Which is the best after-sun?

With aloe vera, repairing ingredients, soothing formulas, vitamin C, moisturising care and antioxidants... which is the best after-sun? Keep reading and we will tell you everything in this post.

The arrival of summer and our daily visits to the beach or swimming pool mean we spend hours and hours under the effects of the sun, which can have negative consequences for our skin. That is why it is best to use specific products both before, during and after sun exposure, just as we explained in this post.

After-sun: what is it?

It is a lotion that we usually use in summer on the skin after sun exposure, but you have probably heard people say that if you use sunscreen, there is no need to use an after sun, right? Well, we can tell you now that this is not actually the case.

The sea, pool chlorine and the sun damage the skin, causing dehydration, so the most logical thing in this case is to include after sun in your routine.

Benefits

  • It repairs the skin thanks to its regenerating properties and helps prevent ageing.
  • It lowers the skin’s temperature, providing a refreshing feeling.
  • It restores skin elasticity and leaves it feeling soft and supple.
  • If you have suffered burns, it helps soothe the stinging sensation.
  • It helps your tan last longer and look more even.

The best after-sun for your skin

We know it. We are not going to tell you which is the single best after-sun, because... you really need to try these three. We are sure that afterwards you will understand why we could not choose just one.

La Roche Posay Posthelios face and body milk 400 ml

This is a melting gel that repairs, softens and restores lipids to dry skin exposed to long periods of sun, although it is recommended for all skin types. It is easy to use: simply apply it after showering, massaging the skin until it is absorbed. Want to know more about this product? Click here.

As for how to use it, just like the La Roche Posay Posthelios face and body milk, apply it after showering to clean, dry skin. Full information about Vichy Idéal Soleil Soothing After-sun Milk 300 ml here.

Filorga UV-Bronze After-Sun Nutri-Soothing Gel 200 ml

It is a triple-action gel that transforms into an oil to comfort and enhance the skin after sun exposure.

It nourishes and hydrates the skin thanks to its four key components (argan, apricot, almond and avocado) and hyaluronic acid. It also soothes the skin thanks to its amino acids and minerals and helps enhance your tan.

It can be applied to both the face and body using gentle massage after showering. Everything you need to know about this product by clicking here.
