We’ve rounded up six of the best SPFs to protect the skin while you enjoy the sunshine. Fingers crossed for some sunny spells

Words Jessica Burrell

The Great British summertime is renowned for its unpredictability, but there’s one thing we can all be sure of – if the sun does rear its (very welcome) head, it’s vital to protect skin from its harmful rays. Quite apart from avoiding that unenviable ‘lobster look’ after spending an afternoon in the sun, SPFs prevent long-term sun damage and skin ageing. With a new wave of sun care hitting the beauty market, you can forget about chalky white residue and say hello to anti-ageing and organic skin-savers.
