Hello Sunday, Goodbye Sunburn

Updated: Sep 20

Every day is a SUN day 

Trends come and go in the beauty world, but one axiom remains constant: the importance of sun protection. Enter Hello Sunday, a brand that's not just participating in the conversation about SPF, but actively reshaping it. Launched in 2021, this innovative skincare line is challenging our perceptions of sun care and making daily SPF use not just a possibility, but a delightful reality.


Having spent her formative years in Australia—a country where sun awareness is as ingrained in the culture as surfing and barbecues— founder Amy Ford returned to the UK with a fresh perspective on SPF. What she found was a startling lack of daily sun protection habits, even among the beauty-savvy.


"There is a big misconception in colder climates that you only need SPF when it's warm and sunny," Ford notes. "But most of the damage happens to your skin in daily life." This realization became the catalyst for Hello Sunday's mission: to make SPF easy and encourage year-round protection.


Bridging the Gap Between Skincare & Sun Care


Hello Sunday's approach is refreshingly holistic. Rather than treating SPF as a separate step, they've seamlessly integrated it into daily skincare routines. Their product line is a testament to the belief that protective beauty is an everyday affair, designed to shield skin not just from UV rays, but also from pollution and other environmental aggressors that contribute to premature aging.


What sets Hello Sunday apart is their commitment to accessibility without compromising on quality. "We believe SPF is a right, not a privilege," Ford emphasizes. This philosophy translates into a range of products that are not only effective but also affordable, making high-level sun protection available to a wider audience.

Some of the brand's bestsellers include:


  • The One That's A Serum SPF 45 Hydrating Serum ($25) - This lightweight, hydrating serum delivers SPF 45 protection and skincare benefits. Infused with Hyaluronic Acid for hydration, Apple Extract for elasticity, and Vitamin C for brightening, it's a multitasking marvel that seamlessly fits into any skincare regimen.


  • The Everyday One SPF 50 Face Moisturiser ($22) - For those new to the world of daily SPF, this moisturizer is the perfect entry point. It offers broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection in a weightless formula that's suitable for balanced to oily skin types. With added Hyaluronic Acid and Moringa Seed extract, it hydrates and soothes while providing superior sun protection.


  • The Shimmer One SPF 45 Mineral Glow Stick ($22) - Innovation meets versatility in this unique product. It's a 100% mineral SPF 45 stick that doubles as a highlighter for face and body. Infused with sunflower wax, Hyaluronic Acid, and Vitamin E, it offers protection and radiance in one convenient package. It's a testament to Hello Sunday's commitment to making sun protection not just essential, but enjoyable.


A Year-Round Approach to Sun Protection


One of Hello Sunday's most significant contributions to the beauty conversation is their emphasis on year-round sun protection. They've deftly dispelled the myth that SPF is only necessary during summer months or on visibly sunny days. Their products are formulated to provide protection against the daily UV exposure that occurs even on cloudy days or in indoor environments.

Hello Sunday's ascent in the beauty world is further validated by their presence on Sephora.com, where six of their SKUs have found a home. This partnership not only expands the brand's reach but also solidifies its position as a serious player in the skincare arena.

The Future of Sun Protection


As we become increasingly aware of the impact of environmental factors on our skin, brands like Hello Sunday are leading the charge in reimagining sun protection. They're not just selling products; they're fostering a new culture of skincare—one where SPF is as fundamental to our daily routines as cleansing or moisturizing.


In a world where the beauty industry often seems saturated, Hello Sunday stands out not just for its products, but for its mission. They've taken something as seemingly mundane as sunscreen and transformed it into an exciting, accessible, and integral part of modern skincare. We're huge fans!


Hello Beauty understands that true beauty isn't just about looking good—it's about caring for ourselves in a way that's sustainable, effective, and enjoyable too.
