I never used to think it was necessary for me to use sun protection unless I was on holiday, and even then, I used a low factor as I rarely get sunburn. Recently, I started to notice dry, itchy patches of skin on my face. My GP said this was likely due to sun damage and recommended that I use SPF50+ sun cream. After trying a few different products, I decided on Avène Very High Protection Tinted SPF50+ Cream, which I love. It’s very easy to apply and the tint blends in beautifully with my skin. I feel confident knowing that my skin is now protected when I go out in the sun. Olivia, aged 32 years Fictional quote.
