hi all.........go next wednesday...{.have just packed...whoooooo }.....myself & 12 year old daughter going .......so i have quite a few bottles of sun cream , ranging from factor 10 up to 40 (after reading how hot it is at the moment)......how many bottles does everone take? have been buying when they are bogof.....how much is suncream in icmeler?

I took Nivea in factor 20, 12 and then went onto 8 but I tan easily and dont burn. We took the big bottles 500ml im sure they are and used about three of them in the 2 weeks we were there. Better to have more than not enough!

Not sure how much it is in Icmeler but if you did run out theres plenty on offer.

I dont burn, im quite tanned as it is....i like to think of myself as more of a bronzed sexual tyrannasauras

I usually take 4 bottles with me for a fortnight, a higher factor for the first week and a little lower for the second.
Suncream is cheap enough to buy in the bazaars and in supermarkets but you can't guarantee they're the real thing!
If you run out whilst there it's advisable to only buy from a pharmacy (ensure you're buying a genuine product).

We buy 2 bottles of P20 at the airport. Per bottle £19.95 however only apply once a day, like a gel, and easy speads over the body. Only takes 15 minutes to soak in and fully water proof up to 10 hours. New formula, the old one you had to leave for 90 mins before going into the sun, now only 15 mins

cheers for the comments...lucky u who bronze easily (erik) we look like 2 bottles of milk...all be it i) full fat & ii)skinny skimmed......bril idea about buying extra at the airport..as i dont think i could fit anything else into the suitcase (mind you think i have done quite well to stick with one suitcase between us..could open a shop with all the stuff my 12 year old NEEDS)
