View Full Version : Sunscreen that actually works for sports?

I need something for my fair-skinned 9 year-old that won't sweat off! He's a serious soccer player and runner and will be doing both this spring and summer. Neutrogena Sheer Touch that the rest of the family loves for faces just doesn't work. It turns white and kind of clumps up after he sweats for a while, and he's clearly getting some color and some tiny freckles through it.

We have some Blue Lizard Sport (but it's almost gone). Does anyone know if that's any better? Or do you have any other recommendations for him?

TIA!

Skin Deep may hate it, but we swear by Coppertone Sport Continuous Spray for DH, who sweats EVERYTHING off.

I've been using Coppertone Sport since I was in High School and biking and swimming everyday during the summer.

My other suggestion is to get one of the sunscreen sticks designed for the face. I found it is less likely to come off and run into the eyes with sweat.

Another Coppertone Sport user - I swim/bike/run in some form or another every day in the summer.
