5 star review for Green People sunscreen


“I have used this sun cream for several years. Even with a relatively low SPF 15, I have never been burnt, even in the Canaries, South of France and Spain. Being sensitive to active ingredients in other creams such as octocrylene, this is my go to product. Love it!”
Samantha, reviewing Edelweiss Sun Cream SPF15
