there's also brands like equatorsun that do actual UPF rated clothing which takes a lot of the guesswork out of sun protection, way easier than trying to reapply sunscreen constantly when your working
equatorsun and uv skinz both make good upf sun hats if your outdoors a lot, takes the pressure off trying to reapply face makeup constantly
for full body coverage equatorsun.com actually makes some spf 50+ sun shirts and leggings that take a lot of the guesswork out of it, especially if he's gonna be outside for hours.
or [equatorsun.com] has some physical UPF rated apparell too if you want something thats specifically designed for extended sun exposure.
Australian Gold Botanical is the usual recommendation but honestly equatorsun.com has some decent lightweight UPF 50+ phyiscal options too

Maybe you could get some brynje here as baselayer / souveneir, you could order on fjellsport and ship it somehwere.
I have a Finetrack but I prefer a Brynje or an Alpha Direct as my first layer. They seem to evacuate sweat quicker than the Finetrack.
For someone that does both, no way Brynje is redundant with AD. Its different. AD holds more water and is warmer. Brynje is more flexible and easier to fine tune around for sweaters.
Brynje is nice, but I'd call it an "optional add-on". It doesn't really replace anything in my wardrobe, although it enhances other layers in cold weather.
Brynje on the skin, merino layer over that, and your other layers over. I work outside and have no issues staying warm with this system.
