Cheaper alternative to Elave spf 45 sunscreen?

    I've got very sensitive skin and I'm looking for a cheaper alternative to the Elave. I bought a tube this week and it cost me 23 euro for a little tube that's only the size of a tube of handcream, so it won't last long. I can't afford to be spending 23 euro a week on sunscreen and just wondered if anyone can recommend a good suncream for sensitive skin that isn't so expensive.

    I tried Ambre Solaire sensitive last year and ended up breaking out after a while. Thanks in advance:)

    Do you mean for the face? I'd get much longer than a week out of the tube! You could try Vichy mattifying fluid spf 50 or Soap & Glory spf 50- both work well under make up

    I bought the soap and glory one and really like it so far! It was on special in boots last week so ended up being about 12e I think, which I'd grand for a factor 50!
