We used Sunsense Sensitive last year no problem. But this year he's allergic to it.

Im not sure what to try next and its going to be an expensive experiment.

I dont want to try Soltan.

Hes also allergic to Aveeno, E45, Oilatum Ugenthum (or however you spell it) diprobase, double base.

So creams are an huge issue. I cant figure out the common denominator either which is a bit if a bugger.

My DD and i use Clinique factor 40.

I'm allergic to parfum, zinc and plant oils. My DD hasn't been tested but is now showing a similar reaction to zinc (even though last year she was ok with Nivea kids) and was allergic to diprobase when she was a toddler.

It's the only one that works for us at the moment but it has been very much trial & error.
