Very funny situation involving a French lotion (3,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sun cream

'lotion' is the definition.
(I know that sun cream is a type of lotion)

'very funny situation involving a french' is the wordplay.
'very funny situation' becomes 'scream' (scream can mean a hilarious situation).
'involving' indicates putting letters inside.
'a french' becomes 'un' ('a' in French).
'scream' placed around 'un' is 'SUN CREAM'.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
