A dad demonstrates spraying diluted sunscreen on kids with a paint sprayer. A dermatologist explains why this doesn't work: dilution breaks down the formulation and cuts protection. Don't do this.
Dad hack for you. The first thing you're going to need is a cordless paint sprayer that you can order off Amazon.
A for effort. But honestly this is why we do not leave men alone. I'm a board certified dermatologist and although this man's intentions were pure and good and I genuinely believe that do not put sunscreen that is diluted in a cordless paint sprayer.
To paint your kids or any.
Other.
Human being for that.
Matter. The good news is he at least tried to protect his kids eyes and nose so they don't inhale the particles. So that was like an A plus for effort. But the reality is when you're diluting sunscreen with water, which is what he did in his video, you're going to break down the formulation making it less consistent and less cohesive and less likely to protect your kids. So although you basically spent more money trying to figure out how to get the sunscreen on your kids, they're getting zero protection.
