#asktheexpert hello doctor which sun screen is best for 8 year old girl

A. For an 8-year-old girl, the best sunscreen should be gentle, effective, and safe for her sensitive skin. Here are some features to look for in a good sunscreen: Broad-spectrum protection: It should protect against both UVA and UVB rays. SPF 30 or higher: SPF 30 provides adequate protection for daily use. Mineral-based (Physical sunscreen): Sunscreens containing zinc oxide or titanium dioxide are gentle and less likely to irritate sensitive skin. These provide a physical barrier against the sun. Water-resistant: Ideal for kids who are active and might sweat or play in water. Some recommended sunscreens for children include: Neutrogena Pure & Free Baby Sunscreen SPF 50 Blue Lizard Australian Sunscreen SPF 30+ (Baby version) Aveeno Baby Continuous Protection Zinc Oxide Sunscreen SPF 50 Badger Baby Sunscreen SPF 30 Always do a patch test before using any sunscreen on your child to ensure no allergic reactions.
