It became imperative that I move to the coast
Yea, thats right. Chimps hide from the hot sun.
But if must go out into the sun, try Neutrogena Fresh Cooling Body Mist SunBlock. It comes in a spray, its not greasy, has very little sent and since its a spray your hands won't get greasy.

Often the ones made for toddlers and babies are scent free and non-greasy...or have a look at the hypo-allergenic ones.
Try some of the sunscreens labeled "Faces". They are the only ones that I can use and not break out. I also use it on my arms.

Banana Boat! -- sounds right for The Chimp. Just don't drink it, Cooker.
Vanicream makes some serious sunblocks. They are fragrance-free and free of other famous irritants. URL: http://www.psico.com/products/sunscreens.cfm
Also, I should say that my daughter likes the Banana Boat product recommended by someone else.

Hi Cooker,
Thought I would let ya know what I use. It is a little bit greasy applying, but not too bad.
Due to my medications, I have become Photosensitive to the sun, and as a result, get some nasty red blotchy areas, rash like, on my skin that gets too much sun. My dermatologist recommended a sun screen called "Blue Lizard". It has an SPF of 30, but works like it was a full sunblock.
Prior to trying it, I went through many different brands. I have been using the Blue Lizard now for over 5 years, and it works. I don't get sunburn, and it does prevent my skin from exposure to sun breakouts.
The most important thing for me though is that it lasts a long time, and if for the most part waterproof. I spend long days on the weekends in the sun on my boat and in the water. This stuff really works for me.
It can be a bit pricey, so I search and find deals on the internet.
It may not be what you are looking for, but for anyone reading this thread, and is looking for something that lasts while in the water it may be just the ticket.

I'm a big fan of the the Bullfrog spray-on stuff. I was skeptical, but got a sample and it seems to work great.

Ms. Janie had a great Neutrogena #30 touch less spray out on her boat in Texas. It was refreshing on hot skin Worked well too

Stay away from the Banana Boat CONTINUOUS SPRAY sunscreen. It's like an aerosol spray (very convenient), but it is VERY GREASY. I spray my kids down in the morning and at lunchtime they are still slick, shiny & slippery from it!
Thanks for all the suggestions?..I like Neutrogena products (helps me get in touch with my human side
)?..I tried the Ultra Sheer Body Mist?..SPF 45?..so far so good.....no smell, not sticky and gives my coat a nice shine?.

Hmmm... this is a disappointing update ... used the Coppertone Kids no-rub continuous spray today ... kids & me are all red like lobsters. It was SPF 50, sweatproof, waterproof --- we re-applied generously several times throughout the day --- but it didn't do the job! It was not greasy, but did leave a sticky-like filmy feeling after spraying it on. Maybe I'll check out some of that Neutrogena stuff, it sounds good.
