Where can I get factor 30 or 50 sunscreen without wincing at the price? I just want something that blocks the sun and doesn't make me smell like pudding

Posidrive, pudding? . . . have you had a stroke?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Posidrive, what sort of price makes you wince? I'm happy to pay 12€ for Avene in the pharmacy here, but that might have something to do with the fact that it's 18€ in resort.

Posidrive, Balaclava - pretty cheap these days.

I usually get mine from Boots. Wait until they have a bogof offer or better still when they have some in the sale. A couple of years ago I got 6 or 7 assorted tubes for about £15.

A was thinking more of the coconut oil type smell that some have. Have to resist the temptation to lick my face.

Might give this a go. I was balking at 15 quid plus.

Posidrive, No smell, non greasy and water / sweat proof. I'm sure I only paid about £6 for mine (extra sensitive skin) and a bottle lasts me about two years. Even if it degrades a little at that protection level it's still good stuff. I also use it during the summer for cycling and climbing.

Best stuff I ever found was 'BlockHeads' - bought it years ago and am still using it (prob should'nt but it still seems to work). Wasn't expensive when I bought it but the real value came when I didn't have to buy any more for years after i.e. don't worry too much about the initial price - cheap sun blocks just run out quicker/die so you have to keep re-applying/re-buying, quality lasts.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Although the whiteish sun block sticks I bought from Aldi a few years ago are only just running out. A quid each
