Default Trip 2 south pacific- MY SKIN-10 pts?

Ok I am only 15 but I believe it is better that I realize the importance of healthy skin protection now rather than later living with regrets.

I am mixed race so I have a darker complexion than many but I am considered fairly light skinned.My mom is from Papua new guinea and I went there a little of 5 months ago and we stayed for a little over 3 months. It is an EXTREMELY HOT AND HUMID PLACE Bt my familys from the coast. really took the opportunity to tan and very much negleted wearing sunscreen. although i didnt get burnt I got VERY tan.afta I came bak I noticed my skin on my back was blotchy and i had a new mole. I am also have a mild skin condition on my arms called pitrias alba which causes white spots and are more prone 2 skin cancer.I realized that recently new studys went out saying that 85% of sunscreens dont do wut they say.MY QUESTION is what are sunscreens that have spf 30 that I could wear daily that dont have a smell. They can b moisterizers but have 2 have spf 30 ormore

i use banana boat sport dri-block
and it works for me, never get burns, but can still tan.
in case u dont know, sunscreen has to be reapplied, in order for it to work better,
and when applying it to your back, have someone else do it for u so u dont miss any spots.
as for the smell, it smells like a normal sunscreen, but not that strongly, and its spf 30
im guessing ur going by flight, so make sure to follow the 3oz rule when packing liquids (like sunblock) for the airport.
