Fancy winning over £250 worth of SPF goodies from Hello Sunday? Here's how

Metro journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission – learn more Hey, you… yes you! How would you like to win over £250 worth of gorgeous Hello Sunday treats? Forget the thick, greasy sunscreens of the past, this UK-based brand is all about lightweight, skin-loving formulas that slot into your routine without any fuss. The packaging is cute, the names are playful (like 'The One That's a Serum'), and the products do more than just protect you from the sun – they also shield your skin from pollution and blue light. How good is that? Better yet, they're vegan, cruelty-free, and packed with good-for-you ingredients like hyaluronic acid and vitamin C. Basically, they've taken all the boring bits out of SPF and made it something you'll actually want to wear every day – which, we hate to remind you, but you should be doing all year round too. Now we've teamed up with Hello Sunday to give one of you over £250 worth of goodies, including 'The One That's A Serum' (worth £23), and 'The Mineral One SPF 50' (worth £26). The ultra-light, glow-giving formula that 'The Mineral One SPF' has is basically skincare's answer to a triple-shot oat latte: hydrating, energising, and totally addictive. It glides on like a dream (no chalky cast in sight), leaving your skin dewy, calm, and ready to face the day. Packed with antioxidant-rich Kukui Oil and vitamin E, it's like a mini shield for your face – fighting off free radicals, smoothing fine lines, and helping to fade dark spots while you get on with your life. And thanks to hyaluronic acid, your skin stays plump and juicy whether it's heatwave season or mid-winter chill. Fragrance-free, featherlight, and designed for everyday wear, this is SPF that works hard without showing off. Just like you. Someone called 'PinkLady' from Belfast hailed it 'perfection for sensitive rosacea skin', and went on to add: 'This is perfect for easily dehydrated, sensitive rosacea-prone skin that reacts to most chemical sunscreens. It's very emollient, which is not pleasant at first, but dries to a nice satin finish. Minimal white cast. I'm also acne prone, and this caused no breakouts.' Martha followed suit and also mentioned that it was a 'great option for deeper skin tones', and went on to say: 'For reference I'm a Fitzpatrick 6. I use 1 pipette full (1/2 suggested amount) with 1 finger of mineral sunscreen (1/2 recommended amount) to get full factor 50 coverage. Mineral sunscreens do have a white tint as they are white pigments but going it this way I do not get a white cast. I have told all my black friends about this as white cast is our regular struggle. This has saved me so much time with not having to apply makeup to make a mineral sunscreen work for me.' If you're looking for a standout product, try 'The One That's a Serum SPF 50'. This featherlight SPF 50 serum is the kind of overachiever we love – moisturiser, sunscreen, and glow-booster all rolled into one sleek little bottle. It's packed with antioxidants, brightening vitamin C, and plumping hyaluronic acid, so your skin gets a hit of hydration, protection, and radiance in one go. No white cast, or greasy finish either – just smooth, dewy skin that looks like it's had eight hours of sleep and a green juice. It sinks in like a serum (because it is one) and works hard behind the scenes to fend off UV rays, pollution, and those pesky early signs of ageing. Basically, it's your skincare routine—streamlined, simplified, and seriously effective. All-year-round glow? Sorted. Below you'll find the list of all the products you can win. The Everyday One Moisturiser SPF 50 – worth £18 The One That's a Serum SPF 50 – worth £23 The Take Out One Invisible Sun Stick SPF 30 – worth £20.00 The One For Your Lips SPF 50 – worth £8 The One For Your Hands SPF 30 – worth £10 The One For Your Eyes SPF 50 – worth £18 The Illuminating One SPF 50 – worth £23 The Mineral One SPF 50 – worth £26 The Rose One Tinted Lip Balm SPF 50 – worth £10 The Mauve One Tinted Lip Balm SPF 50 – worth £10 The Everyday One Mineral Moisturiser SPF 50 – worth £24 Recovery One Mask – worth £19 The Everyday One Moisturiser SPF 50 75ml – worth £24 The One For Your Body SPF 30 – worth £18 It's worth mentioning that this competition ends on June 13, so what are you waiting for?

Major fashion retailer with 180 UK stores confirms it will shut ‘favourite' shop in just DAYS

A MAJOR fashion retailer with 180 UK stores has confirmed it will shut one of its 'favourite' shops in just days. The store creates product ranges across women's, men's, kids, footwear and accessories. 2 2 The outdoor-inspired clothing retailer FatFace has revealed that its store in Queensgate Shopping Centre will close permanently on June 15. A notice in the shop window states: 'Thank you for shopping in our Peterborough store. "Our last day here is 15 June 2025.' The closure comes 20 months after FatFace, which was founded in 1988, was acquired by the leading clothing retailer Next, headquartered in Leicester. FatFace announced a pre-tax loss of £3.2 million last October, which was in part attributed to costs related to the acquisition. Sharing the news on the We Love Peterborough Facebook group, shoppers reacted to the closure. The post said: "I have to say it's shame to see that Fat Face will be closing down in Queensgate. "After speaking with someone in the store for confirmation, I'm afraid that they are not moving to an alternative location either, they are closing permanently for us. "Is this a shop that you shopped in? If you want anything, you'll need to get it quick as it closed in a couple of week's time." Members of the group were quick to comment and one replied: "Another decent store closing, might as well knock Queensgate down, just not worth going into town these days." Popular retailer to RETURN 13 years after collapsing into administration and shutting 236 stores Another disappointed shopper added: "Queensgate is doomed. "First John Lewis then M&S, there's nothing left there now. "They should have left flagship stores alone. It used to be a good place. "The whole city feels tawdry and dirty. I don't go there anymore." Why are retailers closing stores? RETAILERS have been feeling the squeeze since the pandemic, while shoppers are cutting back on spending due to the soaring cost of living crisis. High energy costs and a move to shopping online after the pandemic are also taking a toll, and many high street shops have struggled to keep going. However, additional costs have added further pain to an already struggling sector. The British Retail Consortium has predicted that the Treasury's hike to employer NICs from April will cost the retail sector £2.3billion. At the same time, the minimum wage will rise to £12.21 an hour from April, and the minimum wage for people aged 18-20 will rise to £10 an hour, an increase of £1.40. The Centre for Retail Research (CRR) has also warned that around 17,350 retail sites are expected to shut down this year. It comes on the back of a tough 2024 when 13,000 shops closed their doors for good, already a 28% increase on the previous year. Professor Joshua Bamfield, director of the CRR said: "The results for 2024 show that although the outcomes for store closures overall were not as poor as in either 2020 or 2022, they are still disconcerting, with worse set to come in 2025." It comes after almost 170,000 retail workers lost their jobs in 2024. End-of-year figures compiled by the Centre for Retail Research showed the number of job losses spiked amid the collapse of major chains such as Homebase and Ted Baker. It said its latest analysis showed that a total of 169,395 retail jobs were lost in the 2024 calendar year to date. This was up 49,990 – an increase of 41.9% – compared with 2023. It is the highest annual reading since more than 200,000 jobs were lost in 2020 in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced retailers to shut their stores during lockdowns. The centre said 38 major retailers went into administration in 2024, including household names such as Lloyds Pharmacy, Homebase, The Body Shop, Carpetright and Ted Baker. Around a third of all retail job losses in 2024, 33% or 55,914 in total, resulted from administrations. Experts have said small high street shops could face a particularly challenging 2025 because of Budget tax and wage changes. Professor Bamfield has warned of a bleak outlook for 2025, predicting that as many as 202,000 jobs could be lost in the sector. "By increasing both the costs of running stores and the costs on each consumer's household it is highly likely that we will see retail job losses eclipse the height of the pandemic in 2020." Another added: "I absolutely love this shop! I'll be sad to see it go, a real shame and another loss for Peterborough shipping centre." "I only go into Queensgate to get my nails done and pop in Fatface. I'm really sad it's closing. Nowhere to get clothes for my age now," said another. "Another one bites the dust sadly. Love fatface," said a fifth dissapointed shopper. While another poster wrote: "Fat Face have also closed in various locations from Aberdeen to Sheffield to Gloucester this year. "Anyone thinking retail clothes stores closing is just a Peterborough thing is sadly mistaken. Same happened with John Lewis and Marks and Spencer on a bigger scale. "We have a new occupant imminently for the old John Lewis store, and new shops like Sostrene Greene that people can't find it in themselves to be positive about, it's easier to moan I guess." The news comesafter IKEA revealed yesterday that it is shutting another UK store in just a fortnight's time after 'lessons learned' amid a customer backlash. And that a major high street name is pulling the plug on one of its stores in just two weeks. It's already
