The Tried & Tested Sunscreen’s you Will Want To Wear All Summer & Beyond

The UAE temperature is rising rapidly daily with summer well and truly here. With this in mind, it is now more important than ever to be militant with your SPF and apply it like a true pro! Whether you love to bask by the pool on your day off, or hit your favourite beach club at the weekend, one item that should always make the cut in your beach bag is SPF. Aside from being a beach side saviour, SPF should also be a strong staple in your daily beauty arsenal and be applied to the skin as frequently as your daily face moisturiser. The sun’s harmful rays can pass through glass from your windows and penetrate deep into the skin, making it imperative to use sunscreen even when you’re not going outside.

When choosing your SPF weapon of choice, it is important to choose one that has been formulated with a daily broad-spectrum filter that offers effective UVA and UVB protection that will also leave the skin fully hydrated. This can also help reduce signs of premature skin ageing including fine lines and wrinkles – bonus!
