To ask for a child suncream recommendation

Sun sense factor 50 and ultrasun for kids

Both seem to result in my childrens skin getting little raised eczema like dots all over. I know factor 50 cant be natural but any recommended creams for children that are "gentle"

Can I tag on please - any recommendations specifically that doesn't sting eyes! My LO ends up with bright red bloodshot eyes as the cream inevitably ends up in his eyes from sweat or water play. His skin tolerates it but his poor eyes I can't stand it!

I think it's trial and error. I am sunscreen allergic and have to use mineral. Hawaiian Tropic have just brought out a mineral one and it's lovely. Green people also good (doesn't smell so nice, mind!)

My eczema prone DS gets on with spray Soltan for kids or child's farm. Nivea or Amber Solaire gives him the prickly heat rash.

La Roche posey is very gentle on sensitive skin. My daughter is allergic to most sun creams but seems to be fine with this one.
