Sunscreen for toddler with eczema?
Hi,
My daughter gets eczema patches periodically and has sensitive skin. She's also super fair, so she burns really easy! Last year we were able to use Aveeno Sensitive Skin baby sunscreen and it worked fine, but now she is reacting to it and it's causing more eczema. Any recommendations for other kinds of sunscreen for really sensitive skin? She's going to the dr tomorrow, so I'm going to ask about it to see if we need to do allergy testing or something.
Thanks!
Ericka

Re: Sunscreen for toddler with eczema?
I haven't tried the JASON brand yet, but so far the only type that DS can use without getting a horrible rash is Arbonne Baby sunblock. I also have some mild eczema and really sensitive skin and I use it on my face, it's the only sunblock I have used that doesn't cause my skin to burn and get red.
I also put DS in a SPF rashguard and swim trunks and always a big floppy hat, to minimize the amount of sunblock he needs.
DS's derm recommended Blue Lizard which has worked great so far!
