[Sun Care] Looking for a facial sunscreen for a tropical vacation in May

Hi everyone! I'm going to Punta Cana for a week towards the end of May and am looking for a facial sunscreen to wear while I'm there. I started really getting into skincare around Christmas, and haven't been anywhere with a super high sun exposure since then. Previously I've just used whatever sunscreen I'm using on my body that I pick up from the grocery/drug store.

I have somewhat normal/combo skin that isn't really sensitive to anything that I'm aware of. I'm slightly dry in the winter and slightly oily in the summer. I use my It Cosmetics CC cream daily, which has SPF 50, but I'm not planning on wearing makeup unless we go out to dinner in the evening or something, and would like a non makeup sunscreen so I can reapply often and without a mirror. Since this will be a beach vacation and not a daily use thing, I'm not extremely concerned with a white cast. I know nothing about physical vs chemical sunscreens, but have never really had any sensitivities or reactions to any type of sunscreen before. I was really interested in the Glossier sunscreen, but $25 for 1 fluid oz seems a little on the expensive side.

I do have a tendency to burn, and I'm also a sweaty beast, so a minimum of SPF 30 and something water/sweat resistant are preferred.

Thanks in advance for your help!
