THE 6 BEST NEW SUN CREAMS
FOR FACE
Thank You Farmer Sun Project Water Sun Cream SPF 50 (50ml)
£18 (cultbeauty. co.uk)
Great for dry (or ageing) skin, this is as hydrating as a moisturiser thanks to the addition of hyaluronic acid.
La Roche-posay Anthelios Ultralight Invisible Fluid Sun Cream SPF 50 (50ml)
£17.50 (boots.com) Kate Moss, Charlize Theron and our very own beauty team swear by this lightweight invisible facial SPF. One of the most sheer high factor sunscreens you can buy, this won’t clog pores or make skin greasy.
Perfectionist Pro Multi-defense Aqua UV Gel SPF 50 with 8 Anti-oxidants £36, Estée Lauder (estéelauder.com)
A new see-through SPF feeds your skin with vitamins to defend itself from free radicals, while the clear gel formulation doesn’t leave behind a chalky finish. A great primer for make-up, too.
FOR BODY
Sun Bum SPF 30 Spray
£17.99 (boots.com) If you like the smell of coconuts, you’ll love this. Vegan, cruelty and gluten free, this is dermatologist tested and water resistant for 80 minutes. And the wide, fine mist gives an even, lightweight application.
Bondi Sands SPF 50+ Body Sunscreen Lotion £6.39 (boots.com) Fragrance free and good for skin, with added aloe vera and vitamin E to leave it feeling moisturised. The omission of oxybenzone and octinoxate mean it’s safe for the ocean coral, too.
Soltan Once Spray SPF 50+ (200ml) £10 (boots.com) This took five years to develop and test, and uses a unique blend of filters that don’t break down in sunlight, along with a complex of polymers that bind the formula to the skin’s surface to prevent it coming off during the day.
