Sunscreen/Sunblock ... how much SPF?

Re: Sunscreen/Sunblock ... how much SPF?

I'm having a problem with my son's sunblock/sunscreen for his face. Basically, it isn't suiting him at all, which is really disappointing cause it's Aveeno brand especially for babies. On the rest of his body, it's fine, but it's just his face that causes a reaction.

What other ones can I try out? You know, I am tempted not to put anything on him at all other than a big floppy hat to keep his face covered. The skin on his face is super delicate.

i have really sensitive skin…it gets itchy and red in the sun..the best protection i have had is with neutrogena spf 70..now they have one for babies!

Mehnaz, this is what I use on my babies, and its great. My younger son has extremely sensitive skin, and this doesnt seem to affect him negatively.

I never leave home without SB or SC, doesn't matter rain, snow, sun. There is some controversy over the ingredinets used in SB/SCs but I rather die knowing I protected myself than die from skin cancer, espif yuo are in higher altitudes your skin can burn in very ealsiy without proper protection.
