Non-greasy sun cream

I know there have been a lot of sun scream posts on here but could anyone advise on a non-greasy sun cream for park days?

I’ve tried the Soltan aerosol spray which is great but really expensive for how quickly you use it. The cheaper Aldi version is ok but a bit greasy and doesn’t seem to dry as well.

The best I’ve ever used was Bananna Boat sport which we bought when in Florida when we had ran out but ideally hoping to take some rather than buy it out there if possible.

Thanks

I love banana boat but my supplies have run out so i tried the ambre solaire mist spray and the Sainsburys own Sun protect mist spray. The sainsburys one was great, not greasy. I have fair skin and burn easily and despite being in the sun all day it protected me well.

I buy the coppertone sport when we get to the states, it’s usually about $12 for 2 cans. I can’t stand actual suncream, especially when you’re so sweaty out there. They have much more choice out there and are made for that climate so always get it tgere.

Why? Buy the sunscreen at Walgreens, far more choice, especially for that climate and cheaper.

I absolutely love banana boat dry oil and I get an amazing tan with it! Unfortunately I can’t get it in U.K. and last time In Florida I bought several cans for future holidays and have just about run out! I’m hoping walgreens still have it, other than that sea and ski is also good which I got in Walmart.

We buy Neutrogena Dry Touch Sunscreen Spray over there - haven't used anything else for years and never burn, its also very good for anyone with sensitive skin. We love it so much that if we run out at home I pay the postage to ship it over !
