That being said, mineral sunscreens like this one are incredibly stable and the "trick" to using a sunscreen like this later in its life is simply to use more.
Good luck!

Same. Although this might be nice for a quick application for something outdoors that doesn't need a full slathering. Hope this is more convenient than the lotion because that usually ends up everywhere with my 1.5 year old

As for the concerns about sunscreen chemicals, there unfortunately is a lot of debate on the matter. The FDA has/is conducting several studies [fda.gov] on the absorption of some chemicals within sunscreens. There is a good writeup on their findings from Harvard Med School [harvard.edu], as well as the American Academy of Dermatology [aad.org].
While the main active ingredient in this sunscreen, Zinc Oxide, has been deemed "Generally Recognized As Safe and Effective" (GRASE) by FDA, the two others (Octinoxate & Octocrylene) have yet to be classified.
If you're planning on using this with an infant, consider this only an extra safety step to protect your baby. Babies don't react the same way children/adults do in heat, so don't burn your child thinking that any sunscreen will prevent it. Keep them in shade, out of direct sun for more than a few minutes, wearing SPF clothing, and keep them hydrated. Here's the FDA's recommendations [fda.gov] on being in the sun with infants.
