I thought I should bring a sunscreen spray during my long practice runs. I noted that EDS sells 2 brands. If any of you have used this before, can you provide advise as to which one is better? I posted the ingredients below. Thanks!

This is a great question!!! I would love to know what you all think is the best stray also. What should one look for in a spray? I would use mainly on my children and myself for a re-application. We do alot of outdoor things in summer so when we are out and about I like to re-apply sunscreen and spay is sooooo much easier with kids 
essq...good luck on your race..how exciting for you.

I just realized EDS also sells a Dermalogica Sunblock SPF 30...But I am clueless as to the physical sublocks or mineral sunblocks. I do not know which type is better. I also do not know what type of sunblock Dermalogica or AHAVA or Peter Roth is.  ...........So much to know, so little time (I have a $40 certificate that expires tonight). Help!  |

| If I were choosing among these three products my first choice would be the Dermalogica, I think it would provide the most sunscreen protection. Second, the PTR and third the Ahava. They are all chemical sunscreens. |

thanks for your response, Jom. You probably sent your comment about 2 minutes after I put in my order at EDS. I ordered PTR (No reason, I just flipped a coin). Oh well, I'll see how it works and probably report in a month or 2. |
