I dropped a blob earlier today and every time I go near it, it just gets worse!

Rub a bunch of babies on the affected area and then take them to the beach.

oops!
I have no idea! However, I will tell you about Sudocrem!
When my daughter was about 3 months old, my labrador got the Sudocrem (you know, the cream for putting on bottoms to stop nappy rash).
She ate an industrial sized container of the stuff!
We rang the vets. They said we could bring her in, but it would cost a fortune. However, the other choice was to make her sick. How, we asked. Give her soap powder (you know, the sort for washing your clothes). Then she will be sick. Okay. How do you get a dog to eat soap powder? She's a labrador! Three tablespoons of soap powder to two pieces of Easter Egg. She ate it, no problem.
We then shut her in the back garden (as you would, if you are expecting her to be sick!)
A little later, she was foaming at the mouth. Then the inevitable happened, in the middle of the lawn!
We removed the worst and left the rest, for the weather to wash away. One problem: Sudocrem is waterproof!
We had a penalty spot for about 3 years. The rain would not wash it away and the grass would not grow through it!
I think that, if the FA used Sudocrem, they could save a fortune on painting lines!
So I think you may well have the same success at removing sun cream from the garden as we did removing Sudocrem from the lawn!!!

WD 40 or Goop (hand cleaner) will probably get it out, but then you have to clean them up. I know Goop will come out, but I'm not sure about WD 40, so check an inconspicuous spot first. WD 40 is more likely to clean up the sunblock, though. The stuff is amazing.

My brother dropped a whole lot on our carpet. I boiled the kettle, got a soapy sponge, poured some boiling water over the stain and scrubbed, it needs a bit of elbow grease. good luck getting it off....

Sprinkle with talcum powder to soak it up, just dab at it with some soft cloth and keep doing it till it goes, hope this works.

Have you tried powder? Blot as much of it up as you can then sprinkle powder on it, let it dry then hoover, continue doing so till it's gone.
Best suggestion I have sorry.
