CETAPHIL SUN SPF 50+ LOTION #TBT REVIEW

Having just re-purchased this sun lotion I thought I would re-post
my original review from a year ago for todays #TBT Review.
I have updated the price below and I was shocked to see that the
current price has increased by R100 in 12 months.
Fortunately CLICKS currently have a 3for2 offer on 
Cetaphil Sun and Skincare


~~~~~~


Suncream is, hands down, the most crucial skincare product to add to your 
daily regime, as suncreen helps to prevent premature ageing caused
 by the sun and most importantly the use of a daily suncreen can help
 prevent the formation of certain cancers.

When selecting a suncreen always opt for 
a SPF 30+ or higher and one that is a broad spectrum 
(one that incorporates both UVA & UVB protectors)

It's that time of year "The Holidays" in South Africa, where the many sun 
creams are brought out from the depths of the cupboard and slathered 
over our children, hubbies and ourselves.
Firstly check to see if it still has a valid expiry date, as suncreams once 
opened can vary and last between 12 -36 months.
If a suncream smells rancid toss it.



I have a new one to try out this summer from the drugstore
Cetaphil Sun SPS 50+ Lotion 
and I can assure you its been needed with the long days of blue clear skies 
and temperatures rising to 30c+.
 
Here is a brief rundown of the Cetaphil brand:
Cetaphil® is a skincare brand recommended by dermatologists for over
 70 years, and is still used today by millions of people with sensitive skin
 from all over the world.

The original product, called Cetaphil® Gentle Cleansing Lotion, was invented 
by a pharmacist in 1947 specifically for dermatological needs. 
The product quickly became popular, and today, generations later, it’s called Cetaphil® Gentle Skin Cleanser.
 While the name has changed, the formula has remained essentially the same
and Gentle Skin Cleanser remains a worldwide favourite and Cetaphil's
 best-selling product.

Cetaphil® 
today offers a product line that includes face and body moisturisers, cleansers,
 baby care, sun care and products for common skin issues 
and daily skincare. 
Across its different offerings, Cetaphil® is committed to providing users with effective yet gentle skincare formulas that strengthen and protect even the
 most sensitive skin.






The Cetaphil SPF 50+ contains:
Photostable UV filters that offer a highly effective UVA and UVB protection.
Liposomal lotion makes it possible to evenly spread sunscreen on face 
and body for high UV protection

Its also:
Hypoallergenic
Very water-resistant in both fresh water and saltwater
Fragrance free, paraben free
Suitable for sensitive skin
&
Won’t block pores

This high protection SPF has been a hit with the whole family for all 
the reasons above and I have a fussy bunch.
Being a lotion it is quite runny, spreads well yet doesn't leave
any greasy film on the skin and above all...none of us got sunburnt. 

I personally only used the lotion on my body as I have another high
SPF for my face, but i'm sure it works just as well.

As with all SPF's apply liberally 15-20 minutes before sun exposure.
Re-apply every 2 hours, especially after swimming or towelling. 
Avoid contact with eyes.
