My 2 year old has a really bad reaction to sunscreen. We currently use toddler option but i am now looking for another option as it seems like this is reacting for him as well on his face.
Does anyone have any suggestions for the 'best' sensitive option out there.

thanks

My DD has extremely sensitive skin! When normal sunblock is used on her skin it burns it till its red and blistery.

I have bumped up a thread that I started last year asking a similar question and got lots of great responses.

Just wanted to say I bought the soleo brand sunscreen. My boy doesn't have sensitive skin, but it definately is a very natural sunscreen and is really nice to use. Health shops sell it and commonsense organics do as well as lots of online pharmacys.
Goodluck finding something that works for your boy.

The advice I was given was to find a sunscreen that uses zinc oxide or titanium oxide as the active ingredient.

DD has sensitive skin but luckily she hasn't reacted to any of the sunscreens we have tried. I have found the Aveeno baby one best as it is moisturising as well.

I use the invisible zinc range for T. He has sensitive skins but doesn't react to this.
