Aloe Vera Sun Lotion SPF 25

Have suffered prickly heat and Polymorphic light eruption for many years making most holidays unbearable at times. I have tried many things but nothing seemed to stop this horrible condition from ruining my holidays. Recently went to Turkey and thought I would try this sun cream as the reviews looked promising. It was fantastic! Pleasant smell, rubbed in well with no white residue. Left my skin feeling so soft and hydrated. I was in 30 degree heat every day and didn’t get a single sign of the usual rashes, redness and itching. I actually got a great tan for the first time ever with no burning and more importantly no rashes! Incredible stuff! Just wish it was waterproof as that did become a pain having to re apply after every swim. I would recommend taking 2 tubes for a 7 day holiday as you really do need to keep applying but it’s totally worth every penny for a holiday without the distress of pain and itching!

I don't normally review anything but this product is worth reviewing if you suffer from prickly heat to the extreme. Prickly heat in the past has ruined my holidays it's that bad that they turn into blisters and it hurts! I.'ve tried and tested all sorts of products and came across this one. When the product came it was about 3 months before I was due to go on holiday to Barbados so I tried a sunbed (3mins on a sunbed would normally bring the prickly heat out even the UK summers I suffer) so I tried the cream and 3mins later I was absolutely fine. I decided to use the sunbed once a week running up to my holiday using the sun cream to try and help my skin. I was also using an anti bacterial body wash, something I had read on the internet that could help with pores. For all you sufferers will you understand the great lengths we will go to just to enjoy the sun and be able to relax. When we arrived on our holiday in the past, after the first day I would be seeing the prickly heat emerge and I would be sat inside hiding. But this wow! I enjoyed the sun and the whole of the holiday! We was away for 10days. As I said at the top of this review I suffer to the extreme with blisters so I did come out with spots and a rash on about day 6 but for me this was tolerable. I also bought the afters un too and this helped loads with the irritability. So even though it didn't completely go, for me it wasn't anywhere near has bad and it didn't start showing until at least half way though the holiday.. The temp in Barbados was around 30-32 degrees It is definitely worth a try and not that expensive compared to regular sun creams - I read that anything that is water based which is most sun creams and after sun creams is a total no no.. One other thing to bear in mind is it isn't water resistant so you need to be mindful when you've used the pool or the sea

I am trying to find a sun cream without the harsh chemicals. This one fits the bill nicely. It's a good size, 50SPF and organic with aloe vera. It doesn't have that smell that sunblock typically has, and is less sticky too. The down side is that it doesn't state it's water resistant, so that's something to bear in mind and may mean I don't buy this again.

We absolutely love this sunscreen! We were looking for a healthy alternative to mainstream sunscreen and this is the perfect choice! We tried other brands and the texture was not pleasant. This one has a smooth texture and it penetrates nicely into the skin so it does not leave you with white marks!

Used for the first time last week. Goes on easily, non sticky. Left my skin feeling soft. I chose this due to the natural ingredients and I am pleased with the results so have purchased another bottle/tube.

This sunscreen actually contains synthetic chemical. Dr Organic wrote to me saying on the Amazon website they say in the product description ‘“WE AVOID THE USE OF SYNTHETIC INGREDIENTS’ which I appreciate could be misleading as chemical UV filters are used in the product. “ ALSO look up the ingredients on the web including on the US EWG site and check out Butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane o. This what the first Ai answer on google says “Butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane, also known as avobenzone, is a chemical sunscreen ingredient that can cause side effects like skin irritation, allergic reactions, and potentially contribute to skin cancer or premature aging. Some studies suggest it degrades in the sun, releasing free radicals that damage skin cells. “ Also although it says organic in big letters on the front they say this means they use organic aloe vera in it. I hate it when companies imply their products are healthy like this. We have had it before from them . I would strongly suggest if you like organic and non chemical products avoid.

Vegan product which is great value for money. Nice scent and good coverage. Definitely worth using is you’re vegan and need a dependable sun cream.

I have been battling with prickly heat for years and anyone who suffers from it will know the misery. I have researched and tried all the usual tips - taking antihistamines, washing with Dettol soap, using hydrocortisone cream and testing different sun lotions. All result in a slight improvement to my symptoms but I still suffer quite badly. I then read about organic sun lotions and their lack of harsh chemicals and as they aren't waterproof and don't seal the sweat glands the chances of developing prickly heat are greatly reduced. The reviews for this sun lotion looked optimistic so I was excited to try it on my winter sun holiday. Initially, things were looking very positive. I usually develop prickly heat by day 3 or 4 of my holiday however by the fourth day my skin was clear and calm. However, on day 5 the dreaded 'prickly' sensations started and by day 6 it was confirmed - I had prickly heat much to my disappointment. Overall, this sun lotion had some success in reducing my prickly heat. It appeared to delay the on-set of it and when I did get it, it wasn't as widespread and on all the areas I usually suffer. However, it wasn't the cure I had hoped it. It was a decent sun lotion and I got a nice tan without burning. As it's quite thick it doesn't spread very far and I only just about had enough for the week. As it's not waterproof I felt quite restricted going in the pool/ocean regularly as I didn't want to keep re-applying constantly (I wouldn't have minded this if it had stopped my prickly heat). For these reasons, I probably wouldn't use again. My quest for a cure continues!
