Sun Screen was created by Edgesport
What do people use for Sun Screen? I've tried many but the results are always bad. Recently tried a sunblock stick but it was like bringing a knife to a gun fight and I'm gonna loose a few layers of skin off my face in the next week. I can sweat quite a lot from my head so most screens get washed away with the moisture.Â

Bullfrog brand sport formulations, mainly because I don't mind the way they smell, so I tend to use them more often. One application for normal days, maybe reapplied if I'm out sunrise to sunset--and I sweat copiously.
Plus a ball cap with bandana keffiyeh, and any reasonably-flavored lip stuff.

Just cover up with lightweight, light colored breathable clothing is the easiest thing to do. Hat, glasses, lightweight buff and long sleeves. Some spf 30 and lip balm to augment the facial areas. Way easier than trying to constantly rub expensive chemicals and then sweat that into your eyes!

I've been happy with the performance of the coppertone sport spf 50 or its generic rite aid equivalent. I've used it skiing and surfing and finds that for me it handles sweat / water the best, i.e. not washing off or running into the eyes. Avoid banana boat at all costs.

I'm in this camp - lightweight, light-colored clothing is much nicer than runny chemicals on the skin. I like to wear a thin polyester hoody and a ball cap for spring skiing under the sun, with just a little sunscreen for the nose/face. If the weather becomes cold or windy, then it is easy to throw a down or shell on top.
