Very gentle SPF for dermatitis

3 replies

I'm experiencing a really nasty outbreak of dermatitis, and even my beloved La Roche Posay Anthelios is making my skin react badly. Can anyone recommend an incredibly gentle SPF that won't my skin react or break out?

I don’t think its possible for anyone on here to say what your skin will tolerate, particularly if you have bad dermatitis. You have my utmost sympathy though.

Are you seeing a dermatologist? If not is that a possibility?

Thank you @OooScotland , its been absolutely rotten! I've got a very understanding GP, who takes it seriously thank goodness, so I'm on currently on antibiotics and antihistamines. But if things don't improve a visit to a dermatologist sounds like a good shout, thank you.

@WellieBootsBlue It may be worth you looking at mineral only based sun screens. These are much more gentle on the skin as they sit on the surface of the skin and reflect the sun's rays away like little mirror particles. Hope things improve soon for you OP 😀
