<\/p>\nSimple, has launched a new sun range using antioxidants Sunflower and Green Tea, with products suitable for all ages and skin types.<\/p>\n
Simple Sun Sensitive Protection products are photostable, meaning that UVA and UVB protection is maintained between applications. The Kids and Baby range protects whilst swimming for up to 40 minutes.<\/p>\n
On two of the hottest days of the year, we took Simple Kid’s and Baby Sun Sensitive Protecting Suncare Lotion SPF50 to Weston Super Mare beach, and Hengrove Play Park, Bristol.<\/p>\n
Both locations offer little to nothing in the way of shade, and both are huge family magnets.<\/p>\n
Both products offer high protection and both contained Sunflower extract to help the skin’s natural protection against the sun, and Pro-Vitamin B5 to actively restore, soften and smooth the skin.<\/p>\n

Emma Waverly tested out the Kid’s product on four year old Ben, and three year old Hannah on Weston beach.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis was the day that we were stepped up to level three heatwave alert. On Weston sands it was so hot it was almost too much. I really did worry about both my children as there wasn’t any shade and both were running in and out of sea water the colour of poo.<\/p>\n
\u201cI applied the sun protection all over both of them. I used plenty of it so they were white. The high protection is really the only suitable level for children’s skin in my opinion, and I would rather we had a streaky white covering then potential skin damage.<\/p>\n
\u201cI also used it on my own skin. I could feel that the block was a very thick barrier and I couldn’t understand how hot sweaty skin could cope with that layer of thickness but it did.<\/p>\n
\u201cNone of us got burnt, though both my children did have a healthy glow afterwards. It is difficult to be fair when they are in and out of water, and you have to apply the block quite regularly.<\/p>\n
\u201cOverall, I was impressed that we were not actually burnt to a crisp, such was the level of ferocity of the sun that day. The product did its job well and I would definitely buy it myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Holly Anne Michaels took her baby with her to Hengrove Park in Bristol on an equally hot day.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile my three year old Jacob was running around with his little friends, I was trying to keep my six month old baby Olivia, as shaded as possible. That is quite hard as there are not many places to keep out the sun there.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know babies shouldn’t be in the sun but in this weather you don’t have any choice. You have to use as much protection as possible. I had her in sun hats and with parasols but I was glad to try out this sun cream too.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was worried about it at first because it is very thick and I tested on myself as I can be quite allergic at times. I didn’t have any problems so I put it on Livvie and Jacob.<\/p>\n
\u201cNeither of them had any problems and neither of them really caught the sun. I don’t think you can rely totally on these kinds of products you need to use them as a back up to properly dressed children. You still have to be sensible with everything else your child wears, but I think this lotion did a good job.\u201d Simple Baby Sun Sensitive Protecting Suncare Cream SPF50 \u00a37.50<\/p>\n Simple Kid’s Sun Sensitive Protecting Suncare Lotion SPF50 \u00a38.00<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Simple, has launched a new sun range using antioxidants Sunflower and Green Tea, with products suitable for all ages and<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3162","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bristol-news"],"yoast_head":"\n
