Three popular sunscreen lotions offer less protection than they claim, according to consumer organisation Which?
Which? carried out spot-checks on 26 sunscreens. Three lotions, from Calypso Sun, Bondi Sands and Asda did not pass all the tests – but others, including some cheaper options from supermarkets Aldi and Lidl, did.
Asda questioned the validity of the Which? tests, saying independent tests of the same batch had confirmed the lotion provided the level of protection on the label.
Calypso Sun and Bondi Sands said all products were carefully tested and met safety standards.
