I have also found Banana Boat baby suncream to be really good on my DDs skin - no flare ups yet.

I've found Banana Boat's Tear-Free formula for Babies (pink bottle/SPF 50) fantastic for my three's sensitive skin. Someone recommended it as one of the few tested by Paedatrician so might be worth a try? Think Boots stock it.

Try Dermatalogica.
My DD1 has a nasty reaction to any kids hypoallergenic sun cream on her face. It's literally the only one she can tolerate. It's frighteningly expensive though!

My DD develops skin rash when normal suncream is applied. I live in Ireland and I now use stuff made by La Roche-Posay available from chemists. It is especially for super sensitive skin and have had no trouble since using it since last year. Don't know if available in UK but I find it fantastic.

dd2 came up in rash yesterday at school probably from the suncream that I put on her in the morning - I used Ambre Solaire children's cream which is coloured. Her face came up in blotches and her arms were raw with eczema by the end of the day. I gave her piriton as soon as she got home, and the pharmacist advised me to not put any sun screen on until her skin has calmed down. I have sent her to school without any protection today. She has very sensitive skin and I am feeling a little sad. I have told the teaching assistant to try to keep her in the shade. I hope they do.

DD2 severe excema. Tesco kids no good. Got one called Cyclolx babies suncream factor 45- has the royal seal of approval!

I've used the Aveeno suncream on DS Jasperc. I bought it from here. It worked for ds (who has eczema) for one summer but the following summer he had a dreadful reaction to it on the first application. Now I use Sunsense.

I used Bergaderm on DS 3 summers ago, it was very good but it's agony if it gets into the eyes. DS was still quite young and inclined to rub his eyes when tired so he used to get very sore eyes.

Hi - will contribute to this thread as I've had the week from hell. Myself and my three little ones have very senstive skin, very dry, all the hayfever/eczema/various food allergies between us, but to be fair I do seem to concentrate my efforts on them and make sure they're as comfortable as possible.

This week it's been my turn and having used Bergaderm (previously called Proderm) in an effort to pre-empt my recent swelling, sore, what I thought was a prickly--heat-type reaction in the sun (without sunscreen), I did my research and ordered three bottles of the stuff for the Summer. Having liberally applied this stuff all over me (particularly on my face) on Weds 24th, I proceeded to redden, welt, pimple, ooze, and swell up like a football. I am practically unrecognizable!! I can't tell you how upset I am (this sounds sooo vain I know)....but I think not only do I react in the Sunlight but also with certain sunscreens.

Last year the problem sunscreen was Piz Buin Allergy. This time it's Bergaderm. I have a feeling it's because it's mineral based and I wanted to know whether anyone else has experienced the same kind of reaction.
Obviously people are in agreement that this sunscreen is great for sensitive skin (that's why I bought shares in it!!!) but it's been horrendous for me. I am still puffed up all over my face (my eyes are barely visible) my skin all over my face and arms and neck was red and oozing - it's now scaley and still painful and burning not to mention angry reddened and dry.

Am now embarking on the task of looking at options and disecting ingredients before I spend anymore money. Years ago, I used E45 sunblock, but do you know, I don't seem to be able to get it anywhere...and fear it has been discontinued.

Oh well, am off to see whether the sun was making an ingredient in my nivea creme react with my skin and whether that has been the starting point for my rashes this season. AggggggHHHHH!

On a happier note, I have seen a Chinese Herbal Dr, who seems confident of helping my system get to grips with my chronic allergic over-reaction (he is properly registered btw and comes highly reccommended) as the NHS Dr would only give me steroids and tell me the prognosis was to cover up, wear big hats and stay in the shade! (hmmmmm with three young children????)

What's as frustrating as anything is that I am half west indian.....my genes should be intervening in a postive 'you'll be fine in the sun' way..........!

Back to the initial enquiry....anyone had issues with Bergaderm? I would love to hear the alternative that may have worked! xx

Sorry if it has been mentioned before but where can I buy the Aveeno suncream?

Finding the Aveeno suncream very good.
