    I am loving the advice and compassion shown by some of these posters!!!! Jeeeezzzz. Pardon me for being in agony and trying to get some resolution to this problem! Next time I'll just suffer quietly in the corner, and let the next customer suffer a similar reaction! And contrary to what you might think visidigi and crazynerd - there was NO allergy warning on the product or packaging - otherwise I might have trodden alittle more cautiously ( if you parden the pun ).

    I think you are missing the point. People can have an allergic reaction to anything. Some people are allergic to sunlight. You can't put an allergy warning on everything.

    Until you know whether the product was faulty, you need to consider that this may be no-ones fault. You may simply be allergic to it.

    Have you tried calling them? Freephone: 08000 742 040

    I cannot find any industry memberships on their website so not sure where you can escalate it to really.

    Trading Standards perhaps?

    That would depend on whether the manufacturer has taken all precautions to reduce the possibility of such an occurrence. They would have had to test the product before putting it on sale. If they failed to do so, then they would be at fault.

    The difference between the sun and a skin product, is that the skin product is not naturally occurring and you don't pay for the sun (yet).
