Why SPF is a Must-Have for Anti-Ageing

With the Queen spotted back out and about this week, besides the exciting Platinum Jubilee celebrations, we can only notice how great her skin looks at 96 years old!

Continuing to look so youthful, we can only assume that the Queen is sun-safe, using an SPF to help slow down the skin's ageing process. UV rays from the sun are a huge contributing factor to ageing skin – meaning any anti-ageing skincare routine must imperatively include the daily application of SPF.

Please see below a round-up of the best SPFs to help you look as good as Her Majesty at 96!
