Protect & Moisturise Suncare Lotion SPF50+

Looks good 4.4 / 5

A verified SPF50+ body sunscreen with strong UV coverage and decent comfort ingredients, but the presence of fragrance and alcohol makes it less appealing for sensitive or dryness-prone skin.

Skin

How it’s judged

Scored for skin — based on what its ingredients contribute.

What it may help with

UV protection i4.0 / 4

Whether it provides direct protection against UV radiation.

From Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol, Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Octocrylene

Hydration i3.8 / 4

Whether the ingredient helps increase the skin’s water content — humectants that attract water, ingredients that reduce water loss, or ones that make skin feel less dry.

From Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Glycerin, Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil, Propylene Glycol

Barrier support i3.5 / 4

Whether it supports the skin barrier — restoring lipids, reducing water loss, aiding barrier repair, or strengthening the skin’s protective function.

From Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Glycerin, Dimethicone, Tribehenin

Soothing i2.9 / 4

Whether it can calm the skin — linked to less redness, irritation, discomfort, or visible reactivity.

From Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil, Glycerin, Panax Ginseng Root Extract

Acne i2.5 / 4

Whether it can help acne-prone skin — reducing clogged pores, excess oil, acne-causing bacteria, inflammation, or breakouts.

From Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Alcohol Denat.

Things to watch

Sensitization i3.0 / 4

Risk of allergic contact dermatitis or immune-based reactions. Fragrance allergens, preservatives, botanicals, and some dyes may score here.

From Fragrance, Octocrylene, Alcohol Denat., Ethylhexyl Salicylate

Irritation i2.5 / 4

Risk of short-term irritation — stinging, burning, dryness, redness, or discomfort. Common for strong actives, acids, retinoids, fragrances, and harsh surfactants.

From Alcohol Denat., Fragrance, Phenoxyethanol, Potassium Hydroxide

Barrier disruption i2.0 / 4

Whether it can weaken or damage the skin barrier — harsh surfactants, strong exfoliants, high alcohol content, or overuse-prone actives.

From Alcohol Denat., Fragrance

Systemic exposure i1.8 / 4

Whether it has meaningful potential to be absorbed into the body at levels that may matter biologically. Most cosmetic ingredients score low unless there is known concern or high exposure.

From Octocrylene, Fragrance

Endocrine i1.5 / 4

Whether it has known or suspected hormone-related activity or endocrine-disruption concern.

From Octocrylene

About this product

A body sunscreen lotion from Soltan with SPF50+ and strong UVA/UVB coverage, verified against Boots' product page and ingredient list. The formula combines modern UV filters with humectants and emollients, but it also includes alcohol denat. and fragrance, which may make it less suitable for very sensitive or easily irritated skin.

Good signs
  • High-SPF broad-spectrum protection with multiple modern UV filters.
  • Includes humectants and emollients that can improve comfort versus a bare sunscreen.
  • Water-resistant and positioned as a body lotion, which fits outdoor and beach use.
Watch-outs
  • Contains fragrance, so it is not an ideal choice for fragrance-avoidant or reactive skin.
  • Alcohol denat. may reduce comfort for very dry or easily stinging skin.
  • The moisture claim is supported by emollients and humectants, but this is still primarily a sunscreen formula.
Best for
  • Daily body sun protection
  • General outdoor use
  • Users who want a sunscreen with some added moisturising feel
  • normal
  • dry
  • combination
  • oily
  • sensitive (with fragrance caution)
How to use it
  • Apply generously 15 minutes before sun exposure.
  • Reapply every 1-2 hours and after swimming or towelling.
  • Avoid contact with eyes and fabrics.
  • Patch testing is sensible for sensitive skin because of fragrance and alcohol.
