sunscreen for kids with eczema?
My DD and DS have very sensitive skin, and DD gets eczema flare ups when we put sunscreen on her. We have tried water babies and a natural one - can't remember the name though.
Anyone have a recommendation for a sunscreen for kids with eczema?
The dermatologist recommended Blue Lizard. Anyone have any experience with this one, or know where I can find it? (I see walgreens has it online only and I would rather buy in store).
TIA!
ETA: If you have a sunscreen you like, please include where you buy it if you don't mind

Ds1 has eczema and sensitive skin. The only one that he can use is Blue Lizard sensitive. I usually buy a couple bottles from drugstore.com each spring and that lasts us till next spring.

The only thing that has worked for DD is blue lizard. It's expensive. I went thru almost three bottles this summer. It's thick. But it works great.

Re: sunscreen for kids with eczema?
Stay far away from Aveeno. It friggen says for kids with eczema on the bottle so we bought it two years ago and what a big mistake. My poor son who has horrible eczema had a bright red face. It was the worst outbreak he had ever had. I asked about it on here and a lot of other moms had the same issue. We use the badger stick on his face and the badger lotion on his body.

Re: sunscreen for kids with eczema?
I like Blue Lizard also but you can also try Vanicream...You can buy both at drugstore.com. I have bought Blue Lizard at Wegmans though (not sure that is by you)
