Poikiloderma of Civatte - which SPF do you use?

5 replies

If you have Poikiloderma of Civatte, are there any specific brands of SPF cream you'd recommend? What about day to day care?

I admit that I had to google it. I think you need to get the highest protection you can. Usually this means SPF50 and a UVA rating of 5 stars.

The following are all recommended by Which?

Nivea Sun Protect & Moisture Lotion SPF30
Garnier Ambre Solaire Sensitive Advanced Sun Spray SPF 50+
Boots Soltan Protect & Moisturise Spray SPF30
Sainsbury's Sun Protect Moisturising Spray Lotion SPF50+
Superdrug Solait Sun Spray SPF30

I don’t have that condition, but I use this https://www.boots.com/beauty-of-joseon-relief-sun--rice-and-probiotics-50ml-10348088.
I use it daily and even in 40c tropical sun, I never burn with it on.

For my face, Ultrasun or La roche posay both spf50. Can be used under make up. I use it 365 days of the year if I'm outside.
