Sunscreen and Bug Spray
How do you apply these together? I have the Babyganics for both. They are non-aerosol bottles and I think they are both cream-based. Sunscreen first then the bug spray? It just seems so messy and a long drawn out process when I can barely get almost 3 yo DD to sit still.
Anyone have a good system/products they use?

Sunscreen and Bug Spray
dd's went to a outdoor in the woods camp last week. I applied sunscreen at home 1/2 before we left. When we got there, I sprayed them down with bug spray.
I used Aveeno sunscreen and off bug spray. ( I am posioning my kids lol. I have tried california baby and badger sunscreen but I hate it. The badger did nothing for my dd1, she came home much darker than I would have liked the first day. As for bug spray, I used OFF with DEET. I'm in CT with ticks and I don't want to risk it. A friends DD came home with a tick on her, using soray with no deet)

Re: Sunscreen and Bug Spray
I put the sunscreen on 1 kid first, then the other. Then go back to the first kid & spray bug spray on him & then spray the second. I use some kind of lemon eucalyptus bug spray that works great.

Sunscreen and Bug Spray
I bought the badger sunscreen with bug repellant in it, but then I read combined products aren't good because 1 should be reapplied more often than the other. Honestly, I haven't tried it yet because we usually aren't in a buggy area.

Dd pediatrician said apply sunscreen first- he also recommended only applying the bug spray to dd clothing to decrease skin absorption.
