go out

    Put it on at home, on dry skin, before swimmers and sand get involved.

  2. Step 2: Step 2

    Use plenty

    A thin smear won't give the SPF on the tube. Soften a dab between your fingertips and spread it evenly.

  3. Step 3: Step 3

    Don't miss a spot

    Ears, the back of the neck, shoulders, the backs of knees and the tops of feet are the spots that get missed.

  4. Step 4: Step 4

    Go again

    Reapply every two hours, and after swimming, sweating or towel drying. A rashie, a hat and some shade take a lot of the load.

FAQs

Kids sunscreen questions

What age is it for?

From 6 months old. Babies younger than that should stay out of direct sun, with shade, clothes and a hat instead of sunscreen. There's also Baby SPF 30 for babies and toddlers.

Kids SPF 50 or Baby SPF 30?

Both use 25% non-nano zinc oxide as the only active ingredient and have no artificial fragrance. Kids is SPF 50 high protection for busy, outdoor kids. Baby is SPF 30, with apricot kernel oil in the cream.

When do kids need sunscreen?

Whenever the UV index is 3 or above, which in most of Australia is most of the year. Check the daily UV forecast in the free SunSmart app or on the Bureau of Meteorology website.

Does it contain fragrance?

There's no artificial fragrance. The full ingredient list is in the label information on this page.

Does it go on white?

All that zinc can look pale at first. Keep rubbing and it settles in.

Is it water resistant?

Only the water resistance printed on the label applies, and it's in the label information on this page. If the label doesn't give one, don't rely on it in the water. Either way, reapply after swimming, sweating or towel drying.

Any tips for getting kids to wear it?

Make it part of the routine: sunscreen, hat, shoes, out the door. Many parents let kids pick a coloured zinc stick for their nose, so they can see where it's on.

Can adults use it?

Yes. It's SPF 50 for anyone over 6 months.

Where is Sun Zapper made?

Right here in Australia. We're an Aussie-owned company and we've been making zinc sunscreen at home since 1995.
