Whether you are heading on holiday soon or hoping to soak up some sun in Scotland this summer, it is important to know how to protect yourself from harmful UV rays.
With the Met Office predicting this summer will be hotter than last year, Scots will likely enjoy much more of the warm weather in the coming weeks and months.
But despite the heat being hugely enjoyable for most, providing the ideal conditions for a BBQ, beach day or just a chill outside with loved ones, the sun also brings with it some dangers. It means it is crucial to apply suncream and understand what the SPF on the products actually means.
