Allergic?

Over the weekend we had an outside birthday party to go to so I put sunscreen on Josh that morning and afternoon. I didn't think anything of his face being red because I just figured he was hot. It was about 85* and he was running around playing. Well yesterday I put some more on him just in case my sister brought him outside (again it was 85*). Well his face is all puffy, splotchy, and red. He also has red bumps all over his belly and back! I had to end up calling the Pediatrician to see if I should give him Benadryl. My poor baby was all red, hot, and puffy!! It is basically all cleared up now! Any suggestions on a good, sensitive skin sunscreen for kids??

Hey Rach!! Both of the girls are REALLY sensitive to sunscreens and lotions and have had allergic reactions. The only one that works for them is Blue Lizard - either the Sensitive Skin kind or Baby. It is expensive but I can't use any other kind on them. Goes on super thick!
