SPF for sensitive eye area

Anyone got good recommendations for a facial SPF that doesn’t irritate the skin around the eyes?

I normally use LRP or Ultrasun but just fancy a change. Tried a Gruum on last weekend and only just managed to settle my skin today.

I’ve just started using Tocobo watery sunscreen spf 50 and I’m really happy with it.
I actually bought a sample off eBay for, iirc, under £3 so I could try it before committing to buying the full size, as I’m fed up with wasting money on ones that don’t suit, cause pilling under makeup, cause my eyes to sting etc.

"Mineral SPF with micronized zinc oxide" sits on the skin rather than absorbing into it which reduces the stinging/irritation that chemical filters can cause near the eyes. Fragrance-free & alcohol-free are non-negotiable! A lighter fluid texture also helps.

I just tried the garnier facial one and halleluja it doesn't sting (even when sweating) and doesn't leave a greasy film.
