Shield up this summer!
Thousands of Aussies suffer from sunburns annually. Been waiting for weeks for them to go half price. Other brands such as Cancer Council ones are half price as well.

I wouldn't spend so much money on sunscreen here since we have cheaper options (at least in the US, cheaper brands were found to be more effective anyway if that was the primary goal - we probably don't know enough about ingredient safety). The only time I buy Nivea is when I have no choice - which is when holidaying in Asia. They seem to hold a monopoly on (non-whitening) sunscreens and SPF30 (or more) doesn't come cheap.
I guess, but nothing much we can do about it here. Cheapest I could find on the shelf.
Interestingly, a lot of people on productreview.com.au accuse the Coles brand of being ineffective and causing its own burns (http://www.productreview.com.au/p/you-ll-love-coles-suncare.…). If generally true it's a shame since the standard $10/L bottle seems to be great value. At the moment Woolworths Select 1L bottles are also $9.99 (http://www2.woolworthsonline.com.au/Shop/ProductDetails?Stoc…), slightly cheaper than Homebrand ($11.81). They don't appear on productreview and I've never tried it.
The 100mL (http://www2.woolworthsonline.com.au/Shop/ProductDetails?Stoc…) and 250 mL spray (http://www2.woolworthsonline.com.au/Shop/ProductDetails?Stoc…) are also half-price at the moment. Much more portable but 100 mL bottles go like water for a family during the summer school holidays. The sprays are apparently less effective.
" The sprays are apparently less effective."
thats a myth. same reagents and spf. its just people say this cos with sprays, some dont put enough on or they miss spots since itz cleer
Saw an advert today for a brand called, I think, Solar D. Said its the only brand made in Australia.
