Inside, soft fleece keeps baby‘s skin dry by drawing pee into the absorbent insert placed inside the pocket of the diaper. Each insert consists of three layers of microfiber terry cloth that can absorb –10 times its weight in liquid. Inserts are also anti­allergenic and anti-bacterial.

So make sure you apply the cream at home and especially for babies it is best to work in the sunscreen before you put on the clothes.

Experts, however, recommend that the sunscreen be applied every two hours and especially after each dip in the pool.

Chemical sun blocks contain several ingredients that absorb mainly UVB and seine UVA rays and prevent damage to the skin.

How many of us can keep our children indoors during the recommended hours of 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.?
