Can you recommend sunblock that isn't sticky, slimey, or uncomfortable?

[blstriker]

I work outside a lot on the weekends and am getting a pretty bad farmer's tan. However, I hate the feeling of sunblock, but I guess I need it. Can you recommend any sunblock that isn't sticky, slimey, or uncomfortable to wear?

Thanks,

Brian

blstriker, does it need to be waterproof?

Coppertone Gel works well for me. Rubs in quickly with no mess. Smells a bit like bug spray at first but that goes away.

HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!! That made me laugh out loud at work!

I use Coppertone Oil Free. Not greasy, not smelly, either. I tan well but burn after about 4 hours with no sunblock.

I second the Coppertone Oil Free lotion. It is a bit slimey at first, but dries quickly and is MUCH more comfortable than the usual layer of goo you have to put up with.

"NoAd" It's great stuff. It looks generic but the ingredients are #1, in fact if you put it on after being in the sun it will help turn your burn into a tan.

I am glad everyone is using the stuff.

I have a pre-cancerous skin lesion that is getting frozen off soon.

When I use sunscreen while bicycle riding I use Banana Boat sport.
