Sunscreen Wipes/Towelettes?

[kristenrice]

Does anyone know where I can find towelettes pre-moistened with sunscreen? I think those would be much easier to deal with than the sprays and certainly easier than the lotions. We have never been to WDW in the summer and we are leaving in 3 weeks. My oldest DD and my DH both have very sensitive skin so we usually use the Neutrogena products.

Has anybody seen or used a product like this? If so, what was your experience?

I love sunscreen wipes!!! but I'm having difficulty finding them now.

No Ad used to make them-- they actually had Nemo on package-- but I can no longer find them. I can only find the Baby Blanket ones and they are very pricey per wipe.

There's one made by SunX that you can find on Amazon or on other sites. I'm hesitant to buy them though.

I'm skeptical about sunscreen wipes. I'm not sure they'd give you enough coverage - I'd sure hate to get burned! Dermatologists say that it takes a full shot-glass-full of sunscreen to cover your body adequately - how could a sunscreen wipe compare?

I use Neutrogena spray-on sunscreen for my arms, legs and chest, and a Neutrogena lotion sunscreen (usually the "Dry Touch" type) for my face. Both are great for sensitive skin.

For heavy-duty protection when at the waterparks, I use Coppertone Spray (in the blue bottle). That stuff goes on like cement - I had to scrub it off with a soapy washcloth to get it off! But it works great at the waterpark, because it doesn't disappear when you go in the water. I hated using it for everyday use (because of the texture) but loved it for water stuff.

My mother in law just told me that she saw the sunscreen wipes at Toys R Us. She said they were SPF 45. I am going to check it out.

Actually, the Neutrogena Cool Mist spray is what I am planning on taking along. With two fair-skinned DD's, a sensitive-skinned DH and me (fish-belly white!), I figure that we will go through a LOT of sunscreen. We can usually get about 3 applications for each of us out of one bottle of spray. I was thinking about spraying everyone before going out for the day and then bringing the towelettes (instead of the spray bottles) with us for touch ups.

That Neutrogena stuff is so expensive, but it is the best! I have the dry-touch stuff for our faces and it is like SPF 75 or something.

Thanks everyone for the advice. I will check on Toys'R'Us for the towelettes.

When we went to the parks last February, I bought some disposable dish-washing clothes (we were staying at Emerald Isle), cut them down to smaller sizes and soaked them with sunscreen, folded them and put them in small zip lock bags to bring with me. They were ligher than a bottle and stayed moist and easy to apply. They could be washed out and reused too. I would have preferred to buy some but they were nowhere to be found around my area so I had to settle for "homemade", but it worked!
