What is P20 Sunfilter? How do I use it?

The active ingredient in P20 is PABA (p-aminobenzoic acid), which is a natural substance found in the human body, also known as vitamin H. When P20 is applied to the skin the p-aminobenzoic acid is absorbed and binds to the keratin, a process that takes 90 minutes. After this binding, P20 gives long-lasting and effective protection.

Amazingly P20 lets you tan! It gives high protection (SPF20) against the sun's "burning" UVB rays, but still lets through some UVA rays to allow you to tan. Result? A golden tan without "the burn". Remember the sun is at its strongest and should be avoided between 11am and 3pm.

P20 is non-greasy and fragrance-free once dry, so you no longer have to apply sticky sun preparations throughout the day! Because of this it is ideal for men with thinning hair as there is no grease or "shine" like normal sun preparations. Remember not to use any moistuiser etc, before using P20 as it will stop the product binding to the keratin of your skin.

To use, apply P20 each morning in an even layer to clean, dry skin, 90 minutes before sunbathing or swimming, paying particular attention to vulnerable areas such as the face, shoulders, shins and feet.

Because P20 is different, full directions must be read carefully before use.

P20, 100ml and 200ml bottles r.r.p. are  £11.95 and £21.95 respectively.
