Looks like Amazon for meeeee to, as no where had it in town, one place had factor 15 anti allergy for £15 ppfftttt I say to that.

I always use Ebay, never think of Amazon either.

P 20 is one of the best lotions you can use.
We have been using this now for numerous years
. It's great only having to apply once a day. it's not greasey and does not go all over your clothes.
pip wrote:hi all,

going over on the 20th june for 2 weeks :D normally use spray on oil, there seems to be alot of offers on p20 and piz buin one day applications has anybody used these?

Good and bad infomation would be great.

I have fair skin which goes a darker white more than brown :oops: , normally use factor 15 week 1 and factor 8 week 2, dont really burn.

Will be running around after our 15 month old this year so want something easy to use on me while not having to worry about re-applying lotion, as keeping our son well coated will take up most my time :D
thanks in advance...........

ps. i know this is not directly about icmeler, cheers.
:D

Does P20 have UVA as well as UVB protection? and is it absorbed easily?

Message for Dragon: Yes the P20 does have UVA protection but I think its only 3 stars as opposed to Piz Buin which I think is 5*. I use both in icmeler. I have used P20 for a few years now and think its a great product., no burning at all and end up with a tan. Hope this helps.

Thanks for that Mulley. Once a day application sounds great especially if it has UVA and UVB.

Hope no-one uses the coconut oil as you will 'roast' in the sun even in a few minutes in the Turkish heat. Going back to the 80s people used to smother themselves in coconut oil and lie on aluminium foil. A recipe for skin cancer :(
