✢ Keep skin protected
Despite sun exposure (a key factor in developing skin cancer), 23% of Brits admit they don’t use any sun cream†. Stay safe by avoiding the sun when it’s at its hottest between 11am to
3pm, wear a hat with a wide brim and always apply sun cream. Not sure what to choose? “A higher price doesn’t necessarily mean the sunscreen is better quality,” says Dr Mahto. “Look for SPF 30 or more to protect against UVB, and the UVA circle logo and/or 4 or 5 UVA stars to protect against UVA.” Get into the habit of applying your sunscreen before venturing outside, as SPF needs up to 20 minutes to sink in. ✢ Korres Sunscreen Face & Body Emulsion Yoghurt SPF50, £22, lookfantastic.com ✢ Best for… face Cetaphil Daily Defence Moisturiser SPF 50+, £12.99, Boots
