An alarming statistic from Melanoma UK shows that 90% of melanoma cases are preventable, prompting a parliamentary inquiry into sun protection.
LOOKFANTASTIC are supporting the inquiry, sharing results from their independent SPF survey which found that 67% of people are aware of the dangers of sun damage, with 8 in 10 people thinking that sunscreen should be exempt from VAT.
They stressed the importance of UV safety awareness and proposed removing VAT on SPF 30+ products. Meeting with MP Carolyn Harris - who is leading the initiative with The British Beauty Council - was a significant milestone in their campaign to make sun protection more accessible.
