Sunscreen- non-greasy instant sink-in spray?

My o/h is bald. He is in and out of doors all day and rarely thinks to put on a hat. He doesn't use sun cream but if I could get a non-greasy one that he could just quickly spray on his head in the morning I think he might try.
It needs to be transparent and non greasy so as not to affect the little hair he has!
Any ideas gratefully received!

Ultrasun sports gel - non-sticky, non-greasy, absorbs v quickly, and lasts all day.

Great, thank you very much

Butting in to enquire, is the Ultrasun ok to use on the face?
I'm very shiny of face during the summer months and all sunscreens make it worse. Need something non-greasy or mattifying.

The Ambre Solaire aerosols are clear and sink in quickly.

Yes have used the ultrasun on face and havent notified matifying, but def not greasy

Soltan invisible might do the job.

It soaks in very quickly, in fact I've decided not to use it any more because when I'm applying it, it's not obvious which bits I've done and which I'm still to do!

I use amber solair dry oil. I just can't use milk ones. Malibu does a decent budget dry oil too.

Considering soltan next though as I've heard good things.

I love the Malibu one both factor 30 and 50. And I think £3.99.

Shinyandnew1 · 07/06/2015 15:21

Patterkiller-can I ask where you buy the Malibu spray from for £3.99?

Kaspar19 · 07/06/2015 16:41

I use p20 which isn't instantly dry, but after about 20mins it is and you wouldn't know you had anything on. It was originally designed for balding heads :-)

Calypso dry oil spray, £2.99 from home bargains. Best sunscreen I have ever used.
