What I found works wonderfully is Neutrogena's Norwegian Formula body lotion. As soon as the heat comes on in November (or the short sleeves and shorts are finished), I start wearing it. I'm now finishing my last bottle and will be moving to my summer lotion: Lubriderm w/SPF. Clarins is great. I hope you also enjoy it! I also used to suffer from eczema.

I'm going to buy the largest bottle of Clarins I can find. I've been searching for a decent sunscreen for years now (I too, have oily, sensitive, and combination skin. I get hit by it all), and am very paranoid about my sunscreen. So far, I've only been using Vichy's Thermal Fix with SPF 20, but I want a higher SPF, maybe 30 for my face. And all of my foundations now have SPF in them too... can't get enough! Also, I've started a regime where I take a shower at night, and moisturize really well with Olay Quench Therapy Concentrate (I am prone to eczema), and then in the mornings I slather on the body sunscreen (like Christie's Lubriderm, or the drugstore brand with SPF 60), let it bond to my skin, and finish my makeup in the meantime.

It is expensive for its size, but it doesn't make your face feel oily, and I have oily, yet sensitive skin (which, by the way, is hard to find products for, since most brands assume sensitive = dry--silly them!). It is too expensive for me to put on my hands, but I have another solution that I have used for years--body lotion with sunscreen in it. My favorite is Lubriderm with SPF 15. It is inexpensive, and it gives you full body coverage. I highly recommend it for good, all-over, daily coverage. I was turned onto Clarins by Angie, and I agree with her that the product is great.
