Sun cream for sensitive skin

Hi, my LO is 18 months old, very fair skinned and has sensitive skin. I have tried all sorts of different sun creams including Green People, but they all seem to bring her out in a rash, especially on her face, and make her red etc. Any advice on creams for highly sensitive skin?
TIA

E45 used to do one if you can find it.
Otherwise piz buin allergy. Although I found that really stung my eyes if it got in them.

I bought this in america for my 1 year old who has eczema. It is amazing and didn't cause us any flare ups.

However, suncream is sadly a bit of a trial and error thing ime.

Thanks! Tried E45 and that didn't work for her either!

Ultra sun or sunsense, my pale ginger boy reacts to lots of creams on his face but is OK with these.

Ultrasun sensitive works well.

Another vote for ultrasun. Great stuff.
