Combination of sun cream and insect repellent.
Very handy for overseas trip.
Protect yourself from skin cancer and insect-borne diseases.
Just in time for my northern Africa trip in mid-Oct. :)

Is there a test showing this one actually meets the SPF 50 claim?
There would be, as Australian-made sunscreens all have to be approved by the TGA, and the TGA requires the manufacturer to produce test results from external certified SPF testing labs. So in fact, all the sunscreens Choice tested had been previously tested by externally certified SPF testing labs, but Choice used different testing lab from the manufacturers.
Considering how spectacularly Ultra Violette ruined their own reputation by doubling down on the original test results, in my opinion this throws the entire existing framework into doubt.
I think that lab that UV used (Princeton Consumer Research) has been known to produce higher SPF results. SPF testing is not an exact science, but still…

Did a quick search on Google and landed on Choice.
Cancer Council Ultra Sunscreen says it's SPF50 but returned a test of 24.

Lots of other test results which are not good.
"Of the 20 sunscreens we tested, only four products actually met their SPF 50 or 50+ claims," says CHOICE CEO, Ashley de Silva.
These ones meet SPF 50 claims:
General reminder that even though the Choice findings were shocking, they still showed the products were providing plenty of sun protection. Please do not lose faith in sunscreen!! Cancer Council Everyday Value sunscreen tested at SPF 27.
SPF 30 blocks 96.7% of UVB rays
SPF 50 blocks 98%
1000% this
Total off brand use but: putting a little bit of this cream on your dog's ear tips when outside in Summer keeps the flies off long enough for the tips to heal up properly. (Obviously go to a vet if it's really bad). Far, far better solution than trying to spray any Aerogard near them.
It is a great Repelent with some sun protection. hahaha
If you have FRANK health insurance you get $50/year to spend on Cancer Council sunscreen FYI
lol yeah nah
