To avoid that nasty feel when you apply sun screen as well as that pasty white stuff here is what I do. I take a hand lotion that I can deal with and mix in sun screen into the bottle. I only need to use abut 1/8 sunscreen to the bottle. This soaks in quick and is not uncomfortable when you apply it. I actually put it on when I get out of the shower and I am good to go.![]()
