As you probably already know, I\u2019m a big fan of pound shops in general. However, they also have their drawbacks, and there are some areas where they don\u2019t always represent what I\u2019d call good value for money. Sun cream is a good example of this.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sun cream, sun tan lotion and any other SPF products are important for the health of your skin. They reduce the harmful effects of UV rays, and good products applied correctly can greatly reduce your risk of burning (UVB rays) and ageing prematurely (UVA rays).<\/p>\n<p>When I say \u2018applied correctly\u2019, I mean applied generously, and reapplied after swimming, sweating or generally being worn off. You need to use a fair amount of sun cream for it to work properly. One of the biggest problems with expensive creams is that we are more likely to skimp when we apply it, in the hope of making it go further or last longer. This compromises the protection.<\/p>\n<p>So it would appear that pound shops are potentially the answer \u2013 the sunscreens are affordable, and therefore you won\u2019t feel the need to spread them too thinly, or avoid reapplying them. Unfortunately, this is generally not the case for two main reasons: firstly the listed SPF is often woefully inadequate, and secondly the quality of the products is extremely difficult for the lay person to guess at.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SPF that isn\u2019t high enough<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s look at the listed SPF first. SPF is \u2018sun protection factor\u2019, and relates to the amount of extra time the product allows you to remain in the sun. If you burn in say, 10 minutes of sun, SPF 15 will allow you to say in the sun more safely for approximately 150 minutes, or 15 times longer than usual.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the branded, well known products that I\u2019ve seen in pound shops are only SPF 2, SPF 6 or SPF 8 \u2013 and this is actually dangerous. Dermatologists and clinical researchers recommend using a minimum of SPF 15, no matter how tanned you are or how dark your natural skin tone is. They also recommend wide-brimmed hats and covering up in the noonday sun. You can still tan through SPF 15, it just happens more slowly and with less risk of burning.<\/p>\n<p>Using SPF 2 or SPF 8 etc can create a false sense of security, and for example users might doze off in the sun and get a bad burn before they realise what\u2019s happened. This can cause severe damage to the skin, and can be a factor in developing skin cancer. It\u2019s especially bad if it happens to children and teenagers, and teenagers might well spend their pre-holiday pocket money in pound shops.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I\u2019m not saying some of these products are fakes, but\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This brings me on to the next issue. Most of the higher-SPF sun creams and lotions I\u2019ve seen in pound shops recently are not well-known brands. Often they are brands that superficially look like famous brands, but they\u2019re essentially unknown. When I\u2019ve looked at the packaging, there seems to be no proof that they have been subjected to the usual standard of UK testing (there\u2019s never any information that mentions both UVA and UVB, for example), and I can\u2019t easily find an expiry date for the product.<\/p>\n<p>Sun cream doesn\u2019t last forever. It has a use-by date for a reason, and that reason is the health of your skin. As things currently stand, I don\u2019t have much confidence that all of these products are going to live up to their claims, and as such I think it\u2019s too much of a risk to be taking.<\/p>\n<p>I have seen a few high SPF products in pound shops by better-known brands such as Malibu. They\u2019ve been well packaged, sealed, clearly labelled, and had expiry dates on the tubes and bottles. I\u2019d say that these are worth buying if you can find them \u2013 but they are few and far between. Unfortunately you can\u2019t rely on them being in stock.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the alternative? Go for a real fake!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So, what is worth buying in pound shops? I find branded bottles of wash-off fake tan and gradual self-tanner in these outlets on a regular basis, and these are brands that I\u2019ve previously used and liked. As things currently stand, I definitely reckon you\u2019re better off using pound shop stock to fake a tan, rather than build up the real thing.<\/p>\n<p>For a couple of pounds more, you can find reliable, quality-controlled own-brand sunscreens in bigger supermarkets and high street chemists, especially when there are summer offers and promotions. As sunscreens are essentially a health product rather than a cosmetic, I\u2019d say this is one place where you should pay a little bit extra.<\/p>\n<p>There is a need for a really cheap, reliable, safe, plain sunscreen that you can buy in bulk and slap all over without worrying about the cost \u2013 it isn\u2019t a luxury product, and shouldn\u2019t be marketed as such, for the sake of public health. Let\u2019s hope some manufacturer sees this gap in the market soon, and piles them high and sells them cheap.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Would you buy SPF from a pound shop?
