    Default Need a SPF moisturizer for daily use/paraben free

    So in my quest to be kinder to my skin I figure I will start using a daily spf moisturizer, but I want to avoid parabens and most of the one's I've checked out have them...Cerave, Neutrogena, Olay.....

    I also cannot afford to spend an arm and a leg.

    Suggestions?

    Based on the previous thread I bought Yes to Carrots daily moisturizer. I have very acne prone skin and it hasn't caused any problems that I can tell. I have also used cetaphil but I think it might have parabens

    Only the yes products don't contain parabens, I'm approaching menopause and want to avoid anything that messes with hormones and estrogen...

    Will keep looking, can I also say how I hate the small print on packaging that you have to read to see ingredients, I wear contacts for distance and its nearly impossible to read those packages!

    Have you looked at Devita? I think they are paraben free. I use to used them but switched this year to get a higher level sunscreen. I think they are Spf 30.

    I use olay spf 15 for sensitive skin, and that does not appear to have parabens:

    It's currently on sale at costco.
