I loved SCAPE but they went out of business.  I'm gearing up for HIMs and IMs and am looking for recommendations on sunscreen. 

What I loved about Scape is that they had a little face stick that fit in my bento box, so I could re-apply while mid-bike .  I also used it around the edges of my tri kit to ensure that the sunscreen wouldn't rub off.  That stuff was amazing - no sunburn at all from IMTX in 2011. 

I'm looking for something similar.  Suggestions?

Great stuff.

Great company.

They have a face stick as well (I think).

Not really that expensive compared to other stuff out there.

Ocean potion have a spot stick for faces. It's liquid so goes on easily with no grimy, greasy, goopy feeling after. That will be in my bento box this year. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001INBQ60.Got mine in Target.

I swear by Headhunter. I use it all summer long. It comes in a stick form and stays on while I'm out in the water surfing. I also use it during summer HIM training and it doesn't get into my eyes. It's thick but not greasy. It's the only sunscreen that I've used that stays on. You can find it at most surf shops or swimoutlet.com. It's not cheap but it works.

Good Ole Coppertone sport works just fine for me and you can get it at any Walgreen's anywhere.  If you are spending a lot of time on the water you may need to reapply once.  13 hours on the water last Sat. 1 reapplication and no sunburn except where I forgot to do the tops of my ears.
