DODDS stock a big range of sun protectors, and they are particularly enthusiastic about the new Suncare range from Elizabeth Arden. Five of these Suncare products have a factor number —the higher the number the greater the protection. However, don’t choose a number by your skin colour—it is based on your skin reaction. E.g., 15 the highest factor gives ultra protection. It is a complete sun blocker and is ideal for bald heads or skin lacking pigment. 8,6, 4, and 2 are the other numbers and they will allow you to tan beautifully, safely. Ask for Suncare at DODDS, Papanui Road. Phone 559-049. (bath review) The shop is very bright and gay—one should say festive as they have many gifts suitable for the forthcoming festive occasion.
