Nothing can be better than this- cheapest and yet the best. A new study has found that the cheapest sunscreens are better at protecting you from the sun than the more expensive ones.
Consumer Reports, an American magazine, tested 22 major brands and found that in general the less you spend, the better quality the cream is, reports the Daily Mail.
It concluded that the most effective were the creams which cost the equivalent of less than 88 cents per ounce.
For example, La Roche-Posay sunscreen that typically sells for 24 dollars was not as powerful as No-Ad, which retails at 7 dollars - less than a third of the price.
