Re: suncreams overloading skin...suggestions for products?

[Guest guest]

I use Oil of Olay Complete Daily UV Protection Moisturizing Lotion (fragrance

and colour free version). It has SPF 15 (zinc oxide). It's not heavy and it

doesn't irritate my skin. It's worth a try.

need a sunblock which has non-chemical spf (only zinc or titanium dioxide is

good) - which is not really heavy. Every one I get seems to be too rich for my

skin and actually seems to make my otherwise normal rosacea very dry as if it is

too rich and heavy that it is sending my skin into an irritable state. Can any

one suggest a non-chemical block which is gentle, has few botanical ingredients

if any and won't overload my skin, ie...is actaully designed for the face( you

know that gunky, can never rub in thing, that's what I want to avoid). Please

help.

Of course working in a very dry atmosphere doesn't help...my dry work

environment is my worst trigger...any solutions for that any one? I work with

kids so have to be careful with appliances etc...and my class window open about

an inch each!!!

I've been using " Natural Sunblock, " spf 30, or something like that

from skinrxclinic.com I went there to look up Ti-Silc, where it

said if you need Oil-free, scroll down to their natural sunblock

product. Contains zinc & titanium dioxide, available tinted &

untinted, not a lot of ingredients. It's not as heavy as ZincO,

which I can't use in the summer. It is kind of sticky, and if I use

too much or don't wash it off well at night, I get little pimples. I

use just a tiny amount and so far it's working really well. They

also have a rosacea page and I ordered a sample pack of some

products. I haven't really tested them yet because my face just went

nuts from a bunch of other things and I'm waiting for it to calm down

a little.
