Psonally I would buy the Suncare Central products, not sure how you can get in touch with them but they work many of the hotels in the south. Their sun creams and tan accelerators are amazing in my opinion. :spin:

We normally bring sun cream out with us, but is it just about the same price in Tenerife as in the UK supermarkets?

Also has anyone used either Aldi or Tesco sun cream as in a recent TV programme their own brands showed better results than most of the expensive ones.:dontknow:

I think you would prefer a cruise over to the Isle of Cumbrae and I can arrange it for free!

We usually buy P20 and get it from one of perfumery shops on the prom not far from Puerto Colon. Usually pay 16-18 euro for a 200ml bottle

Cal-Mac don't charge for the ferry from Cumbrae to the mainland, so that way the islanders get one trip for nothing.....and that's the day that they are in the hearse coming over to Largs to be buried.:welcome:

Thanks Susie, Carol says it's about £15-17 here so it's probably better to do what you do and buy it in Tenerife.:)

I occasionally buy on EBay when we are taking out a case or occasionally you get it on special 2 for £30 at airport.
My hubby won't use anything else. Only needs one app a day. Never burns.
Can get it in higher factor too for fair skin.

A case of sun tan oil ......that's a bit excessive!!:crylaughing:



On a serious note I wouldn't touch any cosmetics from eBay, the amount of fake stuff that has been seized by customs as it comes into the UK from Eastern European countries is measured by the ton and most of it contains stuff that's either very harmful or plain disgusting.:nono::nono::nono:

Nope Ecky never had fake P20. Always get from a respectable seller. Never had a problem.
