Any recommendations for a good non-drip, non-sting sunblock? Using Factor 50 spray/cream at the moment but it doesn't last.

Eventually found this lot on eBay. Good selection including lots of colour options if you want to play Cowboys and Indians post-match.

INVISIBLE ZINC is a physical sunscreen range that contains Zinc Oxide as the only active ingredient, providing a barrier to reflectharmful UVA + UVB radiation away.

the invisble zinc goes on just like your regular suncreen, white cream but will disapear once rubbed in, I am using it all the time with cricket and surfing in the skin cancer hotspot in the world so I can vouch for it.

Anything 50+ with UVA & UVB should do the job.

Try P20. It's expensive but worth it, one application lasts 10 hours and is water/sweat resistant. It's clear, light and non greasy. I swear by it.

I currently use Piz Buin which is okay! Once I became delusional and thought I could tan so bought some oil - regret that greatly!
