Hello Sunday’s Top 3 Buys
Whittling down Happy Sunday’s best suncare products is one of the hardest edits we’ve ever done (seriously) – but here are the ones to get you started.
1. The DIY Drops
Suitable for: Combination, dry, normal, oily, acne-prone and sensitive (aka ALL skin types)
The One That's a Mini Serum is a must for anyone who fancies themselves as an at-home alchemist. These ‘do-it-all’ drops are customisable – apply as a solo serum or mix in with your moisturiser/foundation as a last step within your skincare routine.
Infused with moisture-maxing hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, this non-sticky, fragrance-free serum is designed to shield you against sun damage, protect skin from other daily aggressors (pollution and blue light, we’re looking at you) and works to help strengthen your skin barrier.
Loved by beauty editors – Sali Hughes is a fan – it’s even small enough to fit in your carry-on bag. A must for thirsty faces.
How to use it?
Apply generously (at least ½ teaspoon) to clean, dry skin after (or instead of) your daily moisturiser and before makeup. Always wait 60 seconds for an SPF to fix before applying makeup to avoid product pilling.
HS Hack
Want to perk-up your midday makeup? Pat a couple of drops onto skin for instant ‘fresh-face’.
2. The Quick Stick
Suitable for: All skin tones and types including sensitive skin
The one for anyone on the go, this invisible, multipurpose sun stick is stress-free sun care at its best. The Take-Out One allows even the busiest types to slot SPF protection into their daily routine, no excuses.
Slipped into your gym/work/weekend away bag, The Take-Out One leaves zero-white cast or residue, and is packed with hyaluronic acid and ultra-nourishing oils for face and body.
Think of it as 2022’s very best beauty buy – for time-poor types, super-organised types, ‘keep-meaning-to-but…’ types and have-it-in-your-handbag-just-incase-ers. Which is basically all of us, right?
How to use it
Swipe over skin for swift sun protection. Reapply every two hours.
HS Hack
Reformulated with a fresh, *new* lime, geranium and mint fragrance to energise your skin, and mood.
3. The ‘Well’ Gel
Suitable for: All skin types, including sensitive skin
For when you need to call in the big guns, there’s The Recovery One – an envy-inducing gel mask that soothes stressed-out skin, bringing it back to its deliciously dewy, ‘Gosh, you look well’, glow-getting glory.
Packed with shea butter, calming oat prebiotics (to help boost skin thickness) and cult ingredient CICA (to improve moisture retention), this ‘makes-a-difference’ moisture mask is best deployed on pamper days, or when your skin just needs a little extra zhuzh. Your face will love you for it.
How to use it
Apply to the face and neck. Remove after 15 minutes with water, or leave it on overnight for a deliciously deep hydration hit.
HS Hack
Use at room temperature or fridge-chilled on hot, sticky summer days.

Sorry to go full Baz Lurhrmann on you, but wear sunscreen, please.
- Apply it EVERY day – link it to your AM routine alongside things like brushing your teeth to form a habit
- Apply 30 minutes before going outside
- Try the 2-finger rule – 2 finger-lengths of SPF per section (that’s face; left arm; right arm etc)
- Make SPF the last step of your skincare routine
- Wait 60 seconds before applying makeup to avoid pilling
- Reapply SPF every 2 hours and straight away after swimming or sweating
