La Roche Posay’s Anthelios SPF 50 Invisible
Face Mist, £14, Look FantasticThere might be a multitude of products that promise to give you a faux glow but the best way to achieve
that real fresh-faced holiday look is with well looked-after skin.
According to Dr Catherine Borysiewicz, consultant dermatologist at the Cadogan Clinic, the best way to
do this is by ensuring your skin is protected and moisturised.
Borysiewicz states that suncream is the most important skincare product for sunny holidays, explaining
that she spends a large amount of time managing sun damage and skin cancers.
“I’m proud to be a sunscreen geek and love finding new and clever multi-tasking products,” Borysiewicz
tells The Independent.
“The key is finding an affordable product that feels good on your skin, suits your skin type and that you’ll be
happy to apply regularly.”
The skincare expert recommends investing in an SPF product that doesn’t leave a residue or cause
breakouts, and to never go lower than factor 50.
Borysiewicz’s top picks include La Roche Posay’s Anthelios SPF 50 Invisible Face Mist and Bioderma
Photoderm Spot SPF 50.
