Speaking of PB back several years ago a group of us Maintenance men decide to judge the "BEST" PB. We brought in over about a week 6 or 8 brands, some brand name, some store brand but all stuff you have heard of. And the Hands Down winner in a blind taste test................Clover Dale from Dollar General.

I would say no group other than little kids eat more PB than construction workers on a daily basis(as well as bologna)........we have very delicate palates and yes we are experts.

I bet it is one of the "big name" brands contracted to put a different label on it. Could be wrong, but I think that happens with some frequency.

Speaking from personal experience (unfortunately), I have used Neutragena Ultra Sheer cream with SPF 100, also SPF 70 on my face and ears. Not had a single sunburn since using it. Usually only reapply once while out.
I use Neutragena Beach Defense on my neck and body with the same results.

Key to applying sunscreen: make sure that you do it about 30-60 minutes prior to going out. Most people wait until they are already outside, and sweating. Makes that first application less effective. I believe that the key is the first application soaking in pre-sweat…

Even with the high SPF, I still get some tanning. I know someone is going to comment that higher SPF sunscreen is only incrementally more effective than 30SPF. While that’s true, if it keeps me from burning, then it keeps me from getting more skin cancers down the road. Every little bit helps. 😎

I think the application time does impact me. I usually put it on right before I go out. Will try to do it sooner going forward. I know what all the big brands taste like because of the volume of perspiration on my face, LOL.

Will put in a plug for Blue Lizard sunscreen. It is great and have never been burned using it. Fun fact is they manufacture it in Johnson City, TN. Can get it at Walgreens and the usual drug stores. Blue Lizard® Sunscreen | Mineral and Mineral-Based Sunscreens

It is obvious you are a Choosy Mother......never mind. I too was am a Jif fan. PP is to sweet and most if not all off brands are just the good stuff rebranded. NOW......ALL NATURAL runny a$$ Peanut butter want a be is not even considered. One of our fellow hired hands brought some in to the tasting ( he said his wife bought it for a recipe) ..........he was beaten around the head and shoulders ........repeatedly.........for days...........we did not approve.

Thanks Doc. Got the initial bandage off this morning. My daughter had to do the dressing because the stitches creeped my wife out I will take a picture tonight when we change the dressing. The only drawback so far is that I couldn't use my CPAP last night. I also had to go without my glasses yesterday. The doctor didn't do a graph, he made a flap from another part of my nose and smoothed it all out. I think it will actually improve my overall appearance.

When they did Mohs on my ear, my son was a Boy Scout and we were signed up for a camping trip. I told him that he would have to do my bandage change on the campout. Back of my ear, so I couldn’t see it.(None of the other Dads going had medical training and all were wusses with wounds).
My son takes one look at the open wound (can’t flap the ear like the nose) and almost threw up. Didn’t go on the campout.
My ear took a while for the open wound to close because it was at least the size of a quarter. Funny thing, within a week, I was doing the dressing changes myself. 😎

The best Sun Screen I've ever seen is a plain white Tee Shirt and or white socks. Think about it when we "Rednecks" get home at night after working all day everything is sun tanned or sun burned except where that white tee shirt was .

The smell of asphalt and or sweat and marlboro is overtaken by smell of a Murcan pilsner, and Marlboro. Grumbled frustrations bout gas prices are replaced by grumbled, unintelligible alcohol fueled rants about gas prices.

Not judging, but I don't need to know what you look for in a man....
