Bemotrizinol is the ingredient being discussed.

If you're looking for a specific product to try, check out Ombrelle and also La Roche-Posay's Anthelios line. I share this as a Canadian (bemotrizinol has been available here for years), but check the ingredients because it may vary by country because of regulations.

Aside: I did a bunch of sunscreen research some time ago for my family. I like the non-absorbing/non-reactive aspect of mineral screens but settled on a chemical screen and bemotrizinol seemed favoured but we landed instead on the Kinesys brand of sprays which we love because they're very waterproof and sweatproof in our experience but they feel like almost nothing. YMMV.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Any idea If I search for Kinesys spray product on the American Amazon site will it be the same? What are the active ingredients?

Your clothes still need to have a certain SPF, and you're not gonna wear gloves when 100 outside are you?

This isn't realistic for something likeriding your bike where you get lots of sun on your face and limbs.

Unless you are talking about a Burqa, i think that is not true.
