Your Favourite Sunscreen
« on: December 25, 2018, 05:55:43 PM »
Hey SBGs, what is your favourite sunscreen to use? The internet and these forums seem to be full of information that is fairly consistent about the best types of shaving creams to use and routine but there doesn't seem to be much information about sunscreens. There doesn't appear to be many kinds that cater or market to men with shaved and bald heads. HeadBlade discontinued one. Banana Boat sells sunscreen for scalps in the US. There is BeeBald sunscreen however up here in Canada you can only buy it online and its $13.99 for 50mL and I'd have to spend $35 for free shipping. Based on the size, it would be cheaper to buy Jack Black Face Moisturizer which has SPF 20. I'm looking for something that is SPF 30.

What kind do you use?

I use whatever sunscreen we have in the kitchen at the time. It is always SPF-50.
It doesn't get used on the dome often as I'll usually wear a hat or bandanna to ward of the brutal Perth summer sun.
Still, I'll follow this with interest to see if there are good options available.

I have my eyes on Palmer's Bald Balm https://www.amazon.com/Palmers-Cocoa-Butter-Formula-Mens/dp/B07119X5W3/ref=sr_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1547158830&sr=8-3&keywords=bald+balm which I'm going to buy this Spring.

Anybody else tried it?

I just use what ever is cheap.  I do not use daily since I work in an office.  I am adjusted enough that if I am going to be out an of hours or less, I do not use it.  But If I will be outside for an extended time, I use it.

I use Neutrogena spray sucnscreen.. It is NOT greasy, dries quickly, does not run off when I sweat, and does not come off in the pool.  It washes off easily in the shower with soap and water.

Do tattoos burn easily, or does the sun fade the color?

The sun can fade the color if you're not careful

I hear that water base and mineral sunscreens are the best.

i'm not even sure what this is made of, but it's the best I've ever used. i use it year round. it takes 3 seconds to apply and lasts all day.
