Overdone The Sun? Soleve Sunburn Relief Review by Margaret Graham

With summer, perhaps at last here, Frost is interested in Soleve Sunburn Relief. This means, that if the worst happens, and you sit out in the sun for too long you can make sure you have some help.Not only is Soleve Sunburn Relief  licenced but it combines  ibuprofen with a soothing emollient, isopropyl myristate. It is available without prescription, and not only relieves pain but rehydrates the skin.

New research by Soleve™ Sunburn Relief, has revealed that 60 per cent Brits have had a holiday ruined because of sunburn and three out of five have suffered from sunburn in the past five years. The research, which surveyed 1000 women aged 25-50, also found that amongst other surprising facts, three out of four women do not know which sun factor they should use, and half did not pack any protection at all which seems extraordinary with all the warning constantly being published.

Shoulders seem to be the most common hotspot for burning, followed by face and chest. So maybe the answer is – protect, but take something like Soleve just in case you forget to re-apply your sun protection after swimming.  Better than ruining your holiday, I would think.

So on that note, with the school holidays here, may the Frost Magazine team wish you all wonderful holidays.
Soleve Sunburn Relief can be found in Boots.com and independent pharmacies at £9.95 for 100ml.

 

 

Soleve Sunburn Relief Review | Health

Summer may feel like a distant memory but there are still a few lucky ones on holiday. In the hope of some future summer days, or future holidays we have reviewed Soleve Sunburn Relief. It is the first licensed product of its type specifically formulated to ease the pain and discomfort of mild to moderate sunburn. solevesunburnreliefreview Here is what they say:

Soleve Sunburn Relief is a lotion applied to mild to moderately sunburnt skin to relieve the pain of the sunburn and to moisture the skin. It combines two active ingredients to deliver effective relief right where it’s needed: an effective analgesic, ibuprofen, and an emollient, isopropyl myristate.

Ibuprofen is a well-known Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drug (NSAID) that is a powerful painkiller and reduces inflammation. Soleve is specially designed to deliver therapeutic levels of ibuprofen directly into sunburnt skin – precisely where it is needed.

Isopropyl myristate, is an emollient which effectively soothes and moisturises the skin by trapping water. Rehydration of sunburnt skin is very important to promote the normal healing process and to make the skin feel more comfortable by reducing both the skin tightness of sunburn and the frictional irritation between sunburnt skin and clothing.

 

This lotion goes on easily and a little bit goes a long way. It absorbs well and you can use it up to eight times a day. Does it work on sunburn? Yes, it eases and soothes. It is quite pricey at £9.95 but it does work, both moisturising and painkilling. It doesn’t smell bad and is not overpowering either. Recommended as a first-aid kit essential, good stuff.
