Sun cream and white tops...

Hi,

I wasn't sure where to post this, but does anyone know of a sun cream that won't make my white tops / DS's white collars etc go yellow?

Alternatively, where should I have posted this? Smile

Thanks

This IS the place but, i have no suggestions. I hate that it does that as I love white shirts/t shirts.

Watching with interest.

I use a good sun lotion, Piz Buin, but even that makes clothes yellowy.

Would hanging them out in bright sunshine work? My friend told me to hang clothes with orange stains on them (beans, spaghetti etc) out in bright sunshine and it bleaches the stain. It really works so I wonder if it would work for suncream?

I have found nothing that gets suncream stains off white tops. It is v. annoying.

Nivea invisible clear spray doesn't leave yellow marks.

Started using it after ds t shirts were ruined

Even that Vanish White stuff, does othing. Worrying really. So, you don't get sun damage but you do get chemical poisoning Confused

In a way I'm glad it's not just me that can't get the marks out - id be kinda cross of there was a simple trick I'd been missing Smile. I've tried all the stain removers / drying in the sun etc all to no avail Sad.

But I like the sound of this Nivea invisible stuff so am laying some of that in ASAP Smile. Thanks for the tip.

Am v glad they even do it in super duper SPF 50 which is what I normally use because I'm so pastey (sp? pasty? Hmm) white I normally just use the Nivea green children's spray that I have for DS! Blush
