Sun Sprays help, Nivea more

Advantages: Read the Review
Disadvantages: Price, requies frequent application

...around a beach dressed like a hi fi executive, to be protected against the sun simply because this is a ridiculous idea. But he matter of factly refered to use something, may be a lotion or even a sun spray to take care of that! Do you know what I did? I looked for some useful stuff just here at ciao, because I have some reasonably good reviews published up here and number of people said that their reviews are generally unbiased and best of to is that, they all review it with a good bit of personal experience. I read as many helpful reviews as possible on these types of products. Ultimately my girl friend, and me decided on Nivea Sun Spray factor 10. We took an average and found that the Nivea Sun Spray factor 10 seemed to be the best. Now the problem is getting it. We got hold of factor 2, factor 8 and even factor 15 but not 10. As...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

Spray Safe with Nivea Sun Spray!

Advantages: Nice bottle, easy to use, absorbed well.
Disadvantages: A little expensive unless bought on a deal.

...I love this product mainly because I am LAZY and if I am out in the sun it is usually on a beach where I would rather be having fun than slathering sun cream on! A quick and effortless way of protecting yourself from sun burn and sun damage, which with my fair skin makes it a vital product! This is a simple but great design. The ergonomic bottle is easy to hold, even with slippery hands and the spray lets out a generous burst of lotion that is easily rubbed into your skin. Because it's quicker and easier to use, you're more likely to bother applying it and I can imagine it's also a plus for impatient children who would rather squirm away and dive into the sea! I bought a bottle of this a couple of years ago and since I don't see too much sun here in the UK, I still have ample amounts left. I purchased it half-price on offer and it has...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

Nivea Sun Childrens Sun Spray

Advantages: water resistant, coloured initially, easy grip bottle, smells nice, works well, easy to apply
Disadvantages: runs out fast, slightly too runny, stains white clothing

...This product is specifically designed for children, it provides a very high level of protection against UVA and UVB rays (factor 40), claims to be extra water resistant and suitable for children's delicate skin as well as being coloured so that you can see where it has been applied (to avoid missing bits!). All of the above reasons made this sun spray seem like an ideal one to use on my little brother on our holiday. Nivea is a brand that I have always used and never had a problem with, so when I saw that tescos were selling two 200ml spray bottles for just £10, I brought this factor 40 kids product for my bother and a bottle of nivea sun spray factor 20 for the rest of us. As soon as we were at our hotel in Crete my brother wanted to be in the pool so it seemed the ideal time to test the water resistance of the sun spray as...

Review of Nivea Sun Childrens Sun Spray

A REFRESHING SPRAY THAT DOES A JOB WELL

Advantages: works brilliantly and it refreshs
Disadvantages: Exspensive

...Doesen't the sun just make everyone happy!!?? It brightens up the day and gets you a great tan too, we're not really used to it all over here, living in the UK we're lucky to get a week of sun. however over the last few months we've had many days of sun and I've noticed I've got rather brown this summer. (And I haven't been abroad yet!) Trouble is, the sun can harm us as we all know, but how many of us really wear sun and protective cream!? Not many, I don't usually wear the stuff, but having a mum that nags on about it all the time, I usually put a little on to please her. This summer I was really glad to find my mum had bought somethimg a little different from sun cream, sure it was sun cream but it was a spray sun cream. Instead of the big blobs of cream all over me, now I just spray this on me, it's rather a misty spray so is...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

SOOTHING SENSUAL SPRAY

Advantages: Easy to apply, cools the skin and mosturises
Disadvantages: dangerous top to the bottle, hands get slippery when applying, smell of cocnut is not everyones cup of tea

...OK guys and gals, hands up - who got burnt to a crisp over the weekend???? Yep yep yep hands appearing all over the place. I must confess that even after writing an op about sun protection the other day, I neglected to put it on yesterday when I took the dog out! Alright so it wasn't blistering sunshine at 8 yesterday morning, it was sunny, but a little chilly with a lovely breeze, BUT I still got slightly burnt! Not third degree burns - but slightly scorched all the same. I have tried over the years a number of after sun products, that claim all sorts of weird and wonderful things, make your skin glow - it is glowing enough to fry eggs already thanks! Those that cool you down instantly (they don't), those that alleviate the burning and prolong your tan - I have yet to find one as good as Calypso after sun spray.It doesn...

Review of Calypso After Sun Spray

sun moon and stars

Advantages: wonderful subtle aroma
Disadvantages: no bath foam or shower gel in range

...Today I feel like reviewing one of my favourite perfumes. This was given to me by my man in a romantic moment. He chose it purely for the name and the bottle. Not the most scientific method but he dropped lucky with this one. I have a very sensitivre and acidic skin which reacts badly with some of the base notes and fixatives, even in expensive perfumes, for example the whole Estee Lauder range of perfumes smell disgusting on me, as do Avon perfumes. Because of this I always test first as there are many nasty surprises for me in the perfume world. Sun, Moon and Stars ≈?≈?≈?≈?≈?≈?≈?≈?≈?≈?≈ The bottle is lovely ;it is spherical dark blue glass which has a raised pattern of a sun embossed into it. The cap is gold and on American bottles there is a gold collar...

Review of Karl Lagerfeld Sun Moon Stars Eau De Toilette Spray for Her

Sun in a bottle

Advantages: Does not irritate in sun, lovely fragrance
Disadvantages: Short-lived initial fragrance

...How would you describe the smell of the sun? What words would you use to explain what summer smells like? The fragrance Jil Sander Sun is intended to be evocative of summer; in fact the blurb used by the company says that it is "a fragrance which breathes sun" and mentions concepts such as passion, playful seduction and vitality. I am not sure whether I would make those allusions in connection with my thoughts on summer but I do believe that Jil Sander Sun is, indeed, a very summery fragrance. The reasons for this fragrance being "summery" are threefold. First, it is a light but multi-layered scent that is not too heavy for summer wear. Then there are the notes that individually and in combination are quite evocative of summer. Finally, this fragrance is described as non-photoxic which essentially means that it does not contain...

Review of Jil Sander Sun Eau De Toilette Spray

A spray above the rest.

Advantages: No burnt skin!
Disadvantages: Expensive

...So the warmth of summer is quickly approaching once again. And, again, frantic dashing to the shops to get those last minute things will take place. So let me make one thing easier for you - your suntan lotion. Now we all know that, due to the vast choice, when you go into a shop for suncream without knowing which one you want it could be winter before you leave! Aisles burst with various priced and sized bottles, sprays and lotions, colours and brands. So how are we expected to knoe which one to choose and which will protect us the best? Well last year i was in this same predicament - and so i pretty much just wne tfor the first one i found, namely Nivea spray. As i had heard of, and used, Nivea before as a body lotion and deodorant, i figured that if the standard was the same then i would be fine. The first issue was the price...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

What can I say...nothing...just spray...

Advantages: Amazing
Disadvantages: Bit pricey

...I truly despise all types of sun tan lotion. I'm 15 and when on holiday just hate the idea of having to rub in some really 'gooey' sun tan lotion, which does not rub in and when it eventually does, it leaves a horrible sticky feeling on your skin and smells absolutely foul! Well that is my opinion anyway! I mean I know all about the risk of skin cancer, but it is such an ordeal just so you can walk around in the sun for an hour before applying some more on! But, when my mum came home from the supermarket with some of this Nivea Sun Tan Lotion Spray which she had got at a bargain of buy one get one free, I was still dubious. I had no choice of course about using it, but for once I will admit I was completely wrong! This Nivea sun spray is so easy to use, it's efficiency is amazing! It is just so easy to spray it lightly around...

Disadvantages: -

...is a German fashion designer who is famous for her elegant, understated creations, her fine fragrances and her excellent make-up collections. The +60 fashion designer has actually made a come-back after handing her fashion house over to another major design house, and celebrated her comback, not only with a new collection, but also with a new fragrance 'Pure'. Her probably most popular fragrance is 'Sun' and was created in 1989. Not only is the fragrance available in the form of an Eau de Toilette, there is also body lotion, shower gel, deodorant spray, deo roller, body fragrance, glittering hair spray, lip gloss and a limited edition sparkling eau de toilette. I had never heard of this perfume (or smelled it for that matter) until I moved to Switzerland from Canada. In Germany, it is one of the most popular scents, and here in...
