Facebook marketplace purchase UK- protected?

Facebook marketplace purchase-am I cover as a buyer? I am buying some suncream and the seller has said she will do a deal on suncream and I would have to pay postage and the PayPal fee for goods and services, but I’d have to pay using her Dad’s email which is a different name to the seller on FB that I am buying from. If I send the money via goods and services and state what the items I am buying are, am I going to be covered by PayPal should they not deliver the posted items? UK BASED. Thanks

That depends on many factors all listed in Paypals buyer protection policy for you to read so you can risk assess your transactions.
Legal (bottom right of Paypals pages) > user agreement > buyer protection.
