help!!! glass wont come clean

okay so i know im dumb. I took the car to the beach on tuesday and then proceeded to use the spray sunblock while standing next to the car. well it was really windy and I guess a bunch of it missed me and hit the side view mirror (primarily), with some other splatter on the paint, and driver window. I noticed that night while driving home but totally forgot about it till today at work....

So basically the car was zaino-ed and the stuff that landed on the paint wiped right up with some water. but the windows/mirror wont come clean no matter what I do. I tried just water and that didnt work, then i tried windex and that didnt work, and then i tried an all purpose cleaner/grease cutter and that didnt work (all with paper towels and LOTS of scrubbing). so basically i have a bunch of little dots ALL OVER the side view mirror and some on the window that I have no idea how to get off. a couple of the bigger ones I could pick at with my finger nails but there are too many dots to do try that all the way around....

does anyone (moose maybe?) have any idea how I can get these off??? I would provide pictures but its dark. basically just imagine taking a spray bottle spraying once and having all of the liquid just stick. Im almost 100% its sun tan lotion if that helps at all. my next thought was maybe some sort of abrasive cleaner (pumice cleaner) that would scrub but i dont want to scratch the glass... does anyone have any ideas... please

and this was after getting the windshield replaced today
