Sun Cream

Not long until the summer holiday now so it is time to start picking up some essentials. Every year I go for the trusty Piz Buin, this is fantastic sun protector and never fails to give you a lovely tan that will last for months. I only need to apply it twice a day and I always go away in August so as you can imagine it is very hot! All there products come in a selection of factors so it suits all skin types. If you are wanting a great bronze effect I would also recommend using a teaspoon of oil everyday, you can also buy these as a spray oil which is a godsend when applying. You can pick up some wicked deals on Piz Buin at Boots as they sometimes offer a buy one get one free so keep your eyes open for this and grab them when you can.

See below for a few tips to prepare yourself for your summer holiday:

• 2 weeks before you go on holiday moisturise your twice a day. This works a treat as your skin has not been exposed to the sun for a while it gets your skin prepared for the sudden change of circumstances.

• ALWAYS buy suncreams that offer UVA and UVB

• For a healthy glow moisturise skin during and after sun expose

• Do not put your sun cream on whilst you are on the sun lounger if you can apply 20/30 minutes before your skin is exposed to the sun.

• Pay special attention to your ears, nose, shoulders, cleavage and neck.

• Drink plenty of water
