Wherever you’re going and whatever you’re doing this summer, this smart suncare has you – and your kids – covered …
When it comes to sun care, we want uncompromising protection – every single day. Whether we’re running to work, on the school run, gardening at the weekend or travelling abroad somewhere seriously sunny, we have to be sure that every member of the family is covered and safe from the sun. And this summer, Soltan is your ally, with its wide range of products delivering protection for your whole family.
The facts about sun exposure are sobering. More than 90 per cent of skin cancer – the most common form of cancer in Ireland, with the Irish Cancer Society reporting more than 13,000 new cases every year – is caused by exposure to UV radiation from the sun. And, as the Irish Cancer Society reports, getting sunburnt in childhood or adolescence can increase the risk of melanoma – the most serious form of skin cancer – in later life. People get most of their sun exposure before the age of 18.
So we need to wear sun protection all year round. And especially at this time of year. We need to be wearing sun protection every day, whatever we’re doing – remember that UV rays can penetrate glass, including windows in the office, at home and in the car.
Soltan’s uncompromising 5* UVA protection spans the entire sun care range. And joining the extensive range this year is new SPF skincare, which combines robust protection along with skincare benefits. Also, innovative new formats – such as the Soltan Kids Once Suncare Roll On SPF50+ – are making it easier than ever to get that vital protection onto your kids’ skin, so that you can relax, knowing they’re safe in the sun.
Wherever you’re going and whatever you’re doing, Soltan have you – and your kids – covered …
1 For every day
Sensitive skin? It can be hard to find sun care that doesn’t irritate or clog skin, but Soltan Hydrating Sensitive Protect Facial Sun Care SPF50 is specially formulated for sensitive skin. It’s packed with skincare ingredients such as niacinamide, to support hydration, while being free from added fragrance or colour. From just €7 for a travel-friendly 50ml, this little tube has your skincare needs sorted. There’s also a Brightening Protect & Moisturise Facial Suncare Cream with Vitamin C SPF50+, featuring skincare hero ingredient vitamin C.
2 For a weekend away
Just roll and go. Soltan Kids Once Suncare Roll On SPF50+ is your handy one-stop sun protector, offering up eight hours of sun protection, plus up to three hours’ water resistance, should there be a pool or seaside handy. And the neat roll-on format is perfect for throwing into your weekend bag. €8.50.
3 For an exotic summer holiday
We’re big fans of the roll-on format for kids – somehow it’s much easier to apply than a thick cream, especially when it’s hot outside. And Soltan Kids Protect & Moisturise Suncare Roll On SPF50+ is extra water-resistant, with maximum 5* UVA protection, so you can head away knowing you have your children’s sun care covered; there’s also a lotion version, if you prefer. From €4.50.
4 For sports days
Whatever you’re doing this summer, you need to have this big sunshine-yellow spray-gun handy. Soltan Kids Protect & Moisturise Suncare Spray SPF50+ provides immediate and water-resistant protection via a generous 250ml (so up to 13 applications for a small child’s body size). The spray format makes it easy to apply, and it’s also easily absorbed, non-greasy and gently moisturising for the skin. At less than a tenner, we’re keeping this one-stop skin saver by the front door this summer… €9.
5 For long summer days in the garden or on the beach
This easy-to-apply Soltan Clear & Cool Protect Suncare Mist SPF50+ features the highest UVA rating to protect against damaging UVA rays that penetrate deep into the skin, causing long-term damage, and UVB protection, against rays that burn. This water-resistant transparent mist is cooling and refreshing to spray on – and it’s quick-drying, too. €9.
6 For the whole family
Passport, money, swimming costume, sun care … Don’t leave the house without this Soltan Family Essentials Travel Pack, a neat travel-friendly case with everything you need to Protect & Moisturise the entire family, including soothing aftersun lotion – all for €12. Check out the other Soltan sun care sets, too.
