Finally a sun cream that doesn’t react with my skin

I’ve seen many threads on here about people with sensitive skin struggling to find a sun cream that doesn’t sting or cause eczema/breakouts/itching etc. I’ve probably posted on a few too about my lifetime search for one.

My consultant dermatologist recommended Altruist (bought on Amazon) and its really, really good. I wish someone had told me about it years ago so man sharing here.
It isn’t thick or clogging and sinks in, feels comfortable, no stinging. And its relatively cheap.

I’d tried Eucerin (best of the bunch but still caused eczema) and La Roche Posay (terrible breakouts) and any number of ‘natural’ sun creams but always with the same itchy red skin result.

Altruist sunscreen is so greasy on my face. I’ve even bought the one specific for the face as well. On my body it’s fine.

I do have very dry skin, including on my face.
