The cure for sun rash

Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2016

I have struggled with prickly heat since my 20's. Before that I baked in the sun (probably way too much) and never had an issue. Then suddenly this itchy rash started as soon as I layed out and got even a little pink. Well I've just spend two weeks in over 40 degree weather on a beach vacation and using this lotion, it's the first time I haven't gotten the rash. I started with 50 spf and then gradually moved down to 30. I got a golden tan but never a burn and therefore the rash never came. I love the slightly fragrant smell, I love that it seems to hydrate my skin, and also that it lasts for hours even when I'm in and out of the water. For rash sufferers, another couple tips I can give is showering before and after sun exposure using an antibacterial soap (like Dettol) before applying the sunscreen. It prevents bacteria from forming on the skin. Also lightly using an exfoliating glove and buffing your skin of dead cells. And most important to never ever use "waterproof" sunscreen. It's the culprit for me as it sits like glue on my skin and clogs my pores and keeps irritating the rash.

Love this, highly recommend it, have used for 25+ years. Years of fun in the sun, no problem but suddenly, one year, after an hour on my favorite beach-my skin got bumpy, blistered. Barely tan, not sunburnt...but I was miserable. Friends said "Get Piz Buin."
Wow, I was never a fan of sun lotions or oils but I love & trust this product. Light, non greasy & the remaining 3 weeks of vacay good once I started using it. It does nothing for any pain, blisters from a sun allergy but it saved me. I could go out & about, again, be in the sun a bit & no further problems, outbreaks. A bit of a bother, could not find Piz Buin /allergy in the USA. Hey was the 90's, pre Amazon era..
My last bottle spurted its last in 2012. A good run considering it was bought in 2004. I never looked for an expiry date.. But to the end, yes,
it worked. Is a little pricey but very well worth it.

Last time we went to Hawaii, our daughter was miserable with prickly heat. Nothing helped. A week before our current trip a friend told us about this product and we are so glad she did. We ordered a bottle and paid for expedited shipping and boy did they. I think it was on the way less than 12 hours later. The sellers had great communication and took Paypal which made it easy to deal in euros.
We've been on the island five days now using the product religiously and so far so good. No prickly heat, no burns, no problem. Lotion goes on easy, is scent free and doesn't leave white streaks. If it keeps on working like this we'll be ordering more soon.

Gosh I wish I could get this in the states. It’s so expensive to order. But now that I’m sensitive to zinc andnither brands don’t work for me, I am happy to have found this. I have the 1 day version and mountain version too (which I got in Austria). Please someone sell it here! I guess it’s less than a plan ticket. lol

If you suffer from a sun rash, you need this!

I've suffered with polymorphic light eruptions from sun exposure for years. This product has finally given me the ability to go out and enjoy summers. No more stinging. No more weeks of itching after exposure. I cannot sing its praises enough.

If you are sensitive to smells, there is a light fragrance somewhere between sunscreen and a cologne with this, but I'll put up with it for the trade off.

I’ve been breaking out in itchy rashes from the sun since I was 12 years old....that’s 17 years of suffering. I bought this for a cruise and for the first time since I was a child, I was able to enjoy the sun without the uncomfortable rashes. I cannot express how happy I am about this sunblock! I highly recommend!
