Advantages: Works instantly, smells great & good for skin
Disadvantages: You always want more.

Being fair, I burn very easily, so I received this in a multi pack of items and at first I thought it would just help with the wrinkles, as there is not alot on the market to help with the pain and tightness of sunburn, but this is a pot of magic for sunburn and dry sun damaged skin. It smells divine and has a mousse-like texture. You do not need much and you only use it on the sun burnt parts of your body. As soon as you use a pea size amount on ...
...you can rub it in, pat it in or smooth it in and leave to sink in, it sinks in, in its own time, if it is absorbed quickly then you might need to add a bit more, it relieves all the symtoms that the sun can give. Its not cheap at around £28 - £35 a jar, however you only use it where you need it. It also prolongs the tan and leaves your skin feeling smooth. The only down side is that you will want to use it all over your body and that it would work ... Read review

Advantages: Beauty points included
Disadvantages: The smell, colour of the tan, leaky bottle

...expected more with this item. Gatineau are a top name in skin care and you can normally guarantee the products quality, but upon receiving my self tan spray I found that the spray action was easy, just aim and spray. Do not try and use the bottle on any kind of angle to get to those out of reach places, as it just leaked out of the nozzle, so not a lot of good if you live on your own.. and I was not brave enough to turn upside down to do my back ...
...spray tan. Gatineau have still included the beauty passport points on the back of this bottle, which is the only good point really. (Gatineau use the beauty passport scheme to enable customers to collect the points and then send of for items free when they have collected a certain amount) ... Read review

Advantages: Ligth, non greasy and easy to apply.
Disadvantages: Slightly expensive

...as there is daylight. Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Face cream with an SPF of 50 may seems crazy to some but it does works. Shiseido which is a Japanese branded skin care product have been around for many years and have a good reputation for their research and development. As a person who tan easily, the Shiseido sun protection cream with its SPF 50 have given me the protection against sun burnt and pigmentation. The white cream is not very ...
...even skin cancer. Though the Shiseido sun protection cream is not cheap but in the long run it is more cost effective. You only need to apply the cream once in the day and it will provide the protection for the whole day. Shiseido Sun Protection face cream with SPF 50 is my recommendation for a good suncare face cream. Shiseido Sun Protection face cream can be purchased from most high street department store and it is retailed at about £24. ... Read review

Advantages: easy to apply, absorbs well, good protection
Disadvantages: goes runny in the heat.

...as i have got a boots card and have heard that it is one of the only ones with 5 star uva protection. On my recent holiday I took factors 40 and 15 as I was ussure of the weather The product comes in a bright yellow bottle and I chose the 200ml size, although I am sure you can get a larger size as well. I prefer the squeeze dispenser to the spray as I had difficulty in aiming the spray. The cream is easily applied and is not too greasy and absorbs ...
...On a slightly negative note it claims to come with insect repellent, however, I would not definitely say this part of the cream works as I was still bitten. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend boots Soltan and lets face it you can collect points at the same time. ... Read review

Advantages: Moisturises
Disadvantages: No sun protection

Hawaiian Tropic Dark tanning oil The product I am reviewing is the SPF0 rather than the one shown on the picture which is SPF 6 This product contains no sunscreen and is SPF 0. Therefore, rather than this being a sun protection product it is in fact a moisturiser for in the sun. THE PROMISES... *Formulated with exotic moisturising ingredients *Contains natural skin conditioners *Vitamins A, C, E *Tan of the Island" coconut fragrance with mango, ...
...the distinct promised smell of Hawaiian tropic sun products- all floral and coconut. It definitely reminds me of holidays in the sun. The oil itself is, as expected, an oil, and when I apply it to my skin, it leaves a definite layer of oil on my skin. It's not sticky when I feel it on my skin but for anyone venturing to the beach, the sand will stick to it, which for me is a very unpleasant experience. After the oil is applied, it does soak slightly ... Read review
