Here in the UK dreaming of summer gets us through the cold, rainy months. Despite this, many of us don't prepare to look after our skin. With over 35% (up to 50%!) of Brits getting sunburn each year, this is your reminder to pick up some vegan suncream. Be sure to apply a thick layer and remember each part of you that will be exposed to the sun before you soak up those rays! Here's our list of our favourite highstreet cruelty free suncreams.
