Soltan Once SPF30 Boots

Soltan Once 200ml spf 30 Boots Bought for half price at the time £8.49 rrp is £16.99 spray on

I bought this and a few other sun screens for my holiday in the Canaries, Fuerteventura to be exact, I usually buy  factor 50 for my face/chest and 30 for my body as I  think you really need to be careful with your skin.

This appealed to me as it was a once application for 8 hours I mean who doesnt want to just put sun screen on forget about it and get on with your holiday 99% of us for sure.

I did as per instructed and I rubbed and I rubbed but it never dried so I thought maybe I had over done it, but the next day and the next day was the same you would think that once it was on it would not remain sticky and you would forget about it, well I didnt it irritated the hell out of me and by the end of the week I was so sick of it I nicked my Husbands P20.

Its a white cream and not too thick when you squirted it out so you think its going to be good, Im not a sweaty person so it wasnt like I was covered in sweat when I applied it or put it over previous applications!!

But I will say it did what it said on the bottle I didnt get sun burned although I did have to apply a 50 to my shoulders but im a bit bony so thats probably why.
If you dont mind the stickiness then go for this but when I put a cardi around by shoulders when it got a bit windy I knew when I took it off the cream had rubbed off so be aware of that as you will need to reaply to that area again.

I would give it 5 out of 10 I wont be buying it as at full price its really to expensive there are cheaper ones which I will be checking out for my next summer holiday. I left this in my appartment as I didnt see any point in putting it back in my case.
