I kill 2 birds with one stone and use the Bullfrog Mosquito Coast.
Works great even with no-see-ums.

the coppertone spray on aerosol is awesome. spf 30. keep it out of your eyes. you can get complete coverage in like 3 seconds. like spray painting. works upside down for your back too.

I usr the Coppertone spray on as well. I really hate the mess with the bottles. The spray on is easy to use and not as messy so I tend to use it more consistantly, and its water resistant. Always wear a big hat too.

Coppertone SPF50. As bottled sunscreens go, it's about the least greasy type I've used. I haven't had a sunburn in years.

Bullfrog spray.

Doesn't clog your pores and make you overheat.

I use the No-Ad SPF 60, it is pretty cheap. lasts all day and keeps my pasty faced ass, whiter than white.

If I can find it, Lil Gator 40. This comes from my surfing days. It doesn't wash or rub off in water (doesn't rub off on a surfboard). It's also the best sun block I've found and it's good for sensitive skin (Scotch Irish heritage). The only place (on this coast), I know of that carries it is Suncoast Surf Shop on T.I. If I can't find Lil Gator then it's Bull Frog Surfer formula. Works well, It's not as complete of a sun block though. Still if you're going to get wet, it's better than most anything else I've tried.

I have never used sunblock in my entire life. Never had a sunburn in my entire life either.....Possibly the Native American in me, dont know for sure, but I have baked in the sun hours upon hours on the water and never once got burned.

Until the end, thats where we begin :wink: . I'm just here making the best out of my time here on this overcrowded planet filled with moral decay. Waiting for the big man to take me home. Weather it be five minutes from now or 90 years from now, it wont bother me. Everybody has their time no matter how much they try to avoid it.

I use the Coppertone Sport SPF50. It works really well and isn't as greasy as some others I have tried. Also wear a wide brimmed hat and use Hawaiin Tropic SPF45 lip balm.
