I've always been told to put on your SPF LAST, before makeup. Moisturize first then apply SPF. 

 

Most body SPF lotions usually contain an SPF of 15. There are a few brands that are higher but from I've read about them is they tend to be heavy and somewhat tacky. Personally I prefer applying my body lotion first and then apply a sunscreen on top where it needs it, like my arms and legs.

Thanks for your suggestions.  I never can keep all that stuff straight.  Put this on, then that, then that.  Life is just not simple!  In the old days, I would slather on Jergens or something --- and boom -- I was done!

Check Beautypedia. Paula Begoun lists quite a few SPFs for the body that are 5-star rated. If I'm not mistaken, those that earn 5 stars are fragrance-free.

Thanks -- I shall do just that!

Found one that might work well for you. Meets most of your requirements. Eucerin Daily Protection Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Body Cream. It has some chemicals, but no parabens or fragrance

 

Another option is Alba Botanica's Very Emollient Daily Shade Lotion SPF 15. Less chemicals, and no parabens but it has fragrance. And Aveeno's Daily Moisturizing Lotion SPF 15 sounds nice. No fragrance, but it has Methylparaben.


@Porcelain

 

Aren't you so kind to list these?  I appreciate it very much!!!!!

Re: Need a fragrance-free body lotion or cream with SPF

Thanks, everyone for your nice replies!  I wish my derm. would just say -- you can use this product or that one, or you must use this product or that one.  As I have mentioned before, the only product he loves for skin is Cerave!  That's it!  If I question him further -- he says --- stick with Cerave -- you can't go wrong!  I don't want to get another derm. because he is good and helps me with my issues a lot!  We have been together for over 30 years!  LOL.  Longer than a lot of marriages!!!
