Suncream for red heads

My daughter will be 15 months old when we go abroad to Turkey in July. She has fair skin and ginger hair. We will cover her up best we can with the suit swim wear and a hat but what is the best sun cream we can buy to ensure she doesn't get sun burn.

My DD is a red head with fair skin, I've always used boots Soltan on her and she's never burnt. I use the 8 hour one but usually apply a few times especially if she's swimming.

Get a zinc stick for putting on top of whatever cream you use. Cover her face and shoulders with it!

Green People highest SPF - I used this when redhead DD was wee.
Now use Ultrasun for the whole family.
Both brands are expensive but they really work.
And keep out of the sun as much as you can between 11-3ish, I reckon!

Boots soltan factor 50 sensitive, works for my family's freckly skin

I'm a redhead, always factor 50 and 30 just isn't strong enough and I would still burn through that. Any brand of factor 50 has been fine for me :)

Factor 50, and don't trust the all day ones, always reapply after lunch.
