About This Product

Is Heliocare 360 Paediatric Lotion 200ml right for you?

Families with multiple children — The 200ml format provides enough product to cover the whole family generously for an extended period without running out mid-summer.
School-age children with active outdoor lifestyles — Sports days, outdoor breaks and after-school activities mean frequent SPF needs — the larger size makes daily reapplication sustainable.
Beach and holiday families — Full-body application for a family of four requires a large format SPF. The 200ml paediatric lotion covers everyone without the anxiety of running out.
Parents of children with eczema or sensitive skin — The 100% mineral, fragrance-free formula is safe for the most reactive skin from 6 months of age.
Value-conscious families wanting clinical quality — The same Heliocare Paediatric formula in a larger format — clinical protection at better value per ml.

How Heliocare 360 Paediatric Lotion 200ml works — the science

Identical to the standard Paediatric Lotion in formulation, the 200ml size delivers the same clinically validated protection: 100% mineral filters (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) that physically reflect UVA and UVB radiation without chemical skin penetration, alongside Fernblock® for cellular photoprotection and a soothing, fragrance-free emollient base safe from 6 months. The generous format means parents can apply the correct amount — 2mg per cm² of skin surface — without rationing, which is the most common cause of underprotection in children's sunscreen use.

What you will notice — and when

Immediately: Smooth, gentle application with minimal white cast for a mineral formula. Children tolerate it well — no stinging and no strong scent.
Daily use: Consistent full-body coverage without the anxiety of product running low. The generous format encourages proper application amounts.
Long-term: Children protected from UV during their formative years have dramatically lower lifetime skin cancer risk — the most impactful sun protection decision you can make for them.

How to use Heliocare 360 Paediatric Lotion 200ml

Apply generously to all exposed skin 20 minutes before outdoor activity — give the mineral filters time to settle and bind to the skin surface.
Do not forget ears, the back of the neck, shoulders, tops of feet and the scalp parting — the areas children most often burn.
Reapply every 90 minutes during active outdoor play and immediately after swimming, towelling or excessive sweating.
For school days, send the bottle for outdoor sports — children should not rely on morning-only application for full-day outdoor activities.

Key ingredients & what they do

Ingredient	What it does for you
Zinc Oxide (mineral)	Broad-spectrum mineral filter that physically reflects UV without chemical skin interaction — the safest SPF active for infant and child skin.
Titanium Dioxide (mineral)	Complements zinc oxide for full-spectrum UVA and UVB coverage — both are non-nano grade for added safety in children's formulas.
Fernblock®	Adds cellular-level UV defence even in young skin — an additional protection layer beyond what mineral filters alone provide.
Fragrance-Free & Paraben-Free Base	Eliminates the most common sensitisers in children's skincare — safe for eczema-prone and atopic skin.
Gentle Emollients	Maintain skin hydration and comfort during frequent outdoor applications — prevent the dryness that causes children to resist wearing sunscreen.

Dr. Bangalee's clinical perspective

Dr. Bangalee Recommends

"One of the most consistent findings in skin cancer research is that childhood sun protection has a disproportionate impact on lifetime risk. Parents who use clinical-grade mineral SPF on their children from a young age are making a genuinely important health decision. The 200ml size removes the practical barrier of running out — families that have enough product apply more of it." — Dr. Rajeev Bangalee, MBBch

What our patients say

"The large size is perfect for our family of three kids. We go through sunscreen quickly in summer and knowing I have a good supply of clinical quality SPF means I never compromise on application." — Belinda, 40

"My kids used to fight about sunscreen because it stung their eyes. This one is so gentle they do not even object. Getting them to wear SPF is no longer a battle." — Craig, 38

"We use this for the whole family at the beach. The 200ml lasts the whole holiday and I can apply it as generously as needed without worrying about running out." — Samantha, 34

Frequently asked questions

Is the formula the same as the 50ml Paediatric Lotion?	Yes — identical formulation, larger size. Same clinical protection, same ingredient profile, simply more product per purchase.
What age can I start using this?	Safe from 6 months of age. For infants under 6 months, shade and protective clothing are recommended over any sunscreen product.
How much should I apply?	For full SPF protection, apply a generous layer — approximately 1 teaspoon for a child's face and neck, more for body application. Under-application is the most common mistake with sunscreen.
Can adults use this?	Yes — any adult with sensitive, reactive or post-procedure skin can use this safely. The mineral-only formula is one of the gentlest available.
What is Fernblock®?	Polypodium leucotomos extract — a fern plant antioxidant that absorbs UV radiation at the cellular level, reducing DNA damage and photoageing. Clinically proven to enhance the effectiveness of topical SPF.
