Sun protection that keeps up with active kids. The BOB Kids Brush and Lotion Duo pairs our SPF 30 Mineral Powder Brush with our SPF 30 Sun Lotion to make everyday sun protection easier for both of you. Start the day with the smooth mineral lotion that rubs in easily and smells fresh and citrusy, then keep the fluffy purple brush nearby for quick, mess free reapplication at the park, playground, or practice.
Both formulas use mineral zinc oxide for broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and are water resistant for 80 minutes of swimming or sweating. The lotion leaves skin feeling soft while the brush makes touch ups simple, even for kids who like doing things themselves.
Two kid friendly formats working together so sun protection fits right into everyday life.
- Broad Spectrum SPF 30
- Water Resistant 80 Minutes
- Powder brush contains 0.11 oz (3 g) of mineral powder
- Lotion contains 3 fl oz (88.7 mL)
- Two formats that work together – Start the day with the smooth mineral lotion, then keep the fluffy purple brush nearby for quick, mess-free reapplication wherever the day takes you.
- Rubs in easily – The lightweight mineral lotion spreads smoothly without the thick, paste-like feel many mineral sunscreens have.
- Kids love the ultra-soft fluffy brush – The gentle brush feels great on skin and helps make sunscreen application something kids actually enjoy.
- Smells like citrus, not sunscreen – Tangerine and orange peel oils give the lotion a light, fresh scent kids like.
- Skin that stays soft – Nourishing oils help keep skin feeling comfortable while zinc oxide protects.
- Mineral-only protection – Zinc oxide sits on skin to physically block UV rays. No chemical UV absorbers.
- Water resistant for 80 minutes – Reliable protection for swimming, sweating, and everyday outdoor play.
- From a brand parents trust – Women-owned, cruelty-free, reef-friendly, and proudly made in the USA.

FAQs
SPF 30 blocks 96.7% of UVB rays, the level dermatologists recommend for everyday protection. The difference between SPF 30 and SPF 50 is smaller than most people think (98% vs 96.7%), and for daily use, what matters most is applying enough and reapplying consistently. A well-applied SPF 30 that goes on every day will protect your kid more than a higher SPF that only makes it out on beach days. That said, if you're heading into extended sun exposure, our BOB KIDS spray in SPF 50 is a great complement.
Everyday use, any time of year. UV exposure happens year-round, and kids are outside more than we often account for. School drop-off, recess, afternoon sports, weekend time outdoors. SPF 30 is designed for this kind of regular daily exposure, and the lotion and powder formats makes it easy to build sunscreen into any routine, not just summer beach days.
Yes. Zinc oxide is one of the most researched and recommended sunscreen ingredients for children. It sits on top of the skin and physically blocks UV rays rather than absorbing into the body, which is why so many parents who've done the research land on mineral-only for their kids.
Yes. No oxybenzone or octinoxate, the two ingredients most commonly linked to coral reef damage and banned in Hawaii. It's reef-safe and Hawaii-compliant.
BOB KIDS SPF 30 Sun Lotion and Brush On Mineral Powder are formulated for children 6 months and older. For infants under 6 months, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends sun avoidance and protective clothing rather than sunscreen.

All sunscreens need to be reapplied every 2 hours. BOB KIDS is both water and sweat resistant and retains SPF 30 protection after 80 minutes of water activity or sweating. After 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, or immediately after towel drying, BOB KIDS needs to be reapplied.
Yes! Brush On Block contains none of the sunscreen ingredients that have been banned to protect ocean life. Additionally, the products contain non nano-sized particles.
To avoid accidental spills by children, BOB KIDS is not refillable.
While we wish that we had a really fun answer for this, BOB is simply short for Brush On Block®!
