I have been using Coppertone WaterBabies as it’s supposed to be both waterproof and tear free. It seems to hold up relatively well during long swims, but it can really sting the eyes.
WaterBabies gets around the claims by using slightly altered versions of the same chemicals that it claims it doesn't have. I wouldn't use it on a baby, or on myself.
