'I'm a ginger who burns but this SPF cream saves my skin from sun damage'

Today could be the hottest day of the year as the heatwave hit the UK with high temperatures of 33C.

Many Britons are reminded to put on sun protection before they get out to enjoy the last days of summer.

And one redhead woman has found a beauty tip that kept her from getting sun damage — an SPF moisturiser from Olay.

The beauty brand has integrated the UV protection ingredient into face creams so shoppers won't miss the vital skincare if they are in a rush.

And Scottish redhead, Stephanie, praised the SPF day cream a skin saviour.

"Here's the thing about being a redhead," she said in a TikTok video.

"We can have no days off when it comes to wearing SPF protection on our skin and that's because redheads are three times more likely to get skin cancer from sun damage.

"So when people ask me what I use for my skin, I use SPF every single day.

"I have used Olay for years - my grandmother used it, my mother used it and it was just passed down on what I use on my skin."

Stephanie uses a lightweight Olay Vitamin C+ SPF30 gel cream and Olay Regenerist+ SPF30 cream to keep herself from sunburn.

She added: "If you want to age beautifully and make sure that you are not having early signs of skin damage and aging, then I urge you, population of the world, to make sure you protect your skin."

According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, redheads generally have pale skin that tends to burn rather than tan.

They read: "Studies have shown that having the redhead gene mutations is equivalent to an extra 21 years of sun exposure compared with people who don’t have them."

Olay's range of SPF day creams are available at Boots and the Niacinamide-infused Regenerist Day Cream is on half-price offer for £17, instead of £34.

If you are looking for plumper skin, the Olay Collagen Peptide +SPF30 is the one for you and it's also on offer for just £19.

For mist-lovers, Garnier's UV Protection Mist can be used as a top-up or over makeup and it's reduced to £9.60 on Lookfantastic.
