B&M Top Tip: Packing your full wardrobe? Avoid those last-minute penalties at the airport with these luggage scales to ensure you stay within the allocated allowance.

Suncream & After Sun

We all love a good tan, but that doesn't mean you should waltz around unprotected against those harmful rays. Whether you're on a city break or at a beach retreat, stay protected with our range of high-quality suncream and soothing after sun lotions.

Beach holidays are perfect for families with young children, but if you're planning on soaking up that sun and going for a dip, it's especially important to get creamed up.

Specially formulated for children's delicate skin, Garnier Ambre Solaire Kids Protection Mist contains anti-sand protection, making it an ideal option for families who love to spend time at the beach. And for skin that burns easily, Malibu's Sun Lotion Spray is the ideal choice for on-the-go protection.

Finally, when the sun goes down, it's time for Ambre Solaire After Sun Spray.- it's not only great for sunburn relief, but to moisturise skin following sun exposure. 

Holiday Clothing

There's nothing like dressing to the nines on your hols, and our stylish and comfortable holiday clothing collection will have everything you need to enhance those tropical fits.

Get ready for those city break walks and beach strolls with these Ladies' Summer Walkers. Available in navy, blue and black, they're the perfect lightweight shoe with a memory foam insole for extra comfort. For men, you can't go wrong with our Men's Clogs to make those summer walks a breeze, and these Kids Jelly Shoes are just perfect for letting your little ones express themselves on holiday.

B&M Top Tip: Keep the sun out of your kids' eyes with these fashionable Alphabet Caps - available in a range of styles and colours to match their fits!

Electricals & Accessories

Just because you're away, doesn't mean you can't be home. Plug in, stay connected, and share all those memories with our selection of travel-friendly electricals and handy accessories.

From vlogging to fire selfies, this Summer Vibes 2 in 1 Selfie Stick helps you do it all. It features an extending selfie stick reaching up to 60cm, and a stable tripod to secure those pics in unusual places.

If you're all about curating on-the-go, personal content, why not take the Summer Vibes Phone Grip & Tripod Set with you? An ideal portable video studio, it's great for live streaming vlogging, walking tours, and interviewing.

But what's the use in all this amazing gear if you can't keep your tech charged up? Luckily, Blaupunkt's Worldwide Travel Adaptor can be used in over 150 countries, meaning you won't have to worry about running low on charge wherever you are.
