How to use
Apply generously to exposed skin 20 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply every two hours and after swimming, sweating or towelling off. Do not rely on sunscreen alone: use shade, clothing and hats too. For babies under 6 months, minimise direct sun exposure and ask your GP before using sunscreen. Patch-test when introducing something new.

Customers praise this natural mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin and eczema-prone children. "Light and easy to put on," it provides SPF50 protection without irritation. Many note it "doesn't hurt the eyes" and is fragrance-free. Some mention it feels thick or oily, and leaves a white cast that requires rubbing in. Water resistance is uncertain.
Wonderful!! Doesn’t hurt the eyes and keeps us nice and safe during the High UV days 🥰
Love this sunblock! Will only use Noody products now for my child
By far one of the better sunscreens out there for kids, its light and easy to put on/rub in. Having used it on my face I would say it can feel a bit oily but I am yet to find a sunscreen that doesn't. Would absolutely recommend to anyone, sensitive skin or not it is definitely a winner!
These products are absolutely amazing!! Perfect for my little girls skin 😊 im not at the point where im considering a subscription xx
Have bought this for my son who has eczema.
Have only used it for a week but so far it seems great for his skin!
Bought this for my grandson as he has reacted to other sunblock products. It was great and didn’t cause a flare up of his mild eczema. Great to apply and good protection.
This stuff has been a life saver for my boy in this hot weather. He doesn't scratch, and it doesn't irritate his skin at all.
Excellent
We love the Calm Balm and moisturiser. The sunscreen didn’t disappoint. Rubs in easily, and is not thick like other SPF50s.
Not sure it would do well in water, but a good one to have in the arsenal of sunblocks and much nicer for regular use than others.
I’ll be using it myself!
The sunscreen goes on really nicely - not as thick as a couple of other natural mineral sunscreens we've tried. We use this for our 1 year old and our 3 year old.
Going to buy some more!
I was so excited to try this new product for my son. Loved the packaging as always! The coverage was really good though I found it a bit thick. I like that it was fragrance free but at first I thought it has a weird smell, later on I got used to it. It’s a great product for everyday use not just for summer time.
Great sunblock for the kids, is very thick. Love that it is great on sensitive skin and fragrance free!
Used on two littles with very sensitive skin. No reactions and for the first time not a battle to apply spf!
Was about to reorder my sons sunblock ready for summer. We have to go natural as he gets eczema. This popped up just before I was going to place my order and man I am glad it did! It has a lovely smell (yet very subtle) and it goes on well! Will definitely be reordering again! ❤️
After months of non stop skin irritation due to various “sensitive skin” sunblocks this one immediately cleared up her irritation! I love that it’s both incredibly effective sun protection but also really moisturizes. From now on this is our go to!
I just love having a natural sunscreen option available in NZ. Its always been so difficult to find sunscreen that im comfortable to use on my children's skin. Previously having to shop overseas for natural options. It is a lovely product to apply however I did use it on my own face and found it to be a bit oily. Which is probably the coconut oil, so I won't be using it but its fine for the kids.
I really like the consistency. Its not oily but also not drying on the skin. It does however leave a white cast, so you have to work it into the skin. Kids like it a lot.
