This summer I ran out of favourite sunscreen, Piz Buin, and to my dismay I found out that it is not sold in New Zealand anymore!
I even contacted SC Johnson (the importer) and asked why.
They sent me an email saying “sorry, we weren’t selling enough so we cancelled the product line”.
I couldn’t find a single bottle of Piz Buin in any NZ shops online or offline after a week of searching so I bought a few bottles from a UK website and they just arrived!
It’s my favourite sunscreen for 4 reasons:
- I trust it to keep me from being burnt. I’ve never been sunburnt using it (whereas I’ve been burnt using other sunscreen brands)
- It doesn’t smell terrible (like most sunscreens do), nor is it too perfumed
- It doesn’t turn your skin grey when you put it on (like some other sunscreens do)
- It really is waterproof (I spend the whole day in the sun and reapply only once)
Is it your favourite too?
Well this is your chance because I purchased a few extra bottles (to spread the cost of shipping) and now I’m selling them on TradeMe:

This sun screen is awesome. And I’m the only person in New Zealand that is selling it. So be quick, because I’m sure to sell out soon.
