Non sticky high factor suncream

[pdcdad]

I need a high factor as redhead but non sticky something that sinks in well preferably a spray any recommendations. Everything I seem to use just seems to sit on my skin which when it’s warm feels awful
Thanks in advance

I use Ultrasun 30 family. I was a redhead (now going white) very fair skin and burn at the sight of sun but found this brilliant. I have very sensitive skin and react to most sun creams but didn’t with this. It rubs in easily and doesn’t feel sticky or leave a residue and lasts all day (I sometimes topped up on extra hot days). It doesn’t stain clothes either.

It’s quite expensive but I wouldn’t use any other now.

I hate that feeling of some suncreams it makes you feel hot before you start the day. I’m happy to pay for something that is going to work and feel good. I’m also a redhead that is fading gently 😄

Have a look at Nuxe sun creams. They are easy to apply, non sticky and don’t have that toxic smell. Also fairly natural and kinder to your skin. More expensive than most but regularly on offer. I stocked up earlier in the year when it was on offer at M&S beauty

I use Ultrasun Family 30 too. I'm also a redhead and burn easily. Like you I hate the feeling of having something sitting on my skin and/or feeling greasy; Ultrasun Family 30 doesn't, it binds to the skin so that you can't feel it anymore and doesn't come off easily.

I also use Ultrasun Face 30. All other sun creams make my eyes water. Like the Ultrasun Family, Ultrasun Face also binds to the skin and feels like you're not wearing anything.

Ultrasun do have a spray, but it's the Sport version and I find it greasy.

Ambre Solair soft and silky. I always use this as it doesn’t feel like you have suntan lotion on (which i hate). This year I’ve only seen factor 30 in boots but I’ve had spf 50 in the past too so maybe that’s still available on line.

Don’t think the Nuxe is on offer in M&S atm but loads of places sell it but mainly online

I have always used the Boots own brand Soltan Dry Touch range - as it doesn't leave you feeling sticky. I like to use a spray but they seem to have changed it this year - the nearest description to what I have used in the past seems to be their Soltan Quick Dry Protect lotion SPF50+ 200ml - so a lotion not a spray, but the reviews for this look good - including some from red headed people. Hope it helps.
