| I have been using the Kimberly Sayer SPF 25 face cream and it doesnt break me out, only small few tiny pimples that I can get rid of easily. But it has lavender in it and that concerns me cos of the phytotoxic reaction. And I think its drying my face out too. I thought of adding an EO to balance it out as I have about half left but meanwhile has anyone used a cream that is similar but without the lavender? TIA. |

I've been looking at the Kimberly Sayer SPF's just now as my old favorite natural sunscreen is no longer on sale. This looks pretty good. I would like it to be a bit of a higher spf though. I checked the ingredients for the Ultra Light Facial Moisturiser and I didn't see any Lavender in that, although it does have lemon oil which is also sun sensitizing for some people.

I might give it a whirl anyway as it has very good reviews and is good value for money. |

| I am using the Daily Moisturizing one and it has lavender in the middle of the list. I don't find it very heavy but I do have dryish skin. It is a great product for the price and how it sinks into my skin but I am getting a bit dry with it. |

| How about the Pratima Neem sunscreen as a substitute. |
