Now comes the big BUT:
Some ingredients of the product are more than questionable, especially if you really apply the product in children. It contains hormonally active substances that altered the genitals of animals in experiments. Another ingredient is in generating cancer suspicion.
Who does not believe, Just google the following ingredients:
- Butyl Methoxydibenzolymethane
- Methylparaben
- Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate
... And even more
Thankfully, Amazon shows the ingredients so as picture, so that you can convince them that the substances are really included. Safe limits are adhered to, but the consequences are for such things unpredictable and who thinks in long-term damage in 20 years in the cosmetic products in childhood. If there are already concerns about this matter, so one should be careful about the use in my eyes, at least in children.
That also goes without, shows just a low-priced product of a large drugstore chain.
As much as I appreciate other products from Nivea, it may not be that of all sunscreen products no rethinking takes place at children. I find this irresponsible. Ultimately, everyone must decide for themselves, with what he einschmiert his children. The Nivea Sun Kids I will not use it for my but and also advise other parents to develop alternatives which do not use harmful ingredients, look around.
Update:
Due to the demand for alternatives:
In addition to the children's sunscreen 50+ sensitive DM also is the Bübchen Sensitive Sun Lotion 50+ (available here on Amazon) of the ingredients ago harmless (according Toxfox). The latter can be also applied much better than that of DM, smells good and leaves no white coloring on the skin. Recommended.
