Sunscreen for kids with sensitive skin - something I just learnt!

[KimB]

I have the opposite problem - sunscreen with zinc in it affects my DD3 and most of my other kids. Poor DD3 was so bad and I had no clue what was causing it until the lightbulb went off lol.

Glad you figured out what it was.
My DS has problems with some sunscreens. The banana boat baby sensitive gives him eczema. The best one I have found is Nivea, either the child one or just normal.

Glad you found her trigger. As an adult with the same issues I totally empathise on the relief of the discovery. FOr me it's the titanium dioxide.... nothing worse than an angry, itchy, red rash all over your face.

Wow, so it's common to be allergic to the titanium dioxide and zinc oxide as well that can make things tricky I bet!

Thanks for your feedback and tips girls. Hopefully by elimiating the one I think is the culprit (it's in the bin now!), DD will be OK with the other brands I have. I'll keep the other brands you girls have mentioned in mind if we still experience issues.
