I'm looking for info on sunscreen allergies and possibly some recommendations. I'm finding that all the regular sunscreens give both me and DH hives after a day or two of use if I'm wearing it all day for more than one day. I've searched a lot, and I am not able to determine if it's the so-called "waterproof" factor, or a specific ingredient. The better more expensive brands such as Aveeno and Neutrogena have the exact same active ingredients as Banana Boat and similar. I just picked some waterproof from Trader Joes that specifically says non- comedegentic (non pore blocking) butup here in the great white cold north I haven't had a chance to try it yet. Thoughts or comments anyone? This is kind of important as my next Caribbean trip is coming up in 10 days. :-)
