European Sunscreen

[Julma]

Is there a shop on the Viking ocean ships that sells European sunscreen?  TIA

The gift shop has very little selection in the way of personal items. It’s mostly clothing. I recall that they did not sell mouthwash. Another poster stated they removed pain relievers and you need to now go to medical for that.

 

BTW what is European sunscreen?

All I can guess is this product:  Home - P20

 

I think it's popular in Europe, at least that's where I was turned onto the product.  Great for long days cycling.

I guarantee they do not carry that. If they have any at all if will be a mass market brand or something generic in medical.

 

Beauty shop or spa may sell skincare products, but that is pure speculation.

Possibly La Roche-Posay, Avène and a few others. I have never seen them on Viking. They’re very good and I buy them before I leave home.

I bought some on our cruise in May. It was Ibuprofen.

Pharmacy shops will have sunscreen, usually the shop has a green cross sign.  I've had to buy some and remember it was a fancy name, and price.

We purchased Coola Organic Sunscreen on the Viking Star during a recent cruise.

The little "personal items" area of the store should not be counted upon. If you might need it - bring it.

Not very effective as a sunscreen, though. Well, maybe if you had enough of them and some adhesive …

As a survivor of Stage 4 metastatic melanoma, I don’t make very many jokes about sunscreen. Buy it and use it.
