This is a really good affordable sunscreen, if I apply this at the start of the day I find that I never get sun burnt. This isn't my number one sunscreen as I do find it to be quite greasy.

This is a really nice sunscreen to use, It isn't sticky and goes on well. The pump bottle is also alot easier to use than the tubes so you dont end up with sunscreen all over the bottle.
Our whole family has used this sun-block over the years & it has worked well, as long as you remember to keep reapplying every couple of hours, it's a bit sticky & strong-smelling but most sun-blocks are. Keep away from the eyes.
I never go anywhere without my sunscreen anymore, now that I have a baby I worry about her being in the sun so it now lives in my nappy bag. I find this sun block goes on easily and you're not left with that greasy feeling of it sitting on top of your skin (unless you go into the water shortly after applying of course). It does what it says it does as with my experience there has been no burning while wearing this (apart from those pesky missed spots from time to time!). Also it doesn't irritate mine or my daughter's slightly sensitive skin. I don't tend to use it on my face though as everything else I seem to put on my skin has SPF protection too.
I use this on my arms and legs but not on my face as I find it very greasy. However I do use this on the kids face and body. Has a pleasant smell however I do find that it does need a bit of rubbing to completely rub into you.
I love this sunblock, I have very sensitive skin and have to be extra careful in the sun. Love the pump on this sunblock makes it extra easy to use especially if a bunch of people/kids are using it. Another great thing about this sunblock is it doesn't give you the white ghost appearance, it soaks in well has a nice smell and is also cost effective.
Tips: Always remember to reapply after swimming and follow reapplying rules on bottle. I find that I reapply every couple of hours depending on how much time I'm spending in the sun.
There's so many different sunscreen brands out now. Cancer Society is such a good foundation. When my mum was sick with Cancer they gave lots of support. I wanted to try their products because I know that they are a conpany that gives back to New Zealanders.
I was given a large pump bottle of this sunscreen. It's a sturdy bottle. The plastic thats used is really thick and durable. I found the pump easy to use. The texture of this suncreen is just like a moisturiser. It doesn't leave a white film like other sunscreens do. I like to use it all over my body in Summer. When I swim I do need to re apply more sunscreen. I didn't notice a scent. One bottle lasted me a couple of months.
I believe this suncreen is a great staple to use for a family. Price wise sunscreens can be quite expensive. I notice sales pop up in the off season of summer. Thats when I purchase my sunscreen and stock up for summer. Over all a great item to buy and I will be buying more.
Love it comes in a big family size bottle, great price for the amount you get. Only thing i found was it was quite thick and therefore kinda greasy....this made it quite hard to get onto the kids so soon found ourselves using a separate kids sunscreen for them. Does protect my very sunburn prone skin well in saying that!
Tips: Not great on younger kids but good for adults, just make sure you apply well before you go to allow the thick formula to soak in.
I have the 100ml tube of this 30 SPF lotion. The tube is standard with a flip top and a good size for carrying around in bags, gloveboxes etc.
The lotion is thick and white and squeezes easily out of the tube. You can all of the product out, right to the end, which is a good.
The lotion applies easily, and absorbs into my skin quite slowly, taking a bit of rubbing, but once absorbed, leaves a waxy residue that makes my skin feel protected.
I quite like the scent, it’s not too strong, although I have a personal preference for a coconut scent for suntan products.
I’m not outside for long usually, so I tend not to get too burnt anyway, but this product helps to keep out any burning.
It is a very good product, and at $17.50 from netpharmacy, a pretty good price for products of this type.
Tips: Apply several times throughout the day, just to be sure of full cover.
It's a great sunscreen that definitely does what it's suppose to, great protection, and has a very nice consistency to it. It also rubs into the skin really well and doesn't leave your skin feeling really greasy like a lot of other sunscreens do. Also, great pricing.
