Natural products close by?

My DD has chemical sensitivities and is unable to wear sunscreen that contains chemicals. Is there a store close to WDW that we can purchase some? We will bring some from home but will likely need more by the end of the first week. Something within a half hour drive would be fine.

Are you buying them at stores that have locations in the Orlando area? Also, if you look up the Brand Name of the product you use, sometimes they have listings on their webpage of stores that carry their products.

Smart advice! I was able to locate a store called CVS that carries it. Thanks

You can all ways send some from home as some story's carry things other will not this way you know you have it.

I agree with the above suggestion to ship some, if possible. CVS is a chain of drug stores. In my experience when trying to locate a specific product, often a chain will be listed as carrying a brand -- but any given location of that may not stock the specific product you want. If this is a popular sunscreen brand, the CVS located near WDW may very well stock it but I'd hate for you to expect it there and not be available. If shipping some isn't possible, you might try calling that CVS location shortly to confirm they stock the product you need.

Enjoy your vacation!

What sunscreen do you use if it is a Popular one they may have it

Goddess garden is one that we have used before but any product that is chemical free should do the trick. Most natural food or health stores carry chemical free sunscreens.

Containers of sunscreen are not very large. I would just stick a couple of extra containers in my suitcase.

Is there a Costco near Disneyworld? And I suppose you would need to be a Costco member. They now carry Honest company sunscreen.

I have a specific brand of sunscreen I can use, I always bring what I think I will need plus an extra container of it.

An option is if a store online sells your preferred brand (e.g. drugstore.com or amazon) is to order it online and have it shipped to the resort. We have had to do this mid-trip when a need arose (thankfully I have Amazon Prime, so for $3.99 got the needed item the next day; but have also ordered from Amazon, drugstore.com and ebags with 2 day delivery, mid-stay). We have also done the order pre-trip and had the box waiting for us when we arrived.

Finally, Orlando does have a Whole Foods that I believe is within the driving distance you are looking for. You can call or write them to verify they carry what you want; it may even be possible for them to hold an item for you to pick up.

I know if you're staying on property you can always just ship it to the resort you're staying at. This way you don't have to run around and get it. You can just ship it from home. I have done it a couple of times. I shipped them about two weeks before I went down and they will hold the package for you. Just ask for it at check in.
