  • Cannot recommend this product enough! We used it sceptically in Mexico, and were careful, but still spent alot of time in the pool outside and we just watched people burn around us and we were fine!!!!!

    Great price Gazfaz too, as I am sure Boots sell it for near on £30.00!!!!

    It's £16.29 now.

    Note the UVA rating of P20 is only 3 stars.

    This has an SPF of 20, if you are very fair then this may not be high enough if you're going to be in the sun for prolonged periods.

    Exposure to :
    UVA - Ages the skin
    UVB - Burns the skin

    The Sun Protection Factor (SPF) is the number in this case 20, So your skin will burn in 20 times the time it would if unprotected. So typically you think of sun cream protecting you from UVB rays

    The UVA star rating system shows how well your skin is protected from UVA rays, with 1 star being the least and 5 being the best/highest.

    Quote from Wikipedia
    The SPF is an imperfect measure of skin damage because invisible damage and skin aging are also caused by ultraviolet type A (UVA, wavelength 320 to 400 nm), which does not cause reddening or pain. Conventional sunscreen blocks very little UVA radiation relative to the nominal SPF; broad spectrum sunscreens are designed to protect against both UVB and UVA.[8][9][10] According to a 2004 study, UVA also causes DNA damage to cells deep within the skin, increasing the risk of malignant melanomas.[11] Even some products labeled "broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection" do not provide good protection against UVA rays.[12]
