As a rule, SPF is recognised to be something that should be applied to the face everyday throughout the year, yes that’s right everyday (even when the British weather has hit an all time low). Yet for many of us, the importance of SPF is still deemed to be an unnecessary factor. Everyone benefits from the radiant results of sun and anti ageing protection, even darker complexions who naturally have more melanin in their skin, which scientifically adds an extra layer of protection against the sun's UV rays. However be warned that this is only a small percentage of protection and an SPF is still required to maintain healthy skin.

In the past, higher sunscreen factors such as SPF 50 tend to be the culprits that are usually avoided and left on the shelf, due to their formulas often being thicker and less likely to be absorbed into the skin quickly. This is where Tom Ford’s Face Protect Broad Spectrum steps in to draw a line under the SPF 50 stigma. With a lightweight fast absorbing face cream that contains antioxidants and anti-irritants, this leaves the skin feeling protected yet comfortable with a healthy glow.

Along with sun protection being a big MUST, the question of pollution is another issue which can take its toll on the skin if you live or work in a city. Clinique’s City Block Sheer SPF 25 helps to combat both of these concerns in an oil free formula, which is easily absorbed and won’t come between your makeup regime.
