Does baby oil protect your head from the sun
« on: April 16, 2011, 10:55:08 PM »
i've been using baby oil on my head and i noticed that wen i used it, i don't breakout as bad. maybe i'm seeing things but i've noticed super little tiny spots on my head that i never seen b4. so does the babyoil does the ultimate justice, or do i need to use other products. if so what?

p.s: i'm a black male  ;D

I use HeadLube SPF 30 or sometimes Banana Boat sunscreen SPF 30 or SPF 45.

Most CVS and RiteAid stores carry Headblade products.  You can also buy them online:

Most sunscreens run when you start to perspire.  I use the Banana Boat sport when I know I'm going to be out in intense heat for extended periods of time.  "Sports" formula sunscreens are thicker and not as likely to run.  All of them leave a white residue on the skin, though.  It's not really an issue for me but I suppose it would show up more on darker skin.

All baby oil will do is to baste your head as it cooks.   O:O

The HeadLube glossy doesn't offer any protection against the sun.  You can probably get away with a lower SPF factor than us white boys can because darker skin takes longer to burn.  Have you tried an SPF 15?  That might not leave as much of a white film on your scalp.
