I use a facial one by LaRoche Posay that I get at CVS and I am wondering if it's worth a call to your ped to ask about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-lo-with-eczema-1#post-2565859 Mon, 13 Jun 2016 06:58:39 +0000 ValentineMommy 2565859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I came to say ThinkBaby, but saw that's what you're currently using. Both my boys have bad eczema, and it's the only one that doesn't bother them. While it does look chalky, they haven't gotten a burn yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-lo-with-eczema-1#post-2565823 Mon, 13 Jun 2016 01:01:37 +0000 Boogs 2565823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a super bad flare when we used this and not a single problem. <a href="https://www.burnoutsun.com/index.php?l=product_detail&#038;p=4" rel="nofollow">https://www.burnoutsun.com/index.php?l=product_detail&#038;p=4</a> We made the mistake, before putting this on, of using one that was alcohol based. Sooo painful for poor baby! This one didn't give us any problems, but we did make sure to wash off nightly and give our usual good coating of lotion. Successfully stayed sunburn free recently on an almost two week vacation. @daniellemybelle: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-lo-with-eczema-1#post-2565790 Sun, 12 Jun 2016 20:26:01 +0000 Ms. RV 2565790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have super sensitive skin and use Neutrogena Dry Touch as well.

Scared me too much to even try it. But sounds like it worked fine for you guys. </p> <p>@daniellemybelle: I know you said you are done with mineral, but we use alba botanica usually and I don't find it too hard to rub in. Much easier than the Blue Lizard I tried first- it was ok on my very fair LO but if I tried to put it on me it was obvious how white it still was. I ordered thinkbaby to try this summer but haven't used it yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-lo-with-eczema-1#post-2565648 Sat, 11 Jun 2016 23:08:48 +0000 daniellemybelle 2565648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pwnstar: @JerricaBenton: I always forget about Blue Lizard. Thanks!</p> <p>@yoursilverlining: @avivoca: Thanks for the recs!</p> <p>@youboots: I am kind of done with mineral sunscreens right now! Haha. We're using Thinkbaby which is the best of all the ones we've tried. It's still so hard to rub in, looks crazy white and I don't think it works very well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sunscreen-for-lo-with-eczema-1#post-2565634 Sat, 11 Jun 2016 22:03:18 +0000 youboots 2565634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loooove honest co sunscreen- it's mineral and easy to apply.

Chemical sunscreens flare up LO's eczema. But we've tried multiple mineral sunscreens including Vanicream and they are so hard to apply evenly and I don't think they work as well. (Consumer Reports agrees.) Not to mention the chalky cast is horrible on her lovely dark skin. We are going on a beach vacation next week and I think we need to try a "regular" sunscreen but I am so nervous about what to pick. Any suggestions from moms of kids with sensitive skin? </p>
