If you put sunscreen on your child very early on in their life, will that make them develop freckles?

You could try a brown eyeliner pencil. Hypoallergenic of course.

Putting sunscreen on a child and not putting sunscreen on a child has nothing to do with freckles. Freckles are genetic!

The way you word the question it say that you want to give your child freckles. Alot of sun and no sunscreen will do it. Depending on the type of skin. only fair skinned people get freckles.

Freckles are genetic. Some people only get freckles after sun exposure, and some just have freckles. Using sunscreen may delay freckles appearing on someone who only gets them with sun exposure. Freckles usually appear by age 2. If you're one of those people who were just born with freckles (such as myself) there is no way of getting rid of them or avoiding them.

No sunscreen will not give a child freckles, but genetics will.

Freckles are a genetic trait.
So, to answer your question, yes, you did, but not by putting sunscreen on them.

no it won't, opposite actually. i have freckles.. always have, my husband has a few, but our son has none. i can tell you from my own experience that when i use sunscreen, i get less freckles to show up. when i don't use any sunscreen, my freckles pop out all over.

freckles are already set in dna. My grandson has a freckle already that he was born with and it is on his butt. That spot will never see the day of light. Freckles are natural and lovely. Live and let be. Freckles are said to be kisses of the leprechans.

Freckles develop from sun damage.

Freckles are not caused by the sun
