Just out of curiosity I wondered if people took sun cream with them or bought it when they get there, there are so many makes here in the US I wondered what people used and why they choose that make/brandI always use a high factor when here, but I noticed a woman on the beach covering herself in oil, I know everyone has different types of skin etc[?]
We use Riemans P20 Once A Day. Even when we went to the beach we did not get burnt. Not sure whether you can buy it over there we took it with us.

Yes I have tried this as I suffer from prickly heat, didn't work for me, went back to my Nivea but they have now stopped doing the sensitive skin one[msnsad]
Always take my P20 with me
Have suffered for years with the old Prickly Heat until I found out about this stuff
Would not risk not having it
That said I always buy it it whenever I see it over there as well
Hi
We were told that our sun creams over here are oil based, whilst the ones you buy in US are water based and so best to buy when you are there. We do not have such intense heat here, so ours can be oil based. Not sure how true that is but I always buy over there mainly because it is so much cheaper!!!!

I always take it with me, as I too suffer from prickly heat. I find that if I use Nivea spray factor 50, not only do I go a deep brown, I never burn or get prickly heat.
I have been using my Nivea but I had started to get a little prickly heat so I covered up and I am trying a coppertone oil free spray 30 on my top half I always get it around my neck[msnsad] although the last few years I have been ok here
