Extremely sensitive skin, sunscreen recommendations?
Hi I’m a first time mom and a pale ginger. My skin has Ben so sensitive this entire pregnancy having to perfect body lotion, wash, and oil applications. Now that it’s warming up I’ve noticed I can hardly go outside in the afternoon I wasn’t outside for 10 minutes my face got burnt. I’m unsure of what sunscreen to use as my work is outside mostly in the morning. I’m scared to breakout or have any bad reaction. Anyone have similar experience and suggestions on sunscreen?
Even in the past I couldn’t use some common spray on sunscreen much had to use the baby rub on lotion and apply every hr.

I have facial eczema and the best sunscreen for me is Soltan baby from Boots. I can also recommend Coola but they are pricey.
Hi lovely, I buy La Roche Posay for both my son and I as we both suffer with crazy sensitive skin (I have psoriasis & my son has severe eczema) and they extensively allergy test their suncreams. Altruist is a really good brand too that I also use for my son if I can’t get the former. I would suggest a mineral based suncream as they are the ones recommended by dermatologists as they contain very few, or none, of the chemicals and irritants in most store brand creams x
Apostrophe has a good sunscreen for sensitive skin, it's the one I use!
