Default REALLY IMPORTANT.... Should I buy

Sun tan CREAM or OIL for my holiday (starting Friday)

Cream is soooooo much harder to rub in.... opposed to oil which is sooooo easy!

Whats the best?? anyone??

I use oil at the end of hols, but it gets everywhere clothes, towels etc. Don't know if it stains either?!?

There's some sprays which are better than cream for spreading but not like the oil. Can't see it cover though, so around the watch area is a pain. I like to use cream for nose/forehead, i can see it covering everywhere.

Wish i could put all this advice into practice this summer.

Use pure sunflower oil, it has natural sunblocking properties.

I would check the dipstick first - but I dare not ask where it's kept...

Should you find a nice young lady while on holiday, surely cream is better since it takes longer for her to rub it in for you.

We must be aware of the priorities!

And the WINNER is LES!

On that note I'm off to buy some factor 500, surely that should take long enough to 'rub in'
