X2 for the Solbar Zinc. It's what my dermotologist gave me after zapping me with the liquid nitrogen.

As Caballito said, the best sunscreens have mechanical blocks Zinc Oxide and/or Titanium Dioxide. Avobenzone aka Parsol 1789 is also a good UVA/UVB block but doesn't seem to protect as long as stuff with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.
