OK with summer now well and truely here in London (well for the last 3 days anyway!!) and the rest of the Northern Hemisphere, can any one recommend a decent vegan suncream?
Ideally one that won't come off with a hint of sweat or water so good for all sports but also one thats not too thick and leaves you looking whiter than when you put it on!
I have the Lavera Sun 20 but its thick and greasy and horrible. I prefer the spray types but don't know if you can get any good vegan ones that work? Ideally want a factor 30.
Any suggestions??

I use Superdrug SPF 50 in a spray bottle. Waterproof, so doesn't leave my contact lenses covered in sludge after 5 mins running in the summer.

I've used the Yaoh stuff for a few years now - it works, keeps well and isn't tested on animals. I do make a point of applying early and letting it absorb rather than slapping it on at the last minute. A good layer of last years leftover SPF 15 got me through 8 hours running in the sunshine on Sunday without needing reapplication or dripping into my eyes with the sweat which I hate.

Another vote for superdrug here. I use the spf50 sun yoghurt, but then my wife's a Goth so hey.
