What kind of sunscreen do you use?

It's summer here in the northern hemisphere and I was wondering what kinds of sunscreen others are using.

I like the idea of a spray type, but the reality is that they seem to be too oily on my skin, plus spraying indoors leaves an oil slick on the floor. Dangerous!

What kinds of sunscreen do you use?

SPF 30 to 50 clothing. I spend most of my time indoors. I have not been able to get tinted windows on van. My glasses block UV and glare.

SPF 30 cream. My allergist recommended to get sunscreen containing zinc. Apparently this easy to tan in 5 minutes flat sun bunny has developed sun sensetivity/allergy. Now I itch like crazy! I guess I can blame that on the Lupus overlap part of the MCTD. Sucks!

My rheumy recommended a sunscreen located right at the pharmacy - not prescription though -  I have a bottle in the car and cannot get to it right this minute, but I believe it is called Athelios 60 spf?  It is not cheap but it is a cream in a white bottle with orange and yellow...this season, so far, it is the best protection I have had.  In past years already in mid June I have had burns and blisters on my face (maybe due to plaquenil and photosensitivity)? but this year - knock on wood, no blisters or bad burns!  If you ask a pharmacist about it at your local pharmacy, they can steer you in the right direction.  My rheumy told me it is the best for folks with autoimmune.

Stay safe in the sun!

For the 1st time this year I got sun-blisters along top of my shoulders and back of neck.
None of other parts of body reacted to sun.

In May sat out on deck for awhile with my back towards sun (naturally face away because of eyes), maybe 20 minutes. 
I am on Methodreate now. So a new  slight adjustment.
At home we had Neutrogena (Wet Skin) SPF 85+ ..spray, on hand for granddaughter.

I like the spray as it is so easy to apply. My right arm is weak .. easier to spray and I am not missing spots.

On sale I found a L'oreal Sunscreen which has a light tint .. so no need for make-up. I have been using everyday.

Neutrogena Sensitive Skin spf 60. I use Avalon moisterizer spf 20 on my face when I'm not going to spend time outdoors and in the winter.  Both are mineral-based sunblocks.
