Sunscreen recommendations

I always use a well known/long established moisturising one (not sure if I'm allowed to name brand) and always go for high factor; and I also always wear a wide brimmed hat if I'm going to be out for any amount of time, was advised about that by a Macmillan nurse.

.

Thank you, definitely will wear the hat he does anyway and usually wears sunscreen but just worried that his usual well

lnow brand is perfumed and may irritate so just wondering what’s best

thank u

I did use U....sun which is for the face and is for very sensitive skin but actually I still find my usual sunscreen is OK.   It may be a matter of trIal and error I'm afraid.  

Good luck.

Hi my treatment finished last Aug and have been to Spain 4 times including 3  weeks ago heatwave st 43 degrees plenty of factor 50 mixed with s bit of false tan fir neck with a wide brimmed hat and on beach  in shade all the time apart from when in sea. I also rode my bike every day again factor 50 and always had a buff in pocket in case I felt the sun but am perfectly ok just be sensible factor 30 arms n legs factor 50 everywhere else I used the ambre solaire ones  for sensitive skin

Any old factor 50 for me

i also always carry a thin buff. They come in multi colours and go with anything. I think I got six from Amazon for a tenner. Just slip it over my head and it covers my neck if it’s getting too hot

Just adding here to check the bottles for the UVA rating as well as the UVB factor 30 or 50 rating, I always go for factor 50 and 5* UVA but I’m a fair skinned melanoma patient on a drug that can make me sensitive to sunlight. Which have done a review of some
