Hi everyone,

Brodie has now had two allergic breakouts to sunscreen. I bought a Banana Boat kids product and he ended up with a rash wherever it was sprayed. Then we still had some Coppertone kids sunscreen left from last year, which didn’t give him a rash. We used it the other day, and Saturday morning he had a good rash all over the back of his neck. I don’t know what to buy now! Does anyone have any suggestions, or any idea what might be causing the reaction? It’s so strange, how the Coppertone we used last year with no problem, but this year it’s bothering him! Thanks in advance.

coppertone scored as one the highest for hazardous on the cosmetic safety database.

here is a good thread on safe sunscreens

We love Aveeno Baby sunscreen (the continuous spray one is great!). Addy has VERY sensitive skin and we use all their products and never have had a problem. Every other normal baby brand bothered her skin. addysmommy2007-5-27 14:28:14

I just ordered California baby from ebay for $17.99 w. free shipping. Hopefully it will be the trick! Thanks for that link Natalia, I had no idea how harmful most common brand sunscreens are. It really is disgusting!
