Uvistat SPF30 Sun Cream

Being half greek I was the one who got great tans on holiday no skin issues whatsoever then in my 40's suddenly developed what I was initially told was prickly heat but after a few years and a hospital visit diagnosed Polymorphic Light Eruption.....my arms mainly and sometimes my chest would ve ok for 2 days in the sun but by day 3 I would get maybe 6 spots on each arm that itched like mad the next day would be about 30 until the arms were covered in blister type spots and you would not believe hiw itchy it was, I'd be in tears and tried everything, anti histamines,steroids, different sun lotions even one from America costing £60 and nothing worked I was so fed up....I was even pulled out of the check in line at Palma airport to ask if it was infectious and people moving away from me. .then a few weeks ago got it again at home gardening and a friend said the doctors can prescribe this for PLE so I just ordered from here and have been able to sit in the sun with not one spot or itch........it will make a huge difference to my life, you only need a tiny bit to apply and if you rub in properly its not that white although i didnt care if it was!! So if you have PLE try this it is a godsend and I'm so happy!

I have red hair and very fair skin that burns within a few minutes of being in the sun. Uvistat is the only sun cream I have found that actually works. You can feel it block the heat instantly, and you know when it stops working because you immediately feel your skin get very hot - that is when to reapply the cream. Before this became available I couldn't go out in the sun. It changes your life! Any factor number of Uvistat works equally well - you just have to reapply sooner with a lower number. I have never had sunburn since I started using it. Great for babies and kids - you can trust it.

My daughter is albino and struggles with the sun, I have tried all creams to help but this is one of the best so far

I have really sensitice skin. Most suncreams burn when i apply them. This doesnt. So far so good. Great sun protection too.

We were recommended uvistat on holiday a few years ago by a pharmacist as my kids have sensitive skin and have a reaction with most sun creams. Uvistat has stopped any reactions and doesn't block skin pores so is a brilliant product.

While Uvistat offers great protection it is not as easy to apply and can appear patchy and unabsorbed.

This suncream worked very well and did not irritate my sensitive skin. It is much less greasy than many suncreams - it leaves your skin looking more dry than oily, and almost as if you have applied light-coloured make-up! As with many suncreams, it did stain the edges of my light-coloured tops (the instructions did warn against getting it near clothing, but of course you have to apply it to all exposed skin for protection). Overall, I would recommend - although it is fairly expensive, it gave good protection and I gained a light tan with no burning.

First time in years had no reaction to sun.
