A mum-of-two has issued a sun cream warning after her sons' sunburn ruined their family holiday to Gran Canaria.
Carlien Pretorius from Newport, Wales, had been in Gran Canaria for hours with her boys Joshua, 11, and Luke, nine, last week when she noticed both of them had started to burn. Despite applying SPF (sun protection factor) 50 and wearing T-shirts, Carlien said Joshua's burns became so bad that she decided to take photos and post them on social media.
Carlien said she used sun cream they'd bought from a shop labelled "parafarmacia" on the island. After the burns became so bad she said she took her sons back to the same shop where they gave her an ointment to put on the skin, spending a total of €110, reported WalesOnline.
