The SPF50 Guide
Sunlight is famous for boosting our mood, but it’s also a major culprit behind premature skin ageing and damage. Using daily sun protection is essential, and SPF50 provides one of the strongest shields against harmful UVA and UVB rays. Making it part of your everyday skincare - yes, even under the UK’s gentler light - helps preserve your skin’s health and keeps your complexion glowing over the long term.
