Jon Derbyshire - Olympic Sailing Coach - Sydney Olympics 2000

Every day, my morning routine included washing, shaving and applying Prosport Sunscreen - Ben Ainsley spent about 3 hours each day racing- but we were on the water for anything up to 8 hours - and I never needed to reapply my Sunscreen, or even worry about getting burned - however much spray I got doused in! Real peace of mind - especially as I needed to concentrate on other matters!!

Sailing and teaching for 8 hours a day under the desert sun for weeks at a time is the severest test for any suncream. But I have to say that 'Slopes' has left me bronzed, blemish-free and totally irresistible to the opposite sex.

My coaching work involves a lot of overseas travel to hot and sunny places. It can be a huge undertaking to get out there with all my kit and ensure that my guests have the best possible time and get the most they can out of the clinics. With Prosport, I can completely eliminate the worry of sun protection and just get on with my job. If it keeps my bald head from getting burned then it will work on everyone and anywhere!

I use ProSport sunblock because it's the one sunblock I've tried that doesn't dribble into my eyes- even if I've only applied it just before I hit the water!

Working abroad, testing kite gear, I really need sunscreen that works well. Beacuase of the fun involved with getting a lot of gear to the beach and testing it all day, I really don't need to be worrying about reapplying my sunscreen all day and with Prosport I don't have to!

Prosport is a non greasy sunscreen that dosen't wash into your eyes and lasts up to eight hours! As a surfer I couldn't ask for any more from a sunscreen. Check out some press from Andy.

Prosport allows me to safely spend the time I need to train on the water both in the UK and abroad. It doesn’t run so it doesn’t get in your eyes and it’s easy to apply. Even here in the UK I don’t leave the house with out it!

Pauline Swain - Mother/Model

Having been a keen fan of P20 for the past 6 years, I tried Prosport and now only use this product because it requires applying once a day and I can completely rely on it to protect my skin thoroughly. I also use only Prosport on my 5 year old daughter as she is very fair skinned and I need a product I can trust.

Prosport is by far the most reliable, non-hassle suncream that I've used. I rely on good sun protection in my work as I am outside all day and with one application in the morning, Prosport does the job and then some. Non greasy, water resistant, effective UV protection and not smelly - what more could you ask for from a suncream?

As a semi-professional sports person who windsurfs, snowboards, kiteboards and rides mountain bikes, I've used various sun blocks. All the brands (even water proof ones) require constant re-application throughout an active or non-active day. Yet, Prosport is the only sunscreen that I've found I can apply once and forget about; even when being total immersed, dragged and spat out! This is a real bonus as I get so excited I've been known to stay out on the water for 6 hours at a time. One other major advantage is the fact it's non greasy; I don't get sun tan cream all over my kit, especially after applying it.

Simon & Jane Bassett

Children are always a very special part of any family and sun protection has been accepted as an essential part of care whilst on the beach or out during the day. When Jane and I decided to take on Prosport as a distributor it was only after we had used it as consumers on ourselves and Holly, who was 18 months old at the time. I initially purchased Prosport, Factor 15 for windsurfing as it allowed me to windsurf all day in the sun without the problems of washing off and my equipment becoming greasy and oily. I also purchased some Prosport factor 44 which I used on my face and shoulders - I also used this on Holly who was in and out of the sun all day. To be honest, we wouldn't risk our child's skin for any amount of money and it worked for both myself and Holly really effectively. The beauty about the Prosport product is that you can put it on once and you don't have the problems of reapplying it on a sandy beach. It is important, however, for pale skin and children to use a high factor sunscreen all the time they are exposed to the sun.

In my job I need the best there is to keep the sun from my skin, sitting in a boat all day may sound like a dream, but the sun is harmful and the sure way to be confident that its not frying your skin is Pro sport sunblock in and out of the water, ever since I started using It, I have noticed a massive difference in the condition of my skin. We all have to conscious of the suns effects and way to stop them.

David used Prosport during the Marathon des Sables - a 250Km race through the Moroccan desert. "With temperatures reaching 46C in the Southern Moroccan Sahara, it was brilliant to have a sunscreen that allowed me to focus on the race and not worry about the sun."
