Can you buy P20 in US?

I daren't risk buying it from ebay, Bargainqueen, as my daughter can only use the original one so unless I see it on the box it's false economy, if she can't use it.

excuse my ignorance but what is P20?

Once day sun filter, excellent!
It bonds with your skin and does not need reapplication unless you wash it off with hot water and soap.

We use this even in desert heat and have never burned[msnsmile]

I've been using this for many years, I can't use normal suncream as my skin comes up like bubble wrap. No problems with this except that I sometimes miss a spot on the back of my shoulders if I'm applying it myself and I get a weird shape sunburn. You have to apply it at least an hour before you go into the sun and it can stain fabric. My husbands white golf socks get stained but I wash them by hand first before putting them into machine and it comes off.

My four containers didn't come in boxes so I don't know if it's original or the new formula (ingredients - alcohol denat,aqua, propylene glycol, PABA,hydroxypropyl methycellulose) Also took lid of to do a smell test and noticed that it has a male to female connector (I think that's the best way to describe it using electrical terms) so it should travel ok as the unit would become sealed when the lid is tightened.

I swear by P20, better that Piz Buin Allergy. Normally do a search on the net as it is easier for me to have it delivered to the door rather than going into town. Never bought it on ebay though, always sites that say 'genuine product' etc. It is fine in the hold luggage (never had problems so far), so long as it is in a plastic bag.

It certainly smells the same but the only test is when he uses it, I don't need to use it as you don't burn that much walking from car to shop[msnwink] Will report back on our return.

Received a reply from Virgin today apologising for delay, confirming that you can take aerosoles in your cabin baggage and giving link to latest news on what can and can't be taken onboard.

Sent a reply back pointing out that aerosoles are 150ml plus so they hadn't answered my original querry.

I did ring Virgin yesterday to book my sister's car from Gatwick, when my husband booked her ticket he was told that we could all use the car. I wasn't sure so decided to confirm and found that you are restricted to 4 suitcases as all luggage has to go in boot and not on the leather unholstery. (guess who's going in car with sister:D well I cant leave her by herself for the whole journey, can I)

I mentioned that I hadn't had a reply from customer services and she said that she thought that aerosoles had to go into the hold so now I'm totally confused. Mind you she did sound young and seemed to agree with everything I said so I'm still not confident about her reply.

Two years ago I found some cans of spray oil for cooking eggs, I wasn't sure but as they it came out as foam I packed some in my hold baggage. When I unpacked they had been removed and a sip of paper quoting why and a website to look at. From memory it was because they were flamable and the same sign is on the deodarant can.

Looks like DH will have to use Axe for two weeks unless any one else does pack deodarant cans in the hold cases.

Sorry to but in, but have any of you tried Prosport? Like P20 it is a once only application but unlike P20 it bonds to the skin in a couple of minutes instead of the 90 that P20 requires. We used to use P20 until we discovered Prosport (found it on another holiday forum) It is from the states so it should be available in Florida, although I tend to import it to the UK. I have not used it in Florida yet but have used it in Cyprus in August for the last couple of years. Just thought I would mention it in case some people are put off P20 due to the time it requires to bond to the skin.
