It's most likely the PABA that you are having a reaction to. There are non-PABA, hypoallergenic sunscreens out there; I'd try the baby section of the supermarket as products for babies tend to be the most gentle. I'm confident you'll find an appropriate product there.

They usually sell several different types, especially for people with allergies. People there are usually pretty knowledgeable. Talk to them and see what they suggest.<br><b>References : </b><br> Have you checked in your local health food store? They usually sell several different types, especially for people with allergies.
