Retailer phasing out Soltan suncream with SPF lower than 50 for children and 15 for adults
Boots will no longer make its Soltan suncream with a sun protection level lower than SPF50 for children and SPF15 for adults to encourage sun safe behaviour, as applying high-factor creams lowers the risk of skin cancer.
The chain said it had ceased production of seven creams including Soltan SPF30 for children and an SPF8 lotion aimed at adults. The low-factor creams will disappear from its shelves once stocks have been exhausted.
