Not so mild. 
2007-08-28
My daughter has a mild eczema on her elbows and knees.
It gets worse if I use any soaps/cleasers other than Cetaphil.
I bought this sunscreen because I heard that it was very mild.
Wrong, at least for my daughter. She had rash all over her arms.
Before, she used Coppertone and Aveeno without any problem. I am going back to Aveeno.

Even though normally I'd hate paying this much for a bottle of sunscreen, with this product it's worth it. My daughter has a terribly sensitive skin; she can't go without sunscreen, but she also has a bad reaction to most types I've tried this summer - except for this one. I've tried it on our pediatrician's recommendation, and so far, it works just great.
Great

This sunscreen is a great product. It provides TRUE full spectrum UVA/UVB protection.
Most sunscreens provide only partial UVA protection. Worse, they contain chemicals that are now being scrutinized because many scientific studies demonstrate that the chemicals themselves may be harmful to the skin!
This product contains micronized zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. The product dries clear on your skin, and effectively reflects the sun's rays.
When you can't avoid the sun and/or cover up adequately, Blue Lizard Baby Australian Suncream is a great choice for sun protection.
Great for really sunny areas

We spent the summer on the beach in Southern Africa. Coppertone was not strong enough and the kids started to color after 30 min in sun (at least the parts not covered by Rashies and hats). This product is great and after the entire summer the kids were still white. My kids also break out with other brands and this did not happen with Blue Lizard (adult and baby formulas both). I used it too and it was the only thing that prevented me (a very pale person) from burning..and I used several other top brands 45spf too. Worth the expense!
Great for babies

I bought this product as it is safer than the lotions that absorb chemicals into the skin. A word of caution, this is not a typical lotion that goes on smoothly... it is meant to sit on the skin so does have a bit different texture to it. My son's skin is very sensitive and this did not cause any issues. He was in the sun a TON last summer and never had an issue with sunburn. I reapply every hour to be on the safe side.
Old product

I am very disappointed that Amazon sent me a suncream which is almost expired. You can notice that this suncream was made a long time ago just looking at the case.
I received it yesterday, and the expiration date is Aug 2008. I just have 5 months to use it until it is expired.
I believe Amazon should not sell cosmetics with this upcoming expiration date.

All I have to add to early comments are a few words on water resistance. The standard Blue Lizard formula advertises it is water resistant for 240 minutes. This stuff is not, even though I see the same claim made for it on some web sites. Chemical sunscreens, which are in the standard Blue Lizard, are absorbed into the skin, which makes them more water resistant. The ingredients in Baby, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, sit on top of the skin and are more easily washed off. I sent a note to the Blue Lizard people who confirmed this. So be careful about reapplying this more frequently if you or your kids get wet. Unfortunately, we learned the hard way with our 8-year-old.

the product worked well for my daughter. she had an allergic reaction to all other common named sunscreen makers. this one was gentle enough for her skin. the product is expensive, that is a problem.
