We're all getting better with this sunscreen thing, aren't we? By which I mean, buying factor 50, not 15, wearing it at home as well as on holiday and generally moving away from the mindset that getting a 'bit of colour' on your flesh (be that bronze or rouge) is the sole goal of summer life.

So it's clear the message is getting through. But if I had to guess, I'd say we may be letting ourselves down with reapplication.

Ok I don't need to guess; I know because until I found this tiny, sheer and, may I say, adorable SPF50 I found topping up a total drag too. Messed-up makeup, stained clothes and sticky hands - who'd have 'em? Not me anymore, and not you either, because here's the fix.
