Protect your Little Rays of Sunshine.
Are you confident that the Sun Lotion you use on your children is as good as it claims to be? Would it alarm you to know that most sun lotions have never been tested to medical standards to prove that they work?
Thankfully, some sun lotions have been tested and approved to medical standards. In fact, Delph is one of the few Sun Lotions that can be prescribed by the medical profession to people with really vulnerable skin - reassuring testament for all parents wanting to protect their children from the sun’s harmful rays.
It is also refreshingly different when it comes to price. Many Sun Lotions designed specially for children are ridiculously expensive, forcing parents to either use it sparingly or make cut backs in other areas. Delph’s pricing starts from £4.79, making it the ideal range for families who want great protection without breaking the bank!
It has an SPF factor of 30 and is available in a handy palm sized bottle – perfect for stashing in your handbag – and a spray that puts the fun factor into sun factor by spraying on green so you don’t miss bits! Of course, the green colour magically disappears as you rub it in but your children will probably wish it didn’t!
Protecting your children from the sun is extremely important. Not only is being badly burned a painful and miserable experience for children, but if they are burned six times before the age of 18, their chances of getting skin cancer increases by a staggering 50%.
Sun Protection experts offer parents 5 top tips for protecting children:
1. The sun’s harmful rays penetrate clothes so apply whilst inside. Don’t forget the awkward areas like tips of ears and backs of knees!
2. No Sun Lotion is towel resistant so
re-apply in the shade as soon as they are dry.
3. Children should always wear a hat in the sun to protect their scalps from burning
4. Sun Lotion is only water resistant for twenty minutes so make sure they get out, dry off and have a fresh application at regular intervals. Even if they are wearing a t-shirt in the water, this won’t protect them – a wet t-shirt only has an SPF of about 2 and a dry t-shirt has an SPF of about 10
5. Don’t let them dehydrate! Make sure they drink plenty of fluids while in the sun and apply After Sun in the evening to cool and hydrate their skin
