iriscruiser · March 2, 2004

( before I tan) I also seem to be allergic to some ingredient in everything I try. I even trien waterbabies hypoallergenic. My arms break out in little red spots. I have a good sun hat and glasses , but need a good sunblock. I don't want to wear long sleeves in the caribbean. Help. Please. Thanks :cry:

iriscruiser,

I wish I could help but ever since the dermatologist scared us a bit, we sit in the shade. Maybe , also, we're able to resist the sun because we live in Florida and it isn't a novelty anymore. When we lived in N.Y., we sat out in the sun with baby oil and sun reflectors. Anyway, I'm sure one of our members will help you out. :cool:

I used Coppertone Endless Summer when I went on my cruise in Februrary and I didn't burn at all. I sat in the sun everyday and I did get a nice start to my tan but no burn at all.

Hi April!

I think that I would go to the dermatologist before the cruise. He/she may have a prescription lotion that might help. The hat and sun glasses are a good idea. My mom is allergic to the sun,(she usually breaks out in red bumps) and she usually carries a small umbrella when she's in the sun for a while. I know that I wouldn't want to do that, but she also got some kind of lotion from the doctor that helped her. Good luck!
