The time has come again to be buying our family sun care products. Last year, we went on holiday and for the first time we used a spray for the general sun protection. It was so good that instead of the usual cream ones we get for our faces we have gone for this.-APPLICATION-So easy to put on! Flip the lid off and spray on. Smells nice but only slightly perfumed but the main thing for us is that you don't have to rub it in. It is as simple as that, spray and leave. Close your eye's, spray from about 15cm and you are done. This isn't a powder however so it does take a few seconds to dry on you.When you have kids, it is more a case of getting the stuff on them before they run off to enjoy themselves. The recommendation is also that you reapply frequently, especially after swimming or towelling, which is pretty much common sense.-EFFECTIVENESS-Well, for me, this was the best I've ever used (and my wife used to make me wear Clinique facial sun care). That may not be down to how good it is though, it may be more to do with it being so much easier to apply that I was happy to do it as often as required as opposed to cream/oil that you squeeze out. The kids were more than happy to be sprayed with it as often as required as well because they didn't have to stand there for 5 minutes while Mummy or Daddy rubbed cream/oil into them until it had disappeared.-CONCLUSION-Not the cheapest sun care product but non of the inconvenience of applying oil, unscrewing the top, putting it into your hand, rubbing it in etc. etc.In addition, my wife says that with oil/cream, once opened they only have a life of 12 months, not the case with this as it is always sealed!This product is a winner and I have no problem in recommending it (especially as I am just ordering more).I rate it 10/10
