I just can't get it right and have loads in cupboard.
I think my sister told me Estee Lauder do a good F40?

Nivea do a factor 30 one. You can't tell you've got it on, it's excellent.

Oh really?
Will check it out.
Thanks

so what do you do if you normally wear make up in the summer then??

Piz Buin excellent and do an anti-allergenic factor 50: stops DD3 getting pink face from sun, heat rash or sun allergy early in the season, unlike every other cream. And she doesn't look hot or sticky either

Piz buin is good but really nasty if you get it in your eye. I used some Gatineau last year which was good-didn't have the eye problem with that. Use nivea on the chn as well.

Where did you get the clarins from Watts?
