Does anybody have suggestions for sunscreen to wear while bicycling?
I've been using a stock of TopCare SPF30, but it's running out and I
don't particularly like the odor and texture of the stuff.

Something non-greasy, so it won't crud up clothes, and easily washed
off after a ride would be desirable. It only needs to last a couple hours.

Thanks for reading, and any ideas.

I've used Nivea Sun for years which is a SPF 50 PS++ sun protection
cream with some moisturizing capability.

It is just a basic sun protection without all the fancy packaging and
special ingredients that other brands seem to have, and cheaper too
:-)

It is marked "Non-sticky and Water Resistant" and although it does
seem sort of greasy when applied I've never had it "crud up clothes"
and it certainly washes off when I take my after ride shower.

Note: I think the price may vary depending upon where you buy it as I
see a 200 ml. bottle for sale on Amazon for $21.20 (shipped from
England) and I certainly do not pay any such price here in Bangkok.

The Thailand market's ingredients:
Aqua, Homosalate, Octocrylene, Alcohol Denat., Butyl
Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol
Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Glyceryl Stearate, Hydrogenated Coco-Glycerides,
Sodium Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonate, Glycerin, Tapioca Starch, Cetearyl
Alcohol, Phenoxyethanol, Silica Dimethyl Silylate, Xanthan Gum, Sodium
Stearoyl Glutamate, Dimethicone, Methylparaben, Sodium Acrylates/C10-30
Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Trisodium EDTA, Tocopheryl Acetate, Menthol,
Sodium Chloride, Parfum

Would I like fries with that? Yes, in fact, just the fries, Aqua, Sodium
Chloride, and Menthol. And a regular heteronormative salad, please. I'm
not allergic to everything yet, so no Octocrylene, please. Now where's my
hat and my non-tapioca starched shirt?
