The lotion absorbs quickly into the skin and has the ideal consistency of a body lotion.

“One of Soltan's best sun creams,”

★★★★☆

written by RiaKatoka on 20/03/2021

The UVA star rating system shows how much protection a product has, with five stars being the highest level. This is one of Soltan's best sun creams, simply for its ease of use. The stick-style method of application will make it easy to quickly covers your kids' faces before they dash off again, giving them all-day protection from the sun.

“It's an effective sun cream.”

★★★★☆

written by ZahraArmel on 26/11/2020

so it's effective sun cream.the product should be used within 12 months and 18 months of it being opened. When it comes to sun creams it's important not to ignore the advice. After the expiry date, the active ingredients begin to decompose and can become inactive and ineffective

“Simply for its ease of use”

★★★★☆

written by DionCruz on 07/11/2020

This is one of Soltan's best sun creams, simply for its ease of use. ... The 5 UVA stars and 50+ SPF means the cream will keep them completely safe from the sun, but it's always important to pair sun cream with other methods of sun protection like hats and clothes

★★★★★

written by Aaron_Levis on 03/10/2020

Salton Sun Lotion is the best lotion. Results are perfect and excellent. I am using this lotion for a year and it is great. Quality and quantity are great and worth the money. It helps to protect the skin during summer. Recommended.

“Had an allergic reaction to this lotion ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by oyNeville125 on 05/08/2019

I had quiet a bad allergic reaction to this cream whilst on holiday this year! I’m aware this wouldn’t happen to everyone, but think it should be noted that it happened to me and after changing the lotion I was using all symptoms resolved. It followed the trend of a typical mild allergic reaction, hives on the skin which then went itchy and irritated then my eye became swollen and I was unable to see, thankfully it didn’t extend any further! This was a bit of a downer on the holiday as it took me a few days to recover fully! And for all those who will say “are you sure it was the lotion”, yes. Firstly, I am a medical student and understand what an allergic reaction looks like and how to treat it appropriately. Also, I didn’t wear any other products on my skin which were different to normal other than the cream.

“Useless product left me sunburnt ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 204Gentry on 13/08/2017

Easy to apply but doesn't protect at all. The factor 50 left me very sunburnt I will never use any Soltan products again. I spent most of my first week covered up under a sun shade in pain. Does not do what it says on the label! Very disappointing and seriously concerned about the damage to my skin. I am very careful in the sun as I have a fair skin and I have never been sunburnt before. Disgusted that this product is being sold. Buyer beware, seriously you cannot trust this product to protect your skin from the sun.

“What has happened to Soltan sensitive suncream ?”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 11/08/2017

I have used soltan sensitive sun cream for many years so naturally bought it for this years holiday, imagine how I felt when after re-applying it as you should it went into elastic like blobs on my skin and also transferred to my swimsuit, which I then had to wash really carefully to get the white residue off. that wasn't the worst though because I have used it over the years to stop prickly heat which it did but I don't know if it has been changed but my prickly heat flared up. I stopped using it for both of these reasons, can anyone explain . I will no longer be buying this product.

“Worst cream ever”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Kalebg40 on 12/08/2016

I bought solan sun lotion factor 15 because it had 5 stars. I was told it was one of the best on the market by a boots assistant. Taking her advice I bought 4 lotions and the hair protection product too. When I got on holiday and used the lotion, the first application was fine but when I re-applied after drying off from coming out the pool, it was absolutely disgusting, the cream from underneath the second application went all lumpy and the more I tried to rub it in the worse it got, so needless to say I had to then put out the expense of buying new suncream on holiday which is not cheap. Not a happy customer at all.

“Burnt all over ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Zoey111 on 05/04/2016

I am really disappointed to say that, despite following all guidance for application both the solan SPF15 and SPF30 have led to sunburn on two of us whilst on holiday. Red blotchy patches of burn all over regardless of the fact we applied regularly and once we had been in the water. I have chosen to use soltan this year as it is cheaper than creams I usually use and also boasts an admirable level of uva/uvb protection. I have relied heavily on other products in very many years of travelling and never been left so sunburnt across my entire body. It is essential that Boots sort this as it is not only ruining holidays but also posing B a potential dangerous lobg term issue.

So glad to have my concerns confirmed. We have just arrived back from Spain after one week in the sun highest temp 26 degrees and my husband and I are full of red blotchy patches of burn of which I have never experienced in forty years of sunbathing. First and last time will ever use this brand of suncreams again. Boots seriously need to look into ingredients/chemicals in this cream.

“SPF 30 burnt all over!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Dariani156 on 04/03/2016

DO NOT BUY! We applied this lotion correctly, reapplied regularly including after going in the water, and are left with red patches and sunburn all over. It is also very irritating to the face. Not only is it not water resistant, it is not sweat resistant which is ridiculous for a sun tan lotion. Any sort of sweat or even movement renders it useless. This is not protective and is damaging, and Boots should not be allowed to advertise it as a sun tan lotion. It is a runny white ineffective cream.

“HORRENDOUS!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Avah481 on 22/09/2014

Don't, Don't, Don't buy this if you want to wear your clothes more than 'Once'. On arriving home from holiday with all my 'Soltan Once' stained clothes, I tried to remove the dirty yellow staining with a wash in stain remover in the washing machine. The staining was still there and so I tried actually bleaching the previously, white garments. DISASTER as this turned all the original 'Soltan' staining BRIGHT PINK. I finally ( as a last resort ) washed on the hottest wash with a MUG FULL of washing powder. After the longest wash of about 2 HOURS the stains finally disappeared. This experience was not stress free as most of these clothes were brand new. I have been into the Boots store where this product was purchased and the manager assures me that he will pass on the comment that this useless, expensive and damaging chemical should be taken off the market.
