Matthew By Matthew

Using sunscreen is a vital part in keeping your skin safe from the damaging effects of the sun, but with so many to choose from, finding the right product can be overwhelming.

Our experts test a range of sunscreens to find out:

  • which products meet their SPF claims
  • how much they cost per dose
  • how many uses you can get from one bottle.

Read our summary of results in our article: We tested the SPF claims of 20 sunscreens. 16 failed. You can also read our guide to buying and using sunscreen. 

We’ve partnered with Shop Ethical on this review to show the ratings the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company.

Shopping links on the CHOICE website

CHOICE is an independent, nonprofit organisation dedicated to helping consumers. Clicking a link will take you to a retailer’s website to shop. While we make money if you buy through some retailer links, this doesn’t influence any of our rankings. 100% of the money we make goes straight back into our nonprofit mission. We’re currently testing this service and will consider providing more shopping links in the future. Tell us what you think.
