so, a family of 6 including 2 parents, 3 teens (all bigger than me) and an 8 yr old.
How much suncream should I buy for a 2 week holiday to Greece.

someone said to me 2-3 bottles a week per person.
that is 24-36 bottles of the stuff. There will be no room in the cases, if you add in shampoo, conditioner, aftersun, san products for girls. Body lotion etc. What do you wise m'netters suggest? baring in mind I will have to pay for it all (budget not huge)... oh and insect repellent..lots of that.

Maybe get the children/ teens UV rash vests too.

Like the idea of once a day cream.
Sounds ideal, never heard of it before.
Thanks

2/3 bottles a WEEK?? If you read the back of the bottles they tell you how many applications they do.

Boots soltan range do an 8 hour one for kids that has insect/wasp repellent in it. Even though its for kids it's suitable for teens and adults too. It's half price at the moment (about £7 - £8 ) it tells you on the back how many applications per bottle but I only use it where clothes don't cover so it lasts a bit longer.
