Advantages: All day protection and suitable for children Disadvantages: None
Overview
I was introduced to P20 by my mum who cannot use most regular sun creams but comes out in prickly heat every time she goes in the sun. She's been using it for years and recommended it to me when I went to Greece.
I was unsure whether the bottle (200mls) would last me a fortnight but using it every day it just about did. At this time you had to use it 90 mins before going in the sun so I just put it on every morning. I never reapplied it ... ...and I never burnt. Fantastic.
Packaging / contents The sun filter comes in a white packet with a red, orange and white large stripe across the top. The bottle inside contains an oily liquid that you spread evenly across any exposed skin and it forms a bond with your skin which means it is "90% effective even after swimming" (Riemann's website).
Use
One bottle (100mls) should last one adult for a 2 week holiday. The new formula only needs applying ...

Advantages: Peace of mind. No burning, mild tanning Disadvantages: Price, unfamiliarity
On planning our recent trip to Turkey one thought was uppermost in my mind. We were taking my 13 year old step daughter who has never been out of England and therefore not used to the intense sun abroad, and who is fair and prone to burning. At home she uses factor 25 or 30, never burns, but never tans either. Like all 13 year old girls she wanted to come back from her holiday with a tan.
I had never heard of Rieman P20 but a kindly neighbour told ... ...it a go.
The 200ml bottle doesn't seem very big for the £19.98 I paid in Asda but nevertheless I bought it and packed it away in the suitcase.
For the first couple of days we were very wary of it but luckily the weather was quite cloudy and that helped. I could not believe it was possible to apply this lotion once a day, go swimming and not have to re-apply. We were pleasantly surprised at the result, Louise was not burning at all, although it ...

Advantages: You know that you and you children are well protected from the sun Disadvantages: It is quite expensive - but worth it !!!
I first saw P20 suncream on a television channel. They made it so hard to believe that I just had to give it a go. At £16:00 for 200ml I thought it was quite expensive but still had to buy some. It really did sound too good to be true. You apply it 90 minutes before you intend to go out and it lasts 24 hours. No reapplying is needed, not even if you go swimming. My 3 boys were out in the summer on one of the rare hot days that we had and while their ... ...it was absolutly fabulous!!!! All my friends wanted to know where I had bought it and have since all bought their own. Other than on the shopping channel (QVC) I have seen smaller bottles of it in Tescos and good chemists, 100mls for £11:95. I have since ordered 2 more bottles of it. It certainly gave me a piece of mind knowing that my children were so well protected against the sun. This is definately the best and most effective suncream that I ...

Advantages: Great protection, no reapplying :D Disadvantages: smells funny, stains clothing when wet
P20 is the best thing since sliced bread!
A work colleague recommended the product to me as we sell it at my place of work. I first used it in Turkey last year. I put it on every morning and left it for the time it stated and went out and sunbathed all day. I went in the pool, I went in the sea, i put clothes on and I took clothes off. Not once did i waste any of my holiday reapplying sun cream and I did not get burnt once or have any issues with ... ...roses and it will stain pretty much anything while it is wet, so i advise applying this in your birthday suit in the mornings. Please ensure you leave it for a good 2 minutes before sun exposure or getting it wet for it to work effectively. Also make sure you don’t miss any skin when you apply it as if you miss any then you will burn badly. With sun cream if you miss somewhere the 1st time you will most likely get it the second or third time round ...
