Wow, glad I don't have this sunscreen but I'll be checking out the boys daycare as they use Cancer Soc sunscreen. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I got an email about this - that is so bad. We purposely bought their sunscreens because you would think that they of all people would be careful about their products  -------------

I am also wondering about other types of Cancer Society sun screen - that is the brand I was using when I recently got badly burnt! I have since switched to Nivea and its much much better. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

They use the Cancer society one in our daycare but I take our own for Gina. DH used to use it too and thought it was great stuff, but has switched to the brand I use (Estee Lauder) ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

I've gotten burnt alot this summer with cancer society kids sunscreen (not the spray bottle) I'm avoiding the sun at the moment, but I think I'll get another brand once this one runs out - thankfully Seb is more "sun-resistant" than me  and hasn't been burnt once.-------------
