I don't know what SPF is made of or whatever, but I think my skin doesn't like it. I've been wearing a light moisturizer everyday with a little SPF in it (only like 15) and lately it stings my skin. I've never had a problem w/ any moisturizer except those w/ SPF in them and I'm wondering if I could be sensitive to the sunscreen part. Is that possible? If so, how can I prevent that sensitivity, I WANT to protect my skin on a daily basis, even if it's just a little bit.

. Not all of it, but the ingredient Oxybenzone. That stuff is used in a lot of sunscreens. I guess it was found to potentially lead to free-radical damage of the skin and even skin cancer. Sort of fucked up, since it's supposed to be protecting against that.
