Banana Boat Blows

Protecting my albino like skin from the Vegas sun is important to me. After 3 days, my Walmart brand stuff ran out and we bought Banana Boat brand Sun Wear Faces oil-free daily sunblock lotion. It's SPF 30 and advertises an ultra sheer clean feel. It even has age-defying complex which is important because I'm of an age that needs defying.
I didn't buy the shit, my wife did so back off. Anyway, I spent several hours at the pool and most of that was in the shade. When I got to my room and looked in the mirror a boiled lobster was looking back at me. I also got a fucking sun rash of some kind so my sunburn has little red dots in it.
We paid $10 for 3 ounces of this shit.

Funny, your coat looks thick, black and shiny in your picture. Were you recently shaved?

Moose:
Thank you. It's mostly due to diet but there are thin spots around my belly where I lick a little.
Jack:
That is the exact product I ran out of before I bought this stuff. It was cheap and effective.
In my lobster rage, I called the Banana Boat people and they handled things very well. My hate is assuaged.

My sunscreen bill is high. Try anything with Helioplex. It works well for us down here in Skin Cancer Country.

Good humor from both of you!

Only buy sunscreen that surfers use.

I will second:
NoAd is the shit.
I will also chime in for the spray on Coppertone stuff. It goes on and stays sticky, though.
