Las Vegas?  I'd recommend SPF 50.  That sun is STRONG.

Heaven forbid you could even use a hat.  8)

In general, I really despise sunscreens.  I can't stand the greasiness of them and all of them make me feel hot!

When I have to use sunscreen I always use Neutrogena spray on sunscreen.  It is not at all oily.  You don't have to use your hands to put it on, (excpet if you want to apply it to your face and ears, etc.), it dries immediately, it is water resistant, it doesn't run into your eyes.  It comes off easily in the shower with normal soap and water.

It comes in many different strengths. 


BUT it is not cheap - about $11 for a small spray bottle.

This is one reason I wear a hat whenever I am going to be outside for more than fifteen minutes.

I also do not like the "sealed in" feeling a sunscreen gives me. Still, I end up using a spray with a spf of at least 30 to keep my ears, nose and neck from getting red.
