Eczema & Sunscreen
Submitted by judy on Sat, 06/02/2007 - 7:01pm. Children & FamilyMy daughter who suffers from eczema seems to also react to sunscreen. After applying, her face turns red with irritation. While I always look for sunscreen that is PABA and fragrance free, it's been a challenge finding one that doesn't cause her irritation. We've tried almost all the major brands including No AD and Neutrogena Sensitive Skin with little success. Recently, the online mom's groups suggested two brands to try for babies and kids with sensitive skin: Blue Lizard and California Baby.
Today I picked up Blue Lizard at CVS and so far so good. It comes in Regular formula as well as Sport, Sensitive and Fragrance Free. I'm pretty sure the Fragrance Free and Sensitive bottles are essentially the same and the price was the same for all four types which is good. It cost a whopping $8.99 for a small tube. But well worth it so she's not suffering physically and mentally with having to go around with a red face.
I will also hunt down California Baby perhaps at Whole Foods to compare pricing and product. Have fun in the sun!
