So, I've been using Neutrogena Sensitive Skin sunblock on and off for a few years now. It's a physical sunblock (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide). I use it on my arms, legs, etc. for everyday use when I don't need anything sweatproof. I bought it because I tend to have problems with contact dermatitis and it's specfically for sensitive skin.
And this weekend I found that I've developed an allergy to it. I only had a bit of a rash on my arms, but they were itching really badly.
However the Eucerin face lotion/sunblock that I use has the same active ingredients, which means one or more of the inactive ingredients in the Neutrogena is causing the problem.
This means I'm in the market for a new sunscreen for everyday use. I've already tried Aveeno moisturizer with sunscreen and the Eucerin lotion with sunscreen that's not specifically for faces, but both are a bit too sticky.
Knock wood, I have not had any problems with the Neutrogena Sport stuff.
