‍ ‍At Thinkbaby and Thinksport, we are continually expanding our mission to provide safe products by identifying consumer product categories with known human health issues. Most people wear sunscreen to reduce the chance of developing cancer, so why apply something that could potentially increase this risk? This question has unfortunately left many people moving away from using sunscreen at all.

Not only do ingredients in sunscreen interact with skin, but data shows after application of lotions, some of the same chemicals can be detected in the bloodstream. Many existing sunscreens have been brought to market with little concern for their safety. Simply looking at the ingredients you'll quickly realize you don't recognize any of them.

Note from Amazon reviews: A reader pointed out something that came up multiple times in the Amazon reviews for thinkbaby – that it tends to separate over time, and if it comes out of the tube anything other than white, it needs to be kneaded and/or shaken really, really well or you’ll burn because you’re not getting zinc oxide on your skin! We have had some intermittent experiences with the brand, and perhaps that’s why.‍ ‍The majority of sunscreens currently on the market are full of questionable ingredients and known carcinogens.

He was brave to trust a new brand with that skin condition!

However, a friend with vitiligo tried it and had no problem on his very sensitive hands. I would say to focus on reapplying more with this brand, and it may not be as strong as one would expect from an SPF 50. We did have one instance where my oldest got burned on his arm through the lotion, thinking the Florida sun was too much for him. My kids love the orange scent (which is apparently papaya!). Expect to spend a little extra time rubbing it in if you want it 95% clear. We discovered that it rubs in quite nicely, I would say about average for the mineral sunscreens we like, better than many. (Because I can’t guarantee the two brands are the same, although the ingredients are very close, thinksport is still in “ brands other people love.”) Like Badger, so many people love this brand that I had to give it a second chance. In 2017 / 2018, we retested thinkbaby at the request of many readers and viewers of my sunscreen spot on the news who weren’t happy to see that thinksport was so far down on the list.
