    Don'r bother with this. I read an article in one of the papers over the weekend, where experts were saying that cheapo sun tan lotions (in poundland, poundshop, B&M, etc.) were just as good as the more expensive stuff.

    I don't agree, I've tried cheap and expensive and my favourites are Soltan and Nivea. Soltan once for my face and Nivea protect and refresh aerosol for my body.

    I also took advantage of this deal again today and have bought some of the once spf30 spray to try, we were out at a country show yesterday (stalking Martin Lewis) and reapplying every two hours got really annoying!

    Just seen a post on FB. In today's Mail (£1) there's a moc for a free soltan product valid today only. From the banner on the paper it looks like a travel size so guessing moc would work in conjunction with this. Haven't seen a copy of the paper yet so can't check the Ts & Cs.

    I tried Soltan Once and I burnt within 2 hours.

    Will stick to Ultrasun or Piz Buin Once a day now.

    Each to their own but just a word of warning for people if they haven't used it before. May be best not to rely on it being a once a day product.


    Soltan Once works for me, though I don't take that literally if using the pool/sea.

    Having said that, this forum is Grabbit While You Can, as opposed to Product Review! Have you seen your recommendations on offer or at a bargain price you can share with us?
    Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.

    According to the packaging, Soltan Once is for up to 8 hours sun exposure OR 40 minutes swimming (not OR which is a bit ambiguous), I always make sure I reapply if I'm out in the sun for more than 7 hours but that beats reapplying every two!

    The mini Soltans - below 100 ml size - are still showing on the boots website as 3 for 2.

    The other offers might be worth trying and seeing if they work instore

    Suncare promotions change tonight if I remember correctly.

    There is an offer for a free Soltan water bottle, not sure of the full details, but I do know that they are already in short supply before the offer has started.
    If you find you are drinking too much give this number a call. 0845 769 7555

    There is also a voucher for 100 points for two Soltan products in the May/June Boots magazine
