Does baby oil protect your head from the sun by blackbaldman19 on 16 Apr, 2011 22:55

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

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.

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.
