SPF
Hi there,
I am allergic to products containing SPF and I am finding that more and more skin care products include the SPF. I can't use anything with it in as I get a rash and hives. Will I be able to always buy products without SPF in?
Thank you
Sharon

Re: SPF
Have you visited your GP to perform a patch allergy test? You may not be allergic to all SPF?
If you are, then I should imagine that there will always be product (I assume you mean moisturisers etc.) that will not contain SPF, especially as it is known that some people are allergic to SPF. Where there is a market, there will always be a product.
