Once-a-day sunscreens are often preferred by holidaygoers, but experts from Which? indicate that these products do not provide all-day coverage as marketed. They examined popular brands, revealing critical fine print details that advise frequent reapplying after sweating, swimming, or towel drying. Specifically, Boots Soltan's once-a-day claims of eight-hour protection are misleading as instructions emphasize generous application and reapplication under certain circumstances. These sunscreens are generally priced higher than standard options, further questioning their value versus effectiveness.
Experts from Which? analyzed four popular once-a-day sunscreens and found several hidden caveats regarding their effectiveness and longevity under various conditions.
The Boots Soltan Once Advanced 8 Hour Protect claims to provide eight hours of protection with one application, but the back warns about reapplying after towel drying.
Both versions of Boots' Soltan Kids Once range are marketed to last up to eight hours, yet the small print emphasizes the need for additional application under certain conditions.
