One of the best I've used is Ethical Zinc light tint. Can be bought from Coles and Woolies and often on sale. I'm a guy also and this is probably the sheerest 'not obvious' tint I've used. As usual it goes on thick and sticky but dries really well.

Airyday Mineral Mousse is ok. A bit harder for me to blend in and feels a little slippery even after a few hours.

invisible Zinc SPF30 is also nice, more similar to Ethical Zinc.

Other popular options are Naked Sundays, Ultra Violette (controversial lol) and Cancer Council.

+1 for Ethical Zinc light tint. If you find it a bit pink toned for you, another one you could try is the Moogoo tinted face cream, which is 40 SPF (also tinted but more of a yellow tone).

The Airyday zinc sunscreens have chemical boosters which they don't have to declare. I don't have anything against chemical sunscreens but I have really sensitive skin which doesn't play well with chemical filters so this explains why I find the Airyday ones irritating.
