UVB but firms and moisturises,<br />

green tea and avocado.<br />
STEP FOUR: reach for an<br />
SPF lip balm. You may notice<br />
here that I’ve fast-forwarded<br />
without talking about body<br />
suncare. That’s because I think<br />
it’s a matter of personal choice<br />
whether you want to fry yourself<br />
dark bronze (with all the sun<br />
damage that goes along with that) – or do as I do and slowly<br />
build a lovely golden glow from the shade of my umbrella. And<br />
I’ve a hunch you’re going to go ahead and either buy an SPF10<br />
or something way up in the SPF stratosphere – and not much<br />
any expert is going to say will change your strategy. What I will<br />
say is that there are some terrific sunscreens out there, in textures<br />
that are more skin-compatible and pleasurable to use than ever;<br />
ranges I like include Clarins, Clinique, Lancaster and (at the<br />
affordable end) the Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration range.<br />
But what you do need to pack (which you might not have<br />
thought about) is that SPF lip tint – because the lips are supervulnerable<br />
(it’s the way they’re angled to the sun), and through<br />
a combo of sea breezes and salt can become incredibly dry.<br />
I’m a massive fan of Lanolips Tinted Balm SPF30, £7.99 for<br />
12.5g (the SPF30 version, as opposed to the widely available<br />
SPF15, is at feelunique.com); it slicks lips with a sheen of sheer<br />
colour – and my favourite shade is Rhubarb, which would<br />
frankly flatter any complexion. Protection and glamour, in one.<br />
STEP FIVE: stow your favourite, richest hair mask<br />
or conditioner in your beach basket. Make a ritual of<br />
slathering generously onto wet hair straight after a dip;<br />
you can shower it out later, but the sooner you put back<br />
what seawater and chlorine take out of hair, the better.<br />
And honestly, this is all you need to think about. Anything<br />
else you choose to do will be because it’s actually part of your<br />
psychological preparation towards switching off. Yes, you’ll<br />
want to get waxed, or at least shave your legs, depending on<br />
how sprout-y your body hair is. By all means book yourself<br />
a manicure and a pedicure: there’s something wonderfully<br />
satisfying about lounging with a book and catching an<br />
occasional glimpse of glossy red or mermaid-sparkly toenails.<br />
But summer is short. Holidays<br />
even shorter. So my advice<br />
is to not to spend one more<br />
minute than you really,<br />
really have to on holiday<br />
‘prepping’ – but to get out<br />
there and make hay/whoopee/<br />
cocktails, while (everything<br />
crossed) the sun shines.<br />
