Hi Andy,
We are sorry to hear you have suffered with prickly heat while using our Sun Creams.
Our Sun Lotions are all independently tested, and all of our Sun Lotions provide the SPF as advertised.
We have sold thousands of Sun Lotions and haven’t had any complaints regarding this issue in that time.
With all of our Sun Lotions we recommend reapplying every 2 hours and after swimming or heavy perspiration, our sun lotions are water resistant not waterproof and therefore recommend that you cover the skin whilst swimming or during heavy perspiration.
If we assume that the product is OK (i.e. genuine, untampered, not previously opened, etc.) then there are several possible things that could have happened: -
1. Insufficient sun lotion applied.
2. Sun lotion not applied 20-30 minutes before sun exposure
3. Interaction with other skin care products reduced the efficacy of the sunscreens
4. Sensitivity or allergy to one of the ingredients causing sunburn like skin rash
5. The sun lotion has not been applied every 2 hours and after swimming or heavy perspiration
We apologise again for any inconvenience caused.

“This is such great suncream and I can’t recommend it highly enough! I have an allergy to linalool, eczema and sensitive skin and it causes no issues at all. Voor whole family use it. It rubs in easily and has none of the usual “suncream smell” which most have, which I especially like.”

“We took this on holiday to Costa Rica (end of their summer/early autumn) and got horribly burned. It's not water resistance and hard to apply when wet - not at all appropriate when we went rafting on a river. In spite of reapplying regularly, we both got the worst sunburn of our lives. It's maybe ok for low UV intensity in the UK but I won't use it again.”

“V disappointed with this. Too thick (“claggy” was the description a friend who coincidentally had also bought some gave it - accurately i think) slow to dry and gets everywhere - hard to get easily off my swimsuit. Won’t be buying again”

“We use Ethical Consumer to research as we only buy natural, ethical and cruelty free products.
Green People scored high for sunscreen so we purchased SPF30 Sun and After Sun Bundle plus SPF 15 to take with us on our recent holiday to Corfu (May 2022).
Okay, a little more pricer than the
brand generic stuff you can buy at your local supermarket but rather than diss the cost, I'd question why that chemical laden stuff is so cheap - and that do you really want to sink all those nasties into your skin?
We used all the 3 and found them easy to apply, that little goes a long way, and really liked the silky creamy texture. We felt protected and loved the product - 10 days holiday, 2 of us and we still have some left. Tan and skin still looking good 3 weeks later.
What ticked an extra box for us was that it is reef safe and the packaging fully recyclable.
Our now go to for Sunscreen.
Go on buy it - you won't be disappointed.”
