non greasy/shiny, non whitening sunscreen

Hello, I'm looking to use sunscreen daily but I can't find one that
doesn't leave a residue of some sort on my face especially after
reapplying. I'm a male so I can't cover anything up with powder or
makeup. I'm also looking for good UVA protection (PPD of at least 15)
so that excludes all american sunscreens at the moment. Here is a list
of ones I've already spent alot of money trying.
The best one so far is Bioderma Photoderm BIO spf 30/ppd 20. This one
is just about non greasy when it dries but it does leave a slight
whitish cast. Lots of denatured alcohol in it.
Bioderma MAX Lait spf 100/ppd 31 – too greasy and somewhat whitening
Bioderma MAX Fluid spf 100/ppd 29 – a little less greasy and somewhat
whitening.
Anthelios XL Lait spf60/ppd 28 – horribly ridiculously greasy/shiny
Anthelios W Gel spf40/ppd 19 – badly greasy, but not whitening
Any other suggestions? I'm beginning to wonder if the 'cure' is worse
then the 'disease'. Is looking like a freak all day worth less
aging/wrinkles?

makeup. I'm also looking for good UVA protection (PPD of at least 15)

is concerned, but I'm reading that PA+++ only guarantees a PPD of 8. I
might be willing to give up the high PPD for daily use, but looking at
the active ingredient list from previous postings, I wonder if the
avobenzone is stable in this formulation? If not, this sunscreen might
be pretty ineffective at blocking UVA after 1 hour. I really don't
want to apply sunscreen every hour...hmm
