Skincare for teenage boy - SPF

DS1 isn't particularly into skincare but I wonder if it's worth trying to get him into good habits.

Any recommendations for a moisturiser/SPF that a 16 year old won't roll his eyes at?

Backdrop here - my mother never user a cleanser, moisturiser or makeup in her life, i wasn't a girly girly, but I do think a good SPF routine makes sense

I know Paula's Choice does a basic men's range - really any good SPF will do, but something less conspicuous will be a bit less embarrassing for him to have on the shelf, also it says shine free formula so won't leave a white cast on his face.

DH uses Lumin skincare for men, it's quite pricey but works really well for his combination (sometimes oily or dry depending on the weather) skin. They do a UV defence moisturiser which he uses in the day and a basic one for at night. His skin looks much better than it did a few months ago and it's all in manly black packaging so doesn't look feminine. You can do a free trial to see if it works for you which is what he did at first.
