This year’s Amazon Prime Day sale has arrived as much of the UK basks (or suffers?) through a heatwave. While this temperature boost has made us all remember how much we love handheld fans, it’s also a great reminder of the importance of daily sun protection. While SPF should always be a daily product, as UV levels climb even more in the summer months, SPF becomes even more of an everyday essential. This is true whether you’re commuting, sitting outdoors, or even heading out for a short walk.And this year’s Prime Day sale is the perfect excuse to stock up on your SPF favourites. Discounted products include both face and body formulas, from lightweight daily SPFs that layer easily under make-up to higher-factor options designed for longer days in the sun. You’ll also find products more suited for children, acne-prone skin and more. Below, I’ve rounded up some of the best Prime Day sunscreen deals currently available, all tried and tested by members of the IndyBest team.Read more: Best body sunscreens, testedAvène hydrance SPF30: Was £16.48, now £11.27, Amazon.co.uk(Lucy Smith/The Independent)When reviewed by Lucy Smith in her guide to the best moisturisers with SPF, she found that at first the Avène hydrance feels like a regular SPF cream, but quickly dissolves into your skin and feels much lighter.
