Boots is to stop selling its own Soltan sun cream creams with an SPF of lower than 50 for children and 15 for adults in a bid to encourage customers take greater care in the sun and lower their risk of developing skin cancer.
SPF refers to the amount of UVB protection a product provides from the damaging effects of the sun.
Soltan spokeswoman Clare O’Connor said: “Through our partnership with Macmillan, we’re committed to taking action to improve sun safety. “This is particularly important for children, whose skin is more vulnerable to sun damage, so we want to help parents in choosing the highest protection available.” “Anyone with concerns about changes to their skin should contact their GP, and they can also chat to specially trained nurses on the Macmillan support line.”UVB rays play a greater role in causing skin cancer, but UVA rays can also contribute.
