It's fair to say that the Irish are a little lazy when it comes to sun safety and sun screen – and there's a lot research to prove it.

A new study carried out by La Roche-Posay and the Irish Cancer Society has found that 44% of adults only wear sunscreen in Ireland during the summer months with 37% only wearing it when the weather hits over 20 degrees.

And, 12% admit to not wearing sunscreen at all in Ireland due to a belief that they don’t need it because of our weather. Eeek.

We think that a massive reason why we're so relaxed about sun safety is that we are never really sure about how much sun we were exposing ourselves to – until now, this is.

In probably one of the most exciting developments in sun safety, sun experts La Roche-Posay has designed a world-first (Irish-designed) wearable UV monitor which tells the wearer exactly how much sun they’re exposed to, enabling them to protect themselves accordingly.

Called My UV Patch, the monitor is a transparent patch which adheres to the body. The patch contains photosensitive dyes that work with all skin tones, changing colour when exposed to UV rays to indicate varying levels of sun exposure.

The wearer simply takes a photo of the patch and uploads it to the La Roche-Posay My UV Patch mobile app, which will be available on both iOS and Android.

Oh, and did we mention this essential piece of summer kit is FREE? The patch is due to be available in Ireland from July onwards and will be distributed with advice, free of charge, from top dermatologists and GPs. 

“Non-melanoma skin cancer is still the most common cancer in Ireland and we have the highest reported rates of it in Europe,” says Kevin O’Hagan, Cancer Prevention Manager with the Irish Cancer Society.

“When caught in time it’s highly treatable. This means that educating consumers on sun behaviour and UV exposure is extremely important. 

“We hope that the My UV Patch skin sensor will deliver a step change in people’s awareness of UV exposure and sun protection.  It is fantastic to see smart technology being used in this way to help with such an important public health issue.”

Busted star Matt and Big Brother host Emma Willis have welcomed their third child into the world!

The dark-haired beauty confirmed the news on Twitter yesterday – and we're loving the name they gave their new daughter.

Emma wrote: "Thank you so much for all your lovely messages. Trixie arrived in the world on Wednesday. May the 4th be with her indeed!"

Trixie! We love the name – it's not too celeb-y, yet it suits their family perfectly.

Matt and Emma already have a daughter, Isabella, six and a son, Ace, four.

An insider told the Mirror: "They couldn't be more made up and are enjoying precious time together as a family."

Summer is FINALLY here! And we couldn't be happier.

But, do you ever notice that once the weather changes, it becomes drastically clear that our hair needs a bit of an update, too?

Hessions Hairdressing stylists love sharing their top tips and tricks for the changing trends, and here they have outlined four great new hairstyles that are going to be GORGEOUS for summer.

We already have our new gruaige planned out:

Bronde

"This flattering blend of blonde and brown tones has grown in popularity in the last year and is going nowhere! With celebrities like the ever stylish Olsen twins, Eva Longoria and Chrissy Teigen still sporting the look, bronde is set to be a big trend again this summer.

"As a hair colour, Bronde is perfect for clients looking for something soft, natural and not too high maintenance. It is also perfect for all skin tones and a great choice for someone looking to change their hair colour for the first time."

 

Ronse

"Stemming from the Bronde trend we have this stunning mix of red, copper and bronze tones. Perfect for red heads or brunettes looking to mix things up a bit, we love this super warm and rich hair colour.

"Think Julianne Moore and Emma Stone (pre MET gala). Ronse is guaranteed to liven up your hair style with stunning shine and make your eye colour pop!"

 

Baby Lights

"Babylights are perfect for anyone wanting to dip their toe into the world of hair colour without diving in head (or hair) first for an introduction to colour.

"Baby lights involves applying very fine strands of colour throughout the hair helping the hair to look multidimensional and boosting hair with colour in a natural way. Fans of this look include Rosie Huntington Whitely and Miranda Kerr."

 

Dip Dye

"Dip dye is still a big trend with the celebs such as Demi Lovato, Hilary Duff and Kylie Jenner.

"Blonde dip dye in brunette locks was huge last year but for 2016 it’s now done using more pastel colours & is perfect for the festival season ahead. Dip Dye is a cool and funky way to change up your hair with less of a colour commitment."

Comedian and actor Russell Brand is said to be expecting his first child with girlfriend Laura Gallacher, according to reports this morning.

The 40-year-old, who was married to Katy Perry for one year before their split in 2011, is known for his womanising ways but it looks like he may be settling down as The Sun is reporting that his 27-year-old girlfriend is five months pregnant.

The paper was told by a source that the Get Him to the Greek star is “absolutely made up" by the news, adding: "Russell might have bedded many of the world’s most stunning women but now it’s all about Laura and becoming a dad." 

“Most of his closest friends have children and he was desperate to start a family. He and Laura are thrilled to bits at the prospect of becoming parents. They have shared the happy news with close family and friends."

Russell and Laura have been on and off for nine years, splitting in 2007 before reconciling and then parting ways again in 2009.

We're not sure saying you've slept with some of "the world's most stunning women" in your baby announcement is appropriate, but sure look, at least he's happy.

Robbie Williams has some pretty big news this morning – he's making new music!

The singer confirmed that he signed with Sony Music to release his eleventh studio album.

Robbie said: "The team at Sony are professional, incredibly hungry, and have a great energy. They’re inspired, I’m inspired.

 

Very excited to announce my new album later in the year with @SonyMusicUK & Columbia Records #excited #sonymusic #columbiarecords

"I’m more ready than I ever have been and I’m totally convinced I’m in the right place. I look forward to working on this album, which is an album I’m immensely proud of, in this exciting new partnership with Sony Music."

However, any Take That fans might be a bit miffed by the news since there were rumours last year of Robbie making a comeback with the group.

We just can't wait to hear what new tracks Robbie has up his sleeve.

It was a total shocker last week when Blac Chyna announced her pregnancy, that we hardly even believed it.

Many took to social media to fill the Internet with theories of revenge, and while some of them were very funny, it seems that we're the only ones laughing since Rob sent out a very serious and heartfelt message to his baby mama-to-be.

Celebrating Mother's Day over in the US, Rob took to Instagram to share messages about nearly all the women in his life.

He wrote about Kim, Kourtney, Kris and his grandmother MJ in four separate posts.

 

We can't even tell what's going on in this family anymore. Do they love each other? Hate each other? Who knows…?

After 34 years of marriage it is being reported that Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne have decided to go their separate ways.

Ozzy infamously had a drinking problem for years which caused its problems within the marriage. The couple also made it through Sharon's battle with colon cancer back in 2002.

After meeting when she was just 18 years old, Sharon ended up replacing Ozzy's dad as his manager and the pair married in 1982.

A source has told E! News that Ozzy has moved out of the house after a mutual agreement to split.

The pair have been iconic since their early days, so it's easy to see why people are heartbroken by the break-up:

Congratulations to Brody Jenner and Kaitlynn Carter, the happy couple are engaged!

Brody took to Instagram to share the announcement in a really sweet post.

He captioned the adorable photo of the pair together: “On May 4th 2016 I got engaged to my lover and my best friend @kaitlynn_carter. I couldn't be more in love with this woman and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with her.”

Awww!

Kaitlynn shared the same photo, writing: "This trip has been memorable for many reasons… happiest girl in the world!!!"

The couple started dating in 2014 (and we think everyone can remember the fiasco of Kim not letting Kaitlynn to her wedding), but we're delighted for them!

We have to admit, we all love a good KFC here in Shemazing! HQ from time to time, but this new item just sounds BIZARRE.

The food chain is taking finger lickin' good to a whole new level by introducing nail polish to its menu.

Yes, nail polish.

According to AdWeek, the chicken stop is launching two limited edition, flavoured nail polishes for its food campaign in Hong Kong. 

Combining the venture with the company that makes their secret chicken spice mix, McCormick, KFC has created two shades of nail polish inspired by their two most popular recipes: Original and Hot & Spicy.

The Original colour is a light nude sahde, and the Hot & Spicy is a bright orange-red tone. They also both appear to have flecks of glitter mixed in… Fancy.

Oh, and did we mention its edible? We'll just leave you with that thought there…

He's calmed down since his Naked Chef days, but it seems that Jamie Oliver still has a very… erm, schoolboy-like mind.

Saturday Kitchen viewers were shocked this morning as Jamie made two very rude (but, admittedly hilarious) references live on air.

But, after the chef slipped a couple of sexual innuendos into the cooking show, some fans hit out and said the show was "car crash TV".

The first shock was how he reacted when Joe Hurd said that their fellow guest Anna Jones is a vegetarian.

Jamie said: "Are you vegetarian? Since when? Really? I remember putting pork in your mouth. I know her cook books are vegetarian but you use to love pork."

And then later on in the show, while asking Anna to clean a plate, he said: "Give that plate a good old rim job".

However, after the backlash, other fans began to praise him for lightening the show up a bit, with one Twitter user saying: Saturday Kitchen is EPIC today. It's like watching Father Jack minus the swearing… But then there is still time yet," and another admitting, "most amazing episode ever. Was supposed to leave home twenty minutes ago but just can't miss this wonderment!"

Ah, Jamie. You never fail to surprise us.
