I've just come back from picking up my prescription from a Lloyds Pharmacy (Swaythling, Southampton - but offer could be in more stores), where i picked up some bottles of their own brand sensative sun lotion spf25 & 15 for only £1 a bottle - normal price £6.99 each.
Reason for reduction is brand has been repackaged. Checked the best before which is Jan 07.
Good Luck in your find, and have a fantastic holiday... anywhere nice?

I sing the praises of Reimanns P20 Sun Lotion. If applied correctly you will not burn and after one application will be protected all day! Cheapt it aint - can always buy it in Duty Free (at one time that was the only retail place in UK where you could buy it) nowadays Boots,Superdrug and Wilkinsons sell it. You will probably have to pay at least £12.99. Worth investing your Boots advantage points if you save them.

Wash first with a glycerine free product ie. basic soap, no shower gels with moisturizers. Apply liberally, it is non greasey. Do not go into the sun for at least an hour after which time you can apply make up. This product is ideal for sensitive skin and I think apart from staying out of the sun is the best protection you can buy.

Look at the suncream for babies, in Superdrug and Boots and supermarkets.

i always buy suncream from cancer research charity shops - they may have sensitive skin ones too. i figure if anyone knows what needs to be in a sun cream, it's a cancer charity! failing that, 'simple' do suncreams and they shouldn't contain any ingredients that will cause harm.
