With regard to suncream, I buy some when I get to Oz partly because it makes a heck of a mess if it leaks on the plane and partly because the factor 30 etc protection is much higher in the brands available in Oz than in anything I've ever found in the UK assuming that the factor numbers work in the same way in both countries. I don't know whether they do or not, though.

The hats for children in Oz tend to be better-designed for protecting the backs of their necks and behind their ears than the hats here as well.

Plus in Oz you can buy special tee-shirt type garments called razzies. The material they are made of keeps UV rays out. I don't know whether you can get razzies in the UK but they are good.
