Sunscreen for sensitive skin - PABA free

love22 · June 2011

M has gotten such sensitive skin as he's gotten older. I'm allergic to PABA. I'm looking for a sunscreen that both of us can use that won't give either of us a rash. What do you recommend?

We've been using Badger for Ellie. And they are PABA free...

from the FAQ on their site:

Do Badger sunscreens contain PABA?

No. The active ingredient in our sunscreens is uncoated, non-nano zinc oxide which is very gentle and non-irritating. We would not use an ingredient like PABA in our natural and organic sunscreens.

I'm pretty sure Burnout is and right now it's on sale at Whole Foods for 12.99 ($5 off)

I'm allergic to PABA too and haven't seen it in awhile in any sunscreens. We use Badger and TJ's new spray sunscreen.

we LOVE burnout - and it was highly rec'd by our derm as it has zinc oxide. if it is on sale at whole foods i would totally take advantage of that because that stuff is not cheap!

Burnout for Kids/Sensitive Skin.

It's GREAT! I like the application much better than California Baby Sensitive Sunscreen, and it works very well for sun protection. It's sold at Whole Foods and you can always return it if it doesn't work out for you.
