From a picnic with the girls to a day at the beach with the kids, SPF should never be an afterthought. Here, Team IMAGE shares the SPF products they won't be without this summer.

When the sun finally decides to shine, the last thing you want is sunburn ruining the fun.

Whether you’re jetting off to a sun-soaked destination, taking in the beauty of the Irish countryside, or just enjoying an iced latte and a picnic with the girls in your local park, there’s one non-negotiable: SPF.

And when it comes to sun protection, Soltan, exclusive to Boots, is the ultimate name to know. Why? Because Soltan doesn’t just talk the talk, it’s a pioneer in suncare for both adults and kids. In fact, Soltan was the first brand to include 5-star UVA protection across its entire range and continues to lead the way today.

Here, Team IMAGE shares the Soltan products they are carrying with them everywhere this summer.

Amber O’ Shea, Social Media Manager

Boots’ Soltan has become a vital part of my summer bag essentials. From picnics to summer getaways, I love the products from this range. I always grab something when I’m travelling through the airport. This month, I’m visiting Lake Como in Italy, and you can be sure that I will be bringing along the Soltan Clear & Cool Protect Head & Scalp Suncare Mist, as well as the Soltan Protect & Moisturise SPF. I also adore the Soltan Protect & Moisturise Brightening Facial Suncare Lotion with Vitamin C because it moisturises, hydrates and brightens the skin too.

Meanwhile, every summer, this aftersun has always been my go-to.

Meghan Killalea, Marketing Account Executive

I have been a consistent sunscreen user since I was about 20. It’s the one thing I never leave the house without wearing, so it was number one on my list when going to a sunny picnic with the girls. I was super impressed with the Soltan Clear & Cool Protect Suncare Mist, it was so easy to apply, wasn’t sticky or greasy, and smelled like summer in a bottle.

I am also loving the Soltan Clear & Cool Protect Head & Scalp Suncare Mist as it’s an area of skin that can be very easily missed when applying your sunscreen, and can quite easily burn without you realising!

Dominique McMullan, Editorial Director 

“Whether it’s a picnic in the park with Team IMAGE or a day at the beach with my boys, I always have my SPF in tow. I like simplicity, so the Soltan Kids Protect & Moisturise Suncare Roll On SPF50+ and the Soltan Kids Protect & Moisturise Suncare Stick SPF50 suit my family perfectly. Both are a great match for kids’ sensitive skin. Now I have every excuse to grab an iced coffee in the sun.”

Soltan is the number one range you need for sun protection this summer, no matter your needs. You can now buy it in select Boots stores and online at Boots.ie
