SPF in your beauty products

We’re right in the middle of holiday season, and whilst the weather here in Kendal seems to have gone a little more on the drizzle-side (and aren’t we more used to that!) many of you will be spending the next few weeks laying on the beach.

So, why is it important to make sure your makeup has an SPF?

Well, we all know how damaging the sun rays can be to our skin. It’s not only the risk of burning it’s the fact it also prematurely ages the skin (and we don’t want to end up like a wrinkly raison do we?!). These days it’s so easy to find a base makeup that has an SPF, they’re literally everywhere, and they can really help to protect your skin from the suns harmful rays whilst still looking flawless. 

We love the No7 range from Boots, and there is a huge range of different foundations – airbrush, superlight, matt, lift and illuminate…you name it they’ve got the perfect match for your skin. Plus each product has SPF15…which sort of makes it a no brainer. 

Finally, don’t forget the rest of your body. You might have SPF-ed your face but the rest of your body will need a good dose of suncream to product it from those hot rays!
