Suncream for my wedding day

28 replies

Wondering if anyone can recommend a suncream to wear on my wedding day - long lasting, well absorbing, not greasy/smeary, not going to turn my dress a yellow colour…?

I really would not bother if its in the UK, I never wear here it at home its not needed, I have a vit D deficiency as it is

Silly comment. You do burn in the UK especially down south England

I have used ultrasun for years and love it. Unfortunately it has just failed Which? safety testing and is now in the 'do not buy' category. It's a shame as its the only one my skin doesn't react to.

Show quote history

That was only one particular type of Ultrasun (Family 30), they still have one of the others (Kids 50) in the Pass category.

I have used Ultrasun 50 for many years with white clothes and never had it leave a mark. It disappears completely, just wait a few minutes before dressing.

No way would I go without, the last thing you want is sunburn on your wedding day and it can happen very quickly.

Personally I’d use ultraviolet mineral or altruist suncream (made by a dermatologist who specialises in skin cancer prevention in albinos in Africa..)
