and as though its clogging every pore. oh it also needs to be factor 30 plus and not cost a small fortune. I hate using the stuff at the moment but I dont fancy the sunburn either so if anyone knows of one do tell. tia

Piz Buin Oil Free - it's brilliant, dries in straight away, doesn't leave any residue and doesn't stain, doesn't smell. It's fantastic

Oh and just to say, a friend of mine tried the Nivea oil free one on holiday and it was rubbish, it wasn't oily, but it was sticky/tacky. I also had Avons oil free and it was the same, left a sticky feeling but it wasn't oily IYSWIM.

Can defo recommend the Piz Buin.

A friend just recommended me Sun Sense - it's Australian and you have to order it online but it is £6 for a small roll-on bottle (which is a bit more expensive than sun cream here but not too bad considering it's non sticky and all SPF30+)

Forever Living soaks into the skin straight away.

I use Sunsense tinted facial sunblock for me and the roll-on for DS. The one I use is fab, it goes on matte and is perfect under makeup. I find that I don't feel that it's on at all and it doesn't lift off and slide down my face if I get sweaty.

Sunsense also do a sport gel sunscreen which I don't like as it stays 'wet' once applied. It probably looks great on bronzed muscley surfer dudes, but it makes me look like I have the flu/plague/black death.

Thanks everyone I should be able to find something out of that lot sunsense looks good but maybe not the gel lol

The Piz Buin cooling spray is brilliant, factor 30, smells fab and goes on really well. £8 in Matalan!
