Choosing the Right SPF for Your Child

As parents, safeguarding our children's health is a top priority, especially when it comes to protecting their delicate skin from the sun's harmful rays. Selecting the right SPF for your child is crucial in providing adequate protection against sunburns and reducing the risk of long-term skin damage. At Larkly Suncare, we understand the importance of choosing the perfect SPF tailored to your child's needs while making the experience easy, fun, and grease-free.

Understanding SPF

SPF measures the level of protection sunscreen offers against UVB rays, which are primarily responsible for sunburns. When selecting sunscreen for your child, it's essential to consider their age, skin type, and planned activities.

Age and Skin Type

As children grow older, their skin becomes more resilient, but it still requires protection. Children with fair skin are more prone to sunburns and may need a higher SPF compared to those with darker skin tones. Larkly Suncare is suitable for all skin types! Ensuring every child receives the protection they need and is a super fun applicator to encourage kids to include sun protection in their everyday life.

Choosing the Right SPF

For everyday use, an SPF of 30 or higher is recommended for children. However, if your child will be spending extended periods outdoors or participating in water activities, opt for sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Larkly Suncare's natural ingredient formula provides protection against both UVA and UVB rays, shielding your child's skin from harm.

Application Tips

Proper application is key to ensuring effective sun protection. Apply sunscreen generously to all exposed skin at least 15 minutes before going outside, paying extra attention to areas prone to burning such as the face, ears, and shoulders. Don't forget the lips, using a lip balm with SPF. Larkly Suncare's lightweight and non-greasy formulas make application a breeze, ensuring your child stays comfortable throughout the day.

Reapplication

Sunscreen should be reapplied every two hours, or more frequently if your child has been swimming or sweating. Encourage your child to take regular sunscreen breaks, especially during peak sun hours between 10 am and 4 pm. Larkly Suncare's convenient packaging makes reapplication effortless, allowing you to top up your child's protection with ease and carry it around with you wherever you go!

Making Sun Protection Fun!

Instilling sun safety habits in your child can be enjoyable with Larkly Suncare's vibrant packaging and soft brush. With Larkly Suncare, sun protection becomes a part of your child's daily routine, ensuring they develop healthy habits that last a lifetime.
