Do you have access to SP20 ?...bonds to your cells (or somesuch technobabble) and lasts all day.
Put it on half an hour before you go

out.

leave to dry, drys out completely and then you're ok for the rest of the day, swimming,
sweating, whatever. Works a treat. My son and I, both

Sorry, got it wrong, it's called P20 and can be found :- p20.co.ukhomepage.htmlOpen ↗

Haven't checked links to see if available in US, but this stuff is 'the best' (tm), without a doubt
- from one who burns with no trouble. Good luck, Dave.

what about an oil free sunscreen? My good friend has a lot of skin issues and regular sun screen
causes her to break worse than any 40 year old should. She uses a Coppertone product that states
specifically that is it oil free and for sensitive skin.

I spilled some oil free coppertone sport stuff last year on a windowsill. I didn't see the spill for
a day or two as it was hidden under the bottle. Whn I cleaned it up the paint came right off the
window sill. Kinda creeped me out about putting it on my skin.

Could be a good marketing tool, stay burn free while you strip the paint off your house.

I need something that isn't greasy, sweatproof and will not make my face breakout. I've been using
Coppertone Sport spf30, but it doesn't seem to be working as well as before...maybe it's expired??

As a fair skinned, slightly reddish hair I fry with minimal exposure. I use Banana Boat sport stuff
mostly 30spf and 15 spf, stays on well with sweat, and water, not greasy and does not stink too bad.
I too break out from many products and have not really had a problem with this product. YMMV

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, a helmet would be it. The long-term benefits of
helmet use have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more
reliable than my own meandering cycling. I will dispense this advice now.

Very good.

Terrific, Huw! Hope you don't mind that I forwarded it to some non-AM-B cyclist friends (too
late now, anyway 🙂 I left your name attached, of course, so if you get some love letters or
hate mail....

Lucky for you your skin isn't made of latex! Don't be rediculous! The stuff is made to go on skin.
Water disolves sugar, so perhaps we should all stop showering! 🙂

Sunny weather in UK this weekend, having read your posts I went into the other room to ask my wife
what spf we use.

She's watching TV about 6 bimbos on holiday in the sun who are having their skins monitored by
medics for sun damage. This follows a new report that 60,000 people died in UK last year of skin
cancer, this is a greater figure than in Australia before their cover up the children campaign. The
tests showed 3 of the girls had sundamaged skin prior to arriving there and two others had reached
the same level since arriving there. All 6 were determined to use skin products to tan, but none of
them had anything near the necessary sun protection factor. Worrying aint it? Mike

There should be an expiry date on it somewhere.
I use Kinesys spf 30. It's a spray and is oil and alcohol free plus water & sweat resistent.

Wrong info again. I'm told its 8100 deaths in 5 years. So its safe to come to the UK after all. I
swear I heard them say that figure on TV, then came back to the PC and typed it. Sorry guys Mike

Hey thanks! That looks like good stuff....definitely worth checking out. The Coppertone lotion is
good, but that spray seems like it's much thinner and dries quick; should keep the pads inside my
full-face helmet a little cleaner. Extra bonus for being alcohol free....my body don't like alcohol
(inside or out).

My Coppertone bottle says it expired in 6/95 or 6/99 (hard to read).....sheesh.....either one is
old. Guess it's wasn't worth buying a large (8 oz) size of the stuff.
