Appropriate sunscreen for baby with ezcema Rss

Hi,
I have a 10mth old who has mild ezcema all over her body. With summer approaching I am nerveous that the standard child sunscreens may make it worse. Any suggestions on a mild brand?

Dear Simbakaya

There are quite a few ‘sensitive skin’ sunscreens available. Have a look on the hypoallergenic bar at your Pharmacy. Alternatively, UV Natural or Rosehip Oil sunscreens are available at your Health Food Store. Remember to always try products in a small area first and rinse in clear water immediately if an adverse reaction occurs.
