High factor sun oil (not cream)
 
Hi Guys
My wife is allergic to sun CREAM but ok with oil. We usually use P20 as it is strong enough for the kids and allows my wife not to worry about touching them when they have it on!

Can anyone tell me if you can get high factor oils in NZ?

We use Hawaiian Tropic Ozone Sport sunblock spray 30+spf

Its waterproof, non greasy oil free spray. Its a bit difficult to describe, its definately not a cream, it has a watery consistency, a bit like P20. I use it cause its good on the beach when the kids are sandy and moan about rubbing in more cream. This stuff comes out in a fine misty spray, so if applied liberally enough you can get away without rubbing in.

I would list the ingredients but there are loads, if you can name what she is allergic to i can tell you if its in it.
