"I used this sun cream for the first time last year. I have suffered with pricky heat for years and have never found a product that helps. I was able to sit out in the sun for two weeks and didn't suffer with any form of pricky heat. What a life saver. A holiday that was so much more enjoyable without the itching. Would highly recommend, the only thing is you get addicted to the smell....beautiful."

"I just wanted to drop you a line to say how fantastic your suncreams are. In the past I have found that I have tanned very unevenly but your creams have stopped this. I have just come back from a week in Spain and I have the best tan I have ever had (I am blonde and quite fair skinned) - I didn't burn at all. The SPF 15 with tan accelerator is great. I would recommend your creams to everyone, but especially to those who have difficulty tanning. I also use your Rosemary shampoo and gentle tone and cleanse, all of which are great. Thank you!"

"We have just returned from a lovely holiday in tenerife and for the first time ever i never got any nasty rashes from suncreams because i used yours. it was fantastic it just felt and smelt like a lovely organic moisteriser.myself and my husband used the factor 15 and our 7 year old daughter had the childrens 25 no scent they were very effective. the only thing i would say would it be possible to make the children's in a spray formula as the cream takes a bit of rubbing in and she like all kids has no patience. thank you once again for your great products."

Note from Green People: We've looked into the possibility of offering a spray formula but unfortunately this would not be possible due to the mineral content of our sunscreens.

Just had to write a quick note, having recently returned from a short break away in the Caribbean ie: very hot climate. I used your SPF 15 sun lotion and after sun lotion for the first time and I was simply amazed at how my skin looks and feels. I did not burn at all and I used the after sun lotion at the end of each day and my skin has never felt so soft and moisturised. I was truly amazed that after a long flight back to the UK I had no dry skin at all on my body which I always have immediately after the flight and at least for a few days. I already use other of your skin care products but will certainly be recommending the sun care range to my friends. Thank you Green People for my lovely tanned, smooth looking skin.

Q. Does this sunscreen still allow Vitamin D through?

Sunlight does not contain Vitamin D – this is manufactured in the skin as a result of UV exposure. As sun screens reduce the amount of UV rays reaching the surface of the skin, they will automatically reduce the amount of Vitamin D that will be produced.

Having said that, our bodies do not need prolonged exposure to sunlight to produce sufficient Vitamin D. It is estimated that as little as 10 minutes exposure of unprotected face and arms will generate sufficient Vitamin D for daily needs. Therefore, even when using a high factor sun lotion, a couple of hours exposure of face, arms, legs and possibly trunk will give ample Vitamin D production. Couple this with the fact that our bodies can store excess Vitamin D for several months and there is no risk of Vitamin D deficiency from the use of any sun lotion.

Q. Just a question regarding tan accelerator,is this a small amount of self-tan or is it a specific ingredient which speeds up the tanning process?

The Sun Lotion SPF15 with the sun tan accelerator is designed to increase the melanin in the skin and therefore encouraging a tan. It is not a self tan product.

Q. Is this a non comedegenic sun screen? I get prickly heat and I am looking for a non sticky/greasy sun screen that does not block the pores like you used to get years ago before everything was waterproof. Thanks.

Many sun creams and lotions contain ingredients designed to make the products waterproof. Unfortunately, these can often prevent the skin from breathing properly, which in turn can aggravate irritating conditions such as prickly heat. Green People’s sun lotions do not interfere with the normal function of the skin and many customers have reported that they have used them without getting the prickly heat that they usually suffer from when using other brands of sun lotion.

Q. Please can you advise if this product and the after sun are compatible with homeopathy treatment.

The SPF15 sun lotion is compatible with homoeopathy treatment. The G006 After Sun Lotion does contain Peppermint oil which some homoeopaths advise should not be used in conjunction with homoeopathic medication however.
