Irish parents discover easy way to apply kids' sun cream ...and everyone's doing it
Putting sun cream on a toddler is a bit like painting a bicycle as someone cycles past on it.
They're not fans of the old SPF, are they? And, tantrums aside, it can be hard to make sure you've covered every inch of precious kiddy skin.
The heat is seriously on and personally, my nerves are shot worrying that my son is completely protected in the blistering sun.
I heard this tip earlier in the summer and it's quickly becoming the norm for Irish parents with wriggly kids.

Makeup brushes are the perfect applicator for SPF, particularly for little faces, necks and ears. They coat the entire surface and, if your kid is anything like mine, they don't annoy them nearly as much as big mauling hands.
I use a small one for Ziggy's face, neck and ears and a big fat bronzer brush for his legs and arms. He actually thinks it's kinda funny and pretends to do mine afterwards. This is a stark contrast from the GET OFF ME MAMMY (that's what he'd say if he could talk) reaction I'm used to.

Have you made the switch to a brush? You won't look back.
