Black leather and sunscreen

I have a 2012 SV with black leather. Anyone know of a good method to protect the leather from sunscreen or better yet remove existing blotches?

Has the sunscreen already turned white on the seats or is it just shiny patches.
I would make sure all the stuff is off of my body before I jumped in. Getting it off won't be a problem, but finding sunscreen repellent will be

My max has the dark leather interior, and where the sun has hit through the sunroof for years, the leather hasn't really even whited or lightened at all. I have put Zaino leather cleaner/protectant on it ever since I bought it.

Leatherique on my 2012

A knowledgeable buddy of mine recommended Leatherique for a similar situation with the seat in my 2012. I haven't tried it yet but it comes well recommended. Anybody out there with any experience with this product on the 2012 model seats?

What do you mean protect from sunscreen? As in if you have sunscreen on and you accidentally rub it on the leather?

Any water based ph neutral leather cleaner to clean then a UV protectant would work. If you look you can find a 1 step leather clean/conditioner but do your seats a favor and use a quality microfiber towel from theragcompany.com to apply the leather cleaner.
