The barrier to entry for mineral sunscreen is texture. Traditional Zinc Oxide creates a thick, pasty “Ghost Mask” that parents hate applying.

At Sheleys, we master “Clear-Zinc” Dispersion. We utilize specialized surface-treated Zinc Oxide powders suspended in plant-based emollients. This allows the mineral particles to spread uniformly across the skin without clumping. The result? A broad-spectrum physical shield that offers the transparency of a chemical sunscreen, with none of the chemical absorption risks.

The Science of Baby Sunscreen Formulation

Baby sunscreen formulation requires more conservative design choices than adult sun care products.

UV Filter Selection for Infant Skin

Baby sunscreens commonly prioritize:

  • mineral UV filters (such as zinc oxide or titanium dioxide)
  • low skin penetration potential
  • photostability under sunlight

Filter systems are selected based on:

  • regulatory approval for infant use
  • safety margins
  • skin tolerance profile

Skin Feel, Spreadability & White Cast Control

A common challenge in baby sunscreen is balancing:

  • effective UV protection
  • manageable white cast
  • comfortable application

Formulations are adjusted to:

  • spread evenly with minimal rubbing
  • reduce visible residue where possible
  • remain comfortable during wear

Cosmetic elegance is secondary to safety and predictability in baby sunscreen design.

Customizing Baby Sunscreen Product Line

Once target age group and exposure scenario are defined, customization usually focuses on three practical dimensions.

Formula Customization

Brands may customize based on:

  • mineral-only positioning
  • SPF level selection
  • fragrance-free requirement

Options include:

  • low-irritation preservative systems
  • simplified ingredient lists
  • texture adjustments for easier caregiver application

Packaging Solutions

Packaging for baby sunscreen products must support safety, hygiene, and caregiver convenience.

  • Squeeze Tubes
    Allow controlled application and portability.
  • Pump Bottles
    Reduce contamination risk during repeated use.
  • Small-Volume Bottles
    Suitable for travel or daycare environments.

Quality & Testing

Baby sunscreen products are subject to strict quality and regulatory expectations.

  • SPF & UVA testing
    Conducted according to relevant regional standards.
  • Stability testing
    Confirms formula performance under heat and light exposure.
  • Compatibility testing
    Ensures formula stability with selected packaging.
  • Microbial testing
    Required for leave-on infant products.

Asked Questions

Chemical filters (like Oxybenzone) absorb into the blood and can disrupt hormones. Mineral filters (Zinc) sit on top of the skin like a shield, reflecting UV. They are non-irritating and globally recognized as the safest option for infants.

We recommend Bag-on-Valve (BOV) continuous sprays or trigger sprays, but not aerosols. This avoids inhalation risks for the baby while keeping the convenience of a spray.

For babies, SPF 50+ is the market leader. Parents want maximum protection. However, SPF 30 is easier to formulate with less whitening. We can advise based on your target market preferences.

Yes. Our formulas are free from Oxybenzone and Octinoxate (the chemical filters banned in Hawaii). Zinc Oxide is considered the gold standard for marine safety.
