Advantages: No scalp burning ammonia or peroxide
Disadvantages: Not very striking results

...Sun in gets a lot of negative press, much of it well deserved. True, some of the stronger versions leave you with a burning scalp, but Sun In lemon is actually a semi-natural product that may not give instant peroxide effects without the chemicals, but will lighten your hair if, as it says in the title and on the box, you are willing to let your hair dry in the sun. Lemon is best on fair to light brown hair, which will turn an almost convincing chade of blonde with 2 or 3 applications and a few half hours spent out in the sun. Definitely a product for the summer but worth a shot, especially for kids.... Read review

Advantages: Cheap!
Disadvantages: Big Headlines!

...Don't you just get sick of stereotypes? Ask a non-Sun reader about The Sun and they'll mention page 3, the low intelligence of the readers and the oh-so-witty headlines. Wrong. Although The Sun does have a reputation, it does so much good work too. Not everyone likes to read a paper full of stocks and shares and information about cigars and the nearest cafe mocha bar. The Sun campaigned for peoples rights, look at their support over the fuel crisis, and normally give an unbiased view towards politics. True, it is hardly the most difficult paper to read, but if you want the news, some light-hearted banter and interesting articles over your lunch, then The Sun should win every time.... Read review

Advantages: © Protects skin from sunburn. freckles, wrinkles and skin cancer ©
Disadvantages: © always leaves a small amount of creme every time you close cap ©

...© Don't hide away your skin © Our skins cannot be over exposed to the sun… that's why we have to protect it but we don't need to hide it away from the sun we just need to save it from any harm by the sun… and what better way to do that by using Clinique Sun-Care Face Sun Block. © Summer's here © As summer is here and the world is getting hotter and hotter by the year, which means that our skins have more chance of getting over exposed to the sun and possibly burnt. Which is why I am recommending you all to use Clinique Sun-Care Face Sun Block. This sun block has an SPF of 30, which means that it protects your skin from the sun by 30 times. Which is extremely high- especially for this part of England because our skins do not need as much protection as in other countries; this is why SPF 30 is very high and will protect your skin from...

Advantages: moisteriser and UV protecter in one!
Disadvantages: none what so ever!

...This must be the best saver from the sun i have ever used in my whole whole life. It was very mositerising and i actually felt protected by the sun. It was very water resistant so didn't wash off leaving me UV protected from the sun for the whole day. The smell is glorious and remindes you of old child hood holidays to the sea. I can't wait for my next holiday just so i can put on some of this fantastic sun cream. It's creamy, soft, silky and smooth all in one cream. It's a great value for money and keeps the whole family protected! It absorbs really easily and makes you feel clean and fresh too! It stays on your skin even after toweling for extra protectant! GREAT SUN CREAM!!... Read review

Advantages: Cheaper than other brands
Disadvantages: None

...When looking for sun protection, one is presented with shelves and shelves of mysterious looking lotions and potions: Sun Tan lotion, Sun Block, After Sun, Tanning Lotion... all at extortionate prices, some in excess of £10 for a small bottle of the big brand stuff. Thats why I chose Solait from Superdrug. Cheap, simple, effective. ~*~Packaging~*~ A stunning bright yellow bottle (my favourite colour, so I'm biased in this section). I chose the small 200ml bottle which fits comfortably into your hand, and is just the right size to fit into a small beach bag which holds those few summer essentials: bikini, sunglasses, sun block. Has an unusual gold splodge near the top of the bottle, I think this is supposed to look like a sun. Has the words 'SOLAIT 25' written in blue writing with 'Sun Protection LOTION' written underneath. The bottle... Read review

Advantages: cool, moisture and refreshed
Disadvantages: could be more of a fragrence

...This product relies more on natural ingredients to help calm the pain instead of chemicals,Even though they are in ther , there is also avocado, seaweed and of course watermelon to help cool your skin temperature which increases tremendously when burnt. Then it works to replace the moisture that is lost or dried out by the sun. It is essential that aftersun is put on after you ahve been in the sun even if you havent burnt as your skin is still cooking after you have left the sun.The water melon gives a cooling refreshing feeling to the skin which is a great bbost for it....

Advantages: easy to use
Disadvantages: none

...I have medium brown hair and have often used sun in to lighten it. The main reason being the ease of use, ie you just spray it in and then either go outside in the sun or use a hair dryer and wait for the results!! I wouldnt dare go to the hairdressers and get it bleached as would be scared it would be too drastic!! Sun in gives you the power to decide how much you want to lighten it and the result is excellent and really natural, I have also never had problems with dry or brittle hair after using it. And would certainly recommend it.... Read review

Advantages: Cheap and free Boobs thrown in
Disadvantages: Only one a day is allowed

...I think that the page 3 Girls are just a scratch on the surface with the Sun, sure they have dramatic eye catching one liner headlines. This is all just a facade of what really goes on behind the minds of those journalists. They have to be really intelligent to come up with those puns, just look at the Genius behind them (remember Big Breakfast - they always had the pun down). plus dont forget its vheap how often have you been going off to work and looking for something stimulating to read on that 1 hour long ride to work. Well the Sun does it for me - You dont have to be Genius but it helps.... Read review

Advantages: good stories
Disadvantages: page 3

...The Sun is the best selling newspaper in Britain. It is a tabloid paper, but I like to keep up-to-date with all the latest scandal and big stories. The Sun is only 30p which isn't much for all the information in it, and the journalists come up with the best news. The front headlines always make me buy it and apart from the page 3 which me being a girl hates looking at, the rest is good. Dear Deidre is the Sun's agony aunt which is a part of the magazine and there is also your Bizarre Column, which features all the latest celebrity gossip, I love to read that page as I love music gossip. There is the usual sports pages and the most popular headlines in the last 3 weeks have been the Big Brother ones. The ones titled 'Will Helen and Paul go for it' and the one 'Only 2 days to do it', now that Helen is out she has been... Read review

Advantages: prolongs your tan, cheap,
Disadvantages: can leak, cold when it goes on your body

...I am going on holiday in just over 2 weeks, so I went out shopping for sun oil protection and after sun. The after sun I got was Calypso after sun spray. Calypso after sun spray comes in a 250ml clear bottle with a blue pump action lid. The after sun itself is a light blue colour, which is what makes it stand out and eye catching. On front of the bottle is blue with a sun above the word Calypso. It's quite a plain bottle to look at. Once you have used this spray a while, the lid seems to fall off all the time, so I just leave it off. This could be dangerous though, if a child gets hold of the lid and puts it in there mouth. To use this after sun, spray on all areas that have been exposed to the sun and rub in gently. I do not always rub it in though as it soaks in really quickly and it works just the same. You should apply... Read review
