Google Fragrance Free Sunscreens

[Guest guest]

There are a multitude of products to select from. 

I use the Vanicream sunscreen as that line is totally unscented.  You probably

would not find it locally.

I have to order my Vanicream products. 

La Roche Posay also makes a great unscented one which I can get at my local

CVS.  My husband is senstive also and

he prefers the La Roche over the Vanicream.  It is also a great product but a

little more expensive.

PS have you been on an abx such as Doxycycline lately?  It can promote sun

sensitivity.  Just a thought.

With people like us, you never know.

Neutrogena sunscreen doesn't smell so bad and they have a 70 proof version.
