Sun Protection

Always use sun protection - sun damage is the single greatest cause of ageing resulting in freckles, sun spots, pigmentation, wrinkles and at worst leading to skin cancer.

This doesn't mean you can't have fun in the sun - looking bronzed is a great way to look healthy, but always wear sun protection and avoid excessive periods of strong sun exposure. Using sunless tanners is a great way to top up that sun kissed look, but never use sun tanning machines as they accelerate skin damage and put you at risk of skin cancer.

In Scotland during the autumn and winter months we recommend you use a minimum SPF 15 and during the spring and summer months at least SPF 30. When going on holiday in hot countries you should use SPF 50.  

We offer a wide range of sun protection suitable for healthy, acne and rosacea skin types. One of most popular sun protection brands is Heliocare.
