Cetaphil Sun Kids Very High Protection Liposomal Lotion SPF 50+ is a paediatric sunscreen lotion formulated for children aged 1 year and older with all skin types, including sensitive skin. It delivers broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB radiation through a combination of photostable chemical UV filters including Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Ethylhexyl Triazone, and Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol [Nano]. The liposomal delivery system is designed to support skin hydration while facilitating even distribution of the formulation across the skin surface. Skin-conditioning actives including Panthenol, Glycerin, Tocopherol, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder, and Lecithin are incorporated to support the skin barrier during sun exposure. The formulation provides up to 4 hours of water resistance, making it suitable for use during outdoor activities and water play. It is fragrance free, paraben free, and hypoallergenic, and has been dermatologist tested and assessed for tolerance on children's delicate skin. The pump dispenser format allows controlled, hygienic application to face and body.

Quick Tips - Apply the lotion at least 15 to 20 minutes before stepping outdoors so the UV filters have adequate time to bond uniformly to the skin surface before exposure begins.
Reapply every 2 hours regardless of the SPF level — water, sweat, and physical contact progressively reduce the active UV filter layer on the skin surface even within the 4-hour water resistance window.
- Use the pump dispenser to dispense onto fingertips first before spreading, as direct pump-to-skin application on small children may deliver too much product in one area and result in uneven coverage.
Store the bottle upright with the pump locked when not in use to prevent accidental dispensing and to avoid product degradation from heat above 30°C in beach bags or car interiors.
