Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer SPF 15

Though it is not completely free of irritants, reviewers say Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer SPF 15 is full of ingredients to reduce redness and soothe irritation, such as feverfew, oatmeal and soy. Paula Begoun warns, though, that feverfew might actually be more irritating than soothing, but it might not cause problems in small amounts. Critics love the lotion's broad-spectrum UV protection, but they wish Aveeno would replace avobenzone with titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, both of which provide gentler sun protection. Specialists are also displeased with Aveeno's inclusion of fragrance, a known irritant. Despite these potential problems, though, few consumers at MakeupAlley.com and Drugstore.com complain of irritation. If you don't have sensitive skin, we found the best reviews overall for Olay Regenerist UV Defense Regenerating Lotion SPF 15 (*est. $19 for 2.5 oz.).
