Suncream

Orlee

Anyone got any recommendations for a good suncream? My sister is heading off to "magaloof" next week and I want to send her off with something decent

She's fair skined with a good few freckles and I want to make sure she wears something decent ... she's 18 so I won't be trusting her to do it as regularly as she probably needs to!!!

For the face I can highly recommend La Roche Posay Fluide Extreme 50+ - it's nice and liquid so not gloopy like normal stuff, and you can get it tinted so you don't go around looking like a greasy ghost the whole time! I wear it sailing all the time, and it's magic stuff.

For the body, I reckon they're all much of a muchness - it's just a matter of having two or three different factors so that you can reduce the factor as you get used to the sun (I know you should be in F30 the whole time, but who does that??!!). I usually go for whatever one is on offer at the time of buying

I am fair skinned and use this every year its a great product, and you use very little of it every time you apply it, its expensive but read it over and remember you use very little in compariosn to sun cream

P20, you only put it on once a day.

For face, I love Vichy spf50 extreme matte fluid, perfect under makeup. There's also a great stick spf 50 from avene that's great for top-up's throughout the day over makeup

I second boots soltan range,I prefer the creams to sprays..

Last all day, just back from holidays and didn't get burned at all with them

Also when I bought them (about a month ago) they were half price in boots (€12 ish each). They also have 5* uva protection,I asked the chemist and they said the soltan is definitely among the best

Edit : I asked the actual pharmacist, not one of the till girls so they weren't just trying to steer me towards boots own brand products
