In case you missed it, summer’s here.
The weather is getting warmer, the days are longer and the beach is calling. Well, not for everyone.
You see, there are different types of summer people. Four, to be specific.
First, you’ve got your sun (safe) worshippers who love nothing more than laying out on the sand under a beach umbrella pretending they’re at a European beach resort. Then, there’s the adventure types who are up early walking the dog and will hardly spend a second inside because they literally don’t stop. Ever.
You’ve also got the social butterflies who live for the endless string of summer party, drinks, barbecue and picnic invitations. And finally, spare a thought for the people who secretly kind of hate summer because, sweat. And heat. And grass rashes.
No matter what your summer personality, there’s a NIVEA sunscreen to suit you.
Now, enough chat. Take our quiz and see what kind of summer vibe you’re feeling below!

What’s your number one priority when choosing a sunscreen (apart from being protected by the sun, of course)?
Your summer personality is: The Shade Queen.
To all the Shade Queens out there: we see you and we feel your pain. Summer isn’t your favourite season, so you’re the one sitting in full shade covered in a towel, sunnies and a massive hat while your mates lounge in the sun. You might even wear a chic driving glove to keep your driving hand from seeing the sun. (OK, you probably don’t wear a driving glove…) Shade Queens love the social aspect of summer, just not the bit where you have to sit in the sun getting all sweaty, itchy and hot and bothered.

Your summer personality is: The Ultra Sporty Sort.
If it’s summer, you are outside. We repeat. ANYTHING, OUTSIDE. Sure, there’s a time and place for watching Netflix and sleeping in, but glorious summer days are not it. More often than not, you’re up early walking the dog or out with the kids, playing in your social sports team, heading down to the beach in the late afternoon to watch the sunset. You also literally lift up everyone around you, forcing encouraging your loved ones to get out and about with you.

High performance sunscreen with four-hour sweat and water resistance.
Always read the label. Follow the directions for use. Prolonged high-risk sun exposure should be avoided. Use in accordance with directions is required for effective sun protection.
Your summer personality is: The Beach Creature.
If you were an animal, you’d be a lizard because you will be lying at the beach almost every single day during the summer months. Except when you have to go to work. Annoying. You’re a sun (safe) worshipper who feels most at home on a towel on the sand at a secret beach on the locals know about - crowded tourist beaches are for one-off beach visits, not seasoned beach professionals. There’s something about feeling the sand in your toes and hearing the ocean that makes you feel like your very best self. You also own way too many pairs of swimmers!

Your summer personality is: The Social Butterfly.
Summer to you means one thing above all else. PARTY TIME! Some people get exhausted by the endless summer party invites, but not you. You live for it. You say YES to all the after work drinks, backyard barbies, house parties, beach picnics and Sunday sessions. You get your energy from having your favourite people around you and will rarely turn down a chance to catch up. In other words, Daylight Savings is your jam. Bring on long summer days and balmy summer nights.
