BLING IT UP

STAY safe in style with the Netatmo June Bracelet (£35, spacenk.com): a wearable UV- tracking device, which monitors your sun exposure and sends bespoke recommenda­tions to your smartphone — including when to put on a hat, sunglasses or sun cream, as well as the necessary SPF level to use.

Regular notificati­ons warn when you are close to exceeding the 100 per cent mark of your daily dose of sun (the point at which you will burn).

The jewel design is available with a leather or silicon wristband.

STRESS-FREE SUNBATHING

IF YOU are worried about sensitive areas around the nose, ears, neck — or pigmentati­on and moles — invest in a Sunpatch (ten strips for £9.99, sunpatchpr­otects.com). These transparen­t patches have built-in UV filters and can be applied directly to vulnerable skin, alongside your usual suncream, for more targeted SPF protection.

ONE STEP AHEAD

OFTEN standard weather reports can be deceiving — it is still possible to burn, even when it’s not sunny, so don’t head out without your sunscreen. The free ‘UV Lens’ app ( uv-lens.

com) gives a daily UV Index Forecast using a five-point scale, from ‘no UV’ to ‘very high’. Simply input your postcode and take a personalis­ed skin assessment to find out how long you can spend outside without burning.

TRUE COLOURS

WHETHER you are holidaying in the tropics or just enjoying a local park, it is easy to forget how long you’ve been outside. L’Oreal and La Roche-Posay have developed a sticker which detects UV and changes colour when you are at risk: the free ‘My UV Patch’ and app work together to generate sun safety tips.
