Taking care of your skin is the utmost important and most of the consensus and surveys all point to plenty of people being negligent about it. Skin cancer is on the rise and it’s the 7th most common cancer in both males & females in Spore!
Well being active myself, I have my fair share of training under the sun. I was quite ignorant as with most people until I saw a documentary few years back that showed the extent of sun’s ultraviolet rays on our skin.
Well since then I’ve been using sun blocks like there’s no tomorrow, hahaha … Well over the years I’ve grown to love this certain sun block. I truly recommend Hamilton Superblock. It’s an aussie product. The lads down under should know and are experts at sun blocks obviously as skin cancer tops their cancer list.
Well it doesn’t have that ‘stinky’ awful sun block smell as it’s ‘sunscreen milk’ product, it’s water resistant up to 4 hours, it doesn’t give that sticky feeling on your skin as with most sun blocks and it has a very high protective SPF.
It feels as though I’m applying a bath milk when I used it. Trust me you’ll love it. But it will come at a price though. It will set you back around $15 for SPF 60 and $19 for SPF 80. But then again you can’t put value on your ‘quality’ of life. I think it’s money well spent.
The thing is, people always makes fun of me every time I applied the sun block during training. I think most people have this idea, that sun block are only used for the beach. Well it isn’t people. Do everything you can to minimize UV rays exposure!
Educate yourself … More info on skin cancer here
interestingly, im allergic to sunblock. it hurts the most when i applied it on my face. even when its meant for the face! :( any other recommandation for my skin type?
I didn’t know you’re allergic … well i don’t know any other sunblock product for those with allergies
Like that you have to be under the shade alot. bummer
$16 and $19 is cheap lor.. my sunblock for face alone is $65 cause my skin is too sensitive=S
But good to know you’re taking care of yourself=)
Loads of guys thinks its sissy. I think its a must since no one else shall do that task for you.
I have to chase my bro with his acne cream every night that PEMALAS haha!
and I’ve been breaking out due to the lack of sleep and water=S
Where do you get this Hamilton Superblock?
Wow, what kind of brand is that! Maybe you can give some info here as I believe Teeshah is allergic to it. maybe she can try it
Hahah yeah guys can be so pemalas at times, I know, coz I at times just buat bodoh, now I know cannot la
The sun block is available at all supermarkets and shopping malls, watson, etc
hi dee, were you able to get this hamilton super block? If so can you tell me where you bought it? Thanks
It cost $22 at my local pharmacy now
The price went up by $3
haish. teringat gueh yang gueh skarang hitam belegam no thanks to redang. takpelah, it was worth the sacrifice kwang kwang kwang.
ewah, fun seh … from all you redang pics. got say hi to Nemo for me tak?
well brings sunblock next time aite
to teeshah:
maybe u’re allergic to a particular chemical component in e sunblock u used previously?
anw, yeah, $15 to $19 is pretty reasonable as compared to e mass market ones available nowadays. and definitely more affordable than the counter or clinical ones. so, no reason not to go w/o hamilton’s!
is it UVA/UVB +++?
:)
Yesh it’s UVA, UVB, UVC … can last me for quite some time
So it’s a good investment :-)
hey!

lol. thats the price on the tag! but i dunno abt flirtg with uncle Samy. you try and lemme know. if it works i’l kirim you to get sunblock for me next time! =)
“applying sunblock on your back can be tricky, haha”
thats a hint? mayb Uncle sha would be more than delighted to apply em for you. =X
ok i’ll try flirting with uncle samy. if he wants ‘special’, i bukak langkah lari dulu! runnnnnnnnnnnn!
hoi! ape ni ajar budak kecik that might reading this blog the wrong idea … ‘tricky’ as in difficlt to apply the lotion onto my unreachable areas … hmm then again it does sounds ‘porny’ eh … change topic :-) haha
yes!!
sun block is A MUST!!!!!!!
i just realised it like 2 mths ago…
wahahahahhahahahahaha
glad you’re a user too … but sometimes applying sunblock on your back can be tricky, haha
Teeshah, I think you can try those like hypoallergenic ones? I think mine is gallenic.. or josephine haha! can’t remmeber cause my mom poured it out into a container. use the ones that are erm for sensitive skin.. don’t scrimp la=) ask yusri!! HAAHAHAHAHHAHA!!
The guy from down under says hi~ Thanks for the concern bro I’m fine
Anyway $19 for 125ml is outragous.. it’ll barely last me a mth alone, people here buy sunblocks in like 1 litre tubs.
And u’re not wierd, everyone here applies sunblock before training. Imagine putting on spikes and this guy pulls out a tank of sunblock and everyone starts applying them.
sounds gay.. looks gay.
But tanning is killer body art.
that’s what i’ve been trying to tell people … i’m not weird! haha
wah i wish i could get 1litre sun block, i’ll consume some even :-p
Hi!!I’m using it now but its finishing is there any of these products that I can buy here in UK,
Thanks
Hi try an online search here
I’m in Singapore, so I don’t know about UK markets
