A schoolboy had his first holiday in three years ruined after his arms were left covered in painful blisters - despite generously applying factor 50 sun cream. Kainen Ellis, 11, had been enjoying the sun in Turkey with his family during his first holiday since 2019 - but it wasn't long before his fun was ruined.
Despite being smothered in children's factor 50 Nivea sun cream, poor Kainen was left covered in painful blisters - and had to spend the second week of his holiday hiding in the hotel room. Mum Jessica Ellis, 35, claims he had to visit a doctors' surgery every morning, where a nurse popped the blisters that had appeared all over his arms and shoulders, much to the little boy's agony.
His brother Preston, eight, had used different sun cream, but wore the Nivea cream on his nose, which quickly erupted in blisters as well, the mum alleges. Jessica says she has been left heartbroken by what happened to her little boy - and is now issuing a warning to parents over using the sun cream.
