This formula is great for sensitive skin, right?
  • I've got pretty sensitive skin. I found a product from a local healthstore which sells this pretty nifty looking sunscreen, and I wondered if you'd comment on its ingredients. From what I can see, it's ideal and based on what I've learnt, nothing in this should irritate anyone's skin.

    Here are the ingredients:
    Active: 260 mg/g Zinc Oxide
    Capric/caprylic triglyceride (plant oil derived), Rose hip oil, Grapeseed oil, Sesame seed oil, Shea butter, Vegetable oil, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Phenoxythanol.

    That's it.
    Ta in advance
  • I have wickedly sensitive skin as well and from my experience, sesame seed oil has instigated a huge rosacea flare up. Go figure. I have no idea why, but I simply can not tolerate sesame seed oil on my face (though it is fine, actually quite nice, on my body). Everyone is different, but I have some trouble with some seed/nut oils.

    Good luck!
