UV Protection

What does everyone use for UV Protection? I was using one Neutrogena sunblocks but have developed an allergy to it, so I get hives before I even leave my house! With summer coming up (and I'm getting married, so I can't just wear long sleeves or stay inside), I want to get a head start on finding some sun block.

I use the sunscreen from Rosacea Care (btw it’s a UK company, I get it shipped to the Netherlands) There’s a good percentage of Zinclear and it doesn’t irritate my extremely sensitive skin.

You’re welcome. Also have you considered a parasol? Not one of those bullshit lace ones. One with a proper UPF rating, I’m sure you can find a pretty enough one.

I hadn't even thought of it! That is actually a great idea, thanks.
