you can get some from chemist, my son is very fair skinned and when he was born ( middle of july 2003) i got some prescription suncream from the health visitor, it was for highly sensitive and delicate skin. ask your doctor or practice nurse they may be able to helpMy son has really sensitive skin and child sun cream is making his skin really itchy and sore?
Ask at the pharmacy for a hypoallergenic sun screen. What you get will depend on which country you are in. Get one that goes on as a spray rather than as a cream or an oil.





The soreness and itching may also be due to heat rash, insect bites or another allergy rather than reaction to the sun cream of course.
Hi, my daughter is 10 and has the same problem. She comes out in a rash with ordinary children's suncream. Last year I used Nivea factor 50+ for babies and very sensitive skin and she was OK with that. Good luck
Garnier Ambre Solaire make a sensitive factor 40 lotion, you could ask your local Pharmacists advice. There are sensitive fragrance free sun lotions for kids. Itchy and sore skin is still better than sunburn/skin cancer.
Just wanted to add...try to find a physical sun block rather than a chemical one- I have senstitive skin and I cant use chemical blocks- they do make you a bit pale looking but better than burning or a rash!
At such a tender age he should see a doctor,that will prescribe some thing that will not aggrivate his sensitive skin. He could be allergic to the sun let alone the creams that are being applied.
Boots Soltan for sensitive skin. A good factor 20 should be fine, unless he's really young in which case 30 along with some lip protection should be fine
it could be prickly heat but i would contact your doctor as it also sounds like a lanolin allergy which is an ingredient in sun cream boots stock lanolin free sun cream
aveeno is really gentle and made for the youngsters
