I need some advice from you OW veterans of which is the best waterproof sunblocks.
There are so many on the market that I don't want to buy them and try them all and find out the hard way that they don't work.
I currently use a brand called aloe gator waterproof 40+ gel which is suppose to last 8 hours.
But I read somewhere sunblocks are suppose to contain something called Parsel or Titanium or something like that, and this aloe gator doesn't contain either.

Just be careful not to apply said lotion with bare hands then fiddle with your goggles. THAT makes for a long day! I bring baby wipes (when my kids were littler and I had them around) or something like that to get the stuff completely off my hands. Also, if you put lotion on your face, don't do it right before you start- your goggles won't sit well atop goop (swedes, anyway, in my experience). Plus, remember to protect your eyes with UV blocking goggles...
