Suncream That Doesn’t Stain!!

Does anyone know any suncream that doesn’t stain children's clothes? I’ve just had to throw away 5 children’s white school shirts that have yellow suncream stains around the neck and sleeves - tried every hack, fairy liquid, soaking and scrubbing with Oxi Action etc and nothing shifts it!

Calypso the Australian version apparently doesn’t stain.

when applying suncream, apply before getting dressed, this makes it easier to not get it on clothing

I haven't found one, and I have tried creams, non-greasy gels, even sprays, applying it all half an hour before he gets dressed, you name it. I can only think he sweats it into the neck, and now I just resign myself to increasingly yellow collars and replacing the white polos at the end of summer term.

I will say, you can't really see it when he's wearing them.

Ultrasun has been fine for my whites. Except I suspect the clear sports spf 50 to have stained a top this spring ( haven't used that one before)

Uktrasun all day factor 30 or 50 don't stain...expensive but great suncream.
