Katie Piper Shares Sun Safety Tips in Green Bikini on Holiday

Katie Piper, the 40-year-old panellist from "Loose Women," has been enjoying a sun-soaked holiday while sharing her skincare routine as a burns survivor. In a recent social media post, Piper showcased her holiday look in a tiny two-piece and discussed the importance of sun protection, emphasizing her use of factor 30 sunscreen throughout the week. Piper, who suffered severe injuries and lost vision in one eye due to an acid attack by her ex-boyfriend in 2008, has become an advocate for skin care and awareness. She revealed that she has been using La Roche Posay Invisible Fluid, SPF50, under a visor, a tip she borrowed from her co-star Olivia Attwood. Piper expressed her gratitude for the inspiration, stating, "I saw this on her Stories... and it hasn't left my face for the whole week in Spain!" The television host has undergone numerous surgeries since the attack, including a recent procedure in December 2023, where she had to have her eye sewn shut to aid in healing. During a discussion with her fellow "Loose Women" panellists, she explained the tarsorrhaphy procedure, which involves the semi-permanent closure of the eye, often used for patients with corneal diseases. Piper's openness about her journey continues to inspire many, highlighting the importance of self-care and resilience in the face of adversity.
