A celebrity skincare expert says you should prepare your skin for the sun by having – a green tea. Scott McGlynn, 35, makes sure to have the hot drink before he heads out into the sun as he said it can help prevent sunburn.
According to a study on the 'Protective Mechanisms of Green Tea Polyphenols in Skin' the drink has an abundant source of plant polyphenols which help protect the skin. The host of Celebrity Skin Talk is very conscious of his skin in the heat and warns Brits to not forget the SPF for the upcoming May heatwave.
Scott said we should only lay in the sun for an hour and moisturise after. He loves to use products from budget supermarkets such as Lidl and Aldi – costing as little as £3.
