Now that the it's been bright and sunny here in the midwest and we've spent many days in a row by the pool, I'm even more convinced! Just by simply applying this Shirudo lotion, as you would any other lotion, my skin feels nice and silky - and 'calm' I guess you would say. I never thought of myself as having sensitive skin (except for this sun allergy!) but I still find this lotion to be soothing.
I've been applying it right before putting on my bathingsuit (it's just easier not to miss any small areas that way) and then spraying on my favorite Banana Boat Dry Oil SPF once I'm outside. IF I spend more than an hour or two in the sun, or if I get wet in the pool, I go ahead and apply more of the Shirudo to my especially sensitive areas (neck, stomach, upper arms) and re-apply the sunscreen.
So far, not even a hint of the itchiness or red bumps. My chest and stomach were a little red after last Wednesday's pool time (typically a little sunburn would speed up the process of the PMLE developing) and still no symptoms!
I will point out we are spending 2 weeks at the beach in Southern California in July, and I will certainly be reporting back after that. I consider that the 'big challenge' as beach conditions typically aggravate and speed up the PMLE for me personally!
