Non sticky sunscreen

Any recommendations for a non-sticky, quick drying, high factor (30+), broad spectrum sunscreen. Cost is not an issue - effectiveness is. I always reapply after going in water/towelling.

boots soltan have a non sticky one.

Ultrasun family factor 30. Once a day, soaks in, not greasy or sticky. Fairly pricey, but well worth it.

Biore. Although on another thread someone said it was high in alcohol content. It’s not sticky at all.

Marking place. My dermatologist recommend LaRoche stuff.

Place marking. I've just tried Asda clear sun mist which was nice and light, it's a spray can but I obviously didn't apply it very well to myself because I've burnt my back, DDs are OK though. I loved Ambre Solaire light feeling lotion but it seems to have been discontinued, I think a lotion is easier to apply than a spray (looking at greasy residue on floor).

Thanks for the Ultrasun Sport Gel recommendation - I bought some this lunchtime and tested it on my left forearm all afternoon at work. No mess, no stickiness and no greasy armprint on anything I leant on. Smile

I used mine for the 1st time this year, at the weekend. Been using it for years now. 2 year shelf life from opening which is great.

Boots soltan is good I found.
