    I recently bought the 'Sport' version of one of those continuous spray
    sunscreens. Turns out it dries to a matte finish and I suppose, doesn't
    migrate while 'sporting'. It mentioned non-slip grip..... This, too, is
    alcohol based and burns cuts.

    The best Sun block I have found is from Avon, it is no greasy, water
    proff and comes in SPF8 - SPF40.
    It is ony £2.50.

    I really like the Neutrogena stick. I'm a fly fisherman
    and I don't want to touch my flies with sunscreen on my
    hands.

    2nd this recommendation. A writer for the NY Times gave it a
    the best rating for protection against a wide range of UV rays.
    I've been very happy with it. The SPF is something like 55, but
    it does cost a little more.

  10. I'm a big supporter of a Vancouver company that makes the best
    sunscreen. It's a dry oil style and isn't greasy, doesn't sweat off and
    doesn't give me breakouts when I use it on my face. You can find it all
    over the US

    I don't swear by any one brand..... I just get whatever is cheap and
    high SPF and "sport" version (won't sweat off easily).

    But one thing I learned from a book or mag way back when I started
    running was not to put the sunblock on the forehead, so that it
    wouldn't run down into your eyes from sweating, etc. For me that works
    fine, since I wear a cap with a large brim to shade my forehead. And of
    course, the sunblock goes everywhere else that is exposed.

    A little tip that might work for you.

    I liked that one too until I tried the Neutrogena Ultra Soft Hydrating
    sunblock. This is the most perfect sunblock I've tried so far! It is
    very light weight & not greasy at all which I like a lot while I
    thought the Ultra Sheer was still a bit greasy for me & doesn't cause
    me to breakout like the other sunblocks.
