Why you should wear SPF
The NHS recommends spending time in the shade when the sun is strongest during 11am and 3pm from March to October.
But you should still take some precautions, including wearing an SPF of factor 30 or higher.
Most people do not apply enough sunscreen, the NHS note.
They say: "As a guide, adults should aim to apply around 6 to 8 teaspoons of sunscreen if you're covering your entire body.

"If sunscreen is applied too thinly, the amount of protection it gives is reduced.
"If you're worried you might not be applying enough SPF30, you could use a sunscreen with a higher SPF."
The importance of sun cream in your skincare routine
Dermatologist and skincare enthusiast Andrea Suarez - known as Dr Dray - revealed why you should wear suncream.
The one thing you can do that will make the biggest difference - and this matters for all ages - is protecting your skin from the sun, Andrea stressed.
"The vast majority of external aging is due to exposure to ultraviolet radiation," she continued, not because you're "not using some jazzy serum or layering 90 different things on your face everyday".
"If you're not doing in your 20s, get on that now."
But she said the use of sun cream alone doesn't go far enough. Andrea urged that you also wear sun-protective clothing like broad-brimmed hats and long sleeves, on top of not staying out too long in the sun.
Doing this over your lifetime - and all year, not just during the summer or on sunny days - "will reduce the visible signs of photoageing", Andrea said.
Those are wrinkles, muddled pigmentation and sagging skin.
