Sun Protection: Your Summer Skin Shield

As the UV index climbs, protecting your skin from sun damage is essential. A good SPF should be the first step in your summer skincare routine — not just for holidays abroad, but every day. Whether you prefer a lightweight facial sunscreen, a family-sized spray, or water-resistant formulas for beach days, you’ll find a wide selection at Boots and Superdrug in Victoria Place. Stay safe, stay glowing!

Make-up: Summer-Proof Your Look

Hotter days call for lighter, longer-lasting makeup. Think SPF-infused foundations, waterproof mascaras, and setting sprays to keep your look fresh from morning to night. Whether you’re after a dewy glow or a matte finish, Victoria Place’s Boots and Superdrug stock the latest in summer beauty to help you beat the heat — beautifully.

Tanning: Get the Glow Without the Burn

Want that sun-kissed look without risking sun damage? Tanning products are your best friend. From gradual moisturisers to instant bronzing mousses, you can achieve a natural-looking tan that suits your skin tone — all without stepping into harmful rays. With expert-loved brands and affordable favourites in-store, achieving a flawless faux tan has never been easier.

Extra Protection: The Must-Have Extras

Summer beauty isn’t just about skin and makeup — don’t forget those easy-to-miss essentials. Insect repellents, after-sun soothing gels, lip balms with SPF, and cooling mists are all key to staying comfortable and protected. Stock up on these summer must-haves across Victoria Place to make sure nothing spoils your sunny days.
